Bacon $food
gmalivuk:
Comic 1055's specials made me think that bacon muffins would probably be worth attempting to make. I have previously put bacon in a mole sauce and eaten it with rice. (Note that that's the Spanish word mole, which bears no relationship to the animal known in English by a name spelled the same way.)
Well, last week, there was another Adventure in Mixing Bacon with Other Yummy Things. This time, the chocolate chip cookies described here. The lovely PictureSarah (of the xkcd fora, on which I'm more active than here) made a batch for me, in return for some help I gave her when she was preparing for exams last semester.
First, the dough:
It didn't hold together very well, probably owing to all the chunks of stuff in it. But it was really damn tasty on its own, as all decent cookie dough ought to be.
Then, the balls:
PictureSarah presenting one batch of pre-cookies, about to be put into the oven. They were, in a way, genuine chocolate salty balls.
Later, the cookies:
Freshly out of the oven. I of course had to have one immediately, as I always do with chocolate chip cookies, even though it was very burny on my hands and in my mouth. It was also really, really delicious (though perhaps too heart-attacky to have as many as I would have normal chocolate chip cookies).
Finally, the enjoyment thereof:
I don't know about the latte special in the comic, but I can assure you that cookies are always vegetarian (though not necessarily vegan). So don't let a little thing like "bacon is the cured belly of a swine carcass" dissuade you from trying these cookies yourself.
Has anyone else put bacon in unusual dishes, or made other strange-sounding mixes of food items that might *seem*, at first, not to go together at all?
RedLion:
My god, that looks absolutely delicious! I love bacon with a passion. I could eat it with just about anything..so long as it's the greasy, chewy kind. Not the hard, crunchy kind.
stella:
I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty high and the thought of a bacon muffin is SO GOOD right now nyom nyom nyom
ummmkay:
I cannot imagine a bacon cookie ever tasting good.
Ever.
Johnny C:
That's a bacon chocolate chip cookie?
What kind of America is this.
