Homemade Bacon Made with Ingredients You Have at Home!
I heard a similar way to make a bacon on the radio a long time ago. I changed it to suit my taste.
This is homemade, so you can cut into generously thick slices. The umami of the meat is concentrated.
Houjicha makes the bacon fragrant and lighter. Black tea makes it spicier.
Don't worry about the tea leaves sticking to the meat, they give extra flavor to the bacon! For as much as you like. Recipe by chiaki55

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Sprinkle a generous amount of salt and black pepper on both sides of the pork. Put the pork into a resealable bag and leave to rest in the fridge for about 3 days. Every time you open the fridge, massage the meat.
- 2
Line a heat-proof dish with parchment paper and sprinkle with tea. Place the pork (with the fat side down) on the tea and sprinkle tea leaves on top.
- 3
Roast the pork slowly in an oven pre-heated to 120˚C for 90 minutes.
- 4
Remove the tea leaves off the pork using chopsticks while the pork is still hot.
- 5
Use the tea of your choice! I used houjicha and mango flavoured tea in the photo. Different kinds of tea leaves create different flavours.
- 6
After it has cooled down, wrap the pork tightly in cling film. Put into a resealable bag to keep. You can cut into slices and freeze.

Homemade Bacon Homemade Bacon
Smoked bacon can be very expensive, so I decided to make it myself. Real bacon is very labor intensive, but through trial and error I managed to make yummy bacon without too much effort.The bacon can be smoked easier if it is cut into 2cm slices. If it is too thick, the flavor won't penetrate to the center. If the smoke color is too weak, you might want to try smoking it a second time. Also, make sure to thoroughly wipe the meat dry before smoking, otherwise the smoke will not penetrate the meat well. Recipe by Kurodai Chinuko

Homemade Bacon - in the Oven Homemade Bacon - in the Oven
Just like making ham or Char Siu pork, sprinkle salt and let the meat rest to bring out the umami. Bake at a low temperature to increase the flavour. Creating a bacon-like flavour through the addition of salt was a challenge. I think the salt content here is just perfect.You can achieve an effect close to smoking by using black tea. You want to adjust the salt weight to equal 3~5% of the weight of the meat. Adjust the cooking time to correspond to the weight of the meat being cooked. Recipe by Okaraseijin -
Homemade Canadian Bacon Homemade Canadian Bacon
#mycookbook. It's kinda expensive in the store, if you have all the stuff, spices, curing salt, charcoal, time, and porkloin it's not as expensive to make at home. A whole loin and you use 6-7 inches of it you will indeed save money.

Homemade Bacon Smoked with Barley Tea in a Pot Homemade Bacon Smoked with Barley Tea in a Pot
I usually drink oolong tea, but I was given barley tea bags, so I decided to use them to smoke bacon instead of smoking chips. Barley tea made a very aromatic bacon.You can use any spices you like. I find nutmeg and cinnamon essential. You can make your own spice mix. The procedure itself is very simple. Drying the meat for 30 minutes, followed by smoking. Just after smoking, I ate the bacon while it was still hot, and it was quite good. Recipe by Rokky(sinsan) -

Brad's homemade Cajun bacon Brad's homemade Cajun bacon
This is a recipe I used a lot when I was raising and butchering pigs. It is an alternative to the usual bacon cure. And quite tasty. This recipe is a little advanced and takes some time. As well as some specialized equipment. But in the end. I have had nothing but praise for the final product. This recipe is for 12-13 lbs of meat. It is important to keep the ratio of meat/brine the same for larger or smaller batches.

Perfect Bacon! Can be cooked while naked! :-) Perfect Bacon! Can be cooked while naked! :-)
Because ovens vary, I always suggest checking after 20mins or so, adding 3-5 additional mins at a time. also people have different preferences in how they like their bacon. I love the oven method, as it eliminates all the splattering, and flipping, as well as having to watch it.
