Special Ingredients[]
Bacon Powder[]
- Cook bacon and set aside.
- Place the bacon fat in a food processor and add 2 parts Tapioca Maltodextrose.
- Mix at slow speed.
The maltodextrose absorbs the bacon fat and creates the bacon powder.
Bacon Olive Trio[]
- Bacon Mousse Olive: Place cream cheese and cooked chopped bacon in food processor, mix until smooth. Place mousse into pastry bag and use it to fill a large, pitted Spanish olive.
- Deep-Fried Bacon-Wrapped Olive: Wrap a thin slice of raw pancetta around a large Spanish olive, secure with toothpick. Pan-sear the bacon fat until crispy.
- Prosciutto-Stuffed Olive: Tightly roll thinly sliced prosciutto and insert into a large, pitted Spanish olive.
