BRITISH BACON BUTTY/ SANDWICH

A bacon sandwich is a very British breakfast. This is my favourite version of it. The type of bacon to use is back bacon, not the typical American streaky bacon. Everyone has their favourite version of this recipe- this is just my take on a classic! My nephew is a picky eater and this sandwich was his first ever taste of bacon! To make this Weight Watchers friendly, I sometimes use the bacon medallions that have the fat trimmed off- if using these, reduce the cooking time so they don't dry out. This is also excellent served in a white roll with a fried egg.

THE GREAT BRITISH BACON BUTTY - BACON SANDWICH



The Great British Bacon Butty - Bacon Sandwich image

The news is out - scientists at my old university, (Leeds University in West Yorkshire) have discovered the PERFECT way to make a "Bacon Butty", that quintessential British sandwich, and they have devised a mathematical formula for it!! The bacon butty is one of my FAVOURITE sandwiches of all times.......especially when doused in HP Sauce or Worcestershire Sauce! Here is my method - it's hardly a recipe, more of an idea and an assembly job! I have posted their mathematical formula at the end of the recipe - my formula is: Eat your bacon butty whilst it's still hot and crispy!! Please increase the quantities as needed. I like to use smoked bacon, but any good quality dry cure bacon will be fine.

Time 9m

Yield 1 Bacon Butty, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 -3 slices back bacon, per person
2 slices of farmhouse bread, 1cm to 2cm thick, per person, OR
1 crusty roll, per person
butter (optional)
HP steak sauce (optional)
Worcestershire sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook the bacon under a preheated oven grill for seven minutes at about 240C/475F - turning half way through the cooking time.
  • Cook until crispy, but not burnt or too dry.
  • (You can also fry the bacon in a pan if you wish).
  • Butter the two slices of bread and place the grilled or fried bacon inside the two slices of bread to make a sandwich.
  • Add sauces to taste.
  • Enjoy!
  • The bread can also be toasted if you wish! And, you can make this sandwich with a crusty bread roll.
  • The Scientist's Formula:.
  • Four researchers at the Department of Food Science at Leeds University in the UK spent more than 1,000 hours testing 700 variations on the traditional bacon sandwich.
  • They tried different types and cuts of bacon, cooking techniques, types of oil and a range of cooking times at different temperatures.
  • A shortlist was then tested with computers to measure the texture of each sandwich.
  • Fifty volunteers also judged each sandwich according to its taste, texture and flavour.
  • The formula is: N = C + {fb (cm) . fb (tc)} + fb (Ts) + fc . ta, where N=force in Newtons required to break the cooked bacon, fb=function of the bacon type, fc=function of the condiment/filling effect, Ts=serving temperature, tc=cooking time, ta=time or duration of application of condiment/filling, cm=cooking method, C=Newtons required to break uncooked bacon.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bacon: The best bacon for a bacon butty is thick-cut, unsmoked bacon. This will give you a crispy, flavorful bacon that's not too salty.
  • Cook the bacon properly: The key to a great bacon butty is crispy bacon. To achieve this, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until it's browned and crispy on both sides.
  • Use fresh, high-quality bread: The bread is just as important as the bacon in a bacon butty. Look for a fresh, soft loaf of white bread or a crusty sourdough roll.
  • Don't skimp on the butter: Butter is essential for a bacon butty. It adds richness and flavor to the sandwich and helps to keep the bread from getting soggy.
  • Add your favorite toppings: There are many optional toppings that you can add to your bacon butty. Some popular choices include ketchup, brown sauce, HP sauce, or fried eggs.

Conclusion:

The bacon butty is a classic British sandwich that is enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a simple sandwich to make, but it's packed with flavor. With its crispy bacon, soft bread, and generous helping of butter, the bacon butty is the perfect sandwich to enjoy for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
