Genius: this makes everything taste like bacon
I absolutely love a breakfast of eggs with bacon. I’m a big fan of bacon in general. A juicy hamburger with cheese and bacon (actually with an egg on top too), love it. The chicken salad at Loetje, which always comes with a kilo of bacon too: it never gets boring. The only downside is that bacon isn’t necessarily healthy. Buuut where there’s a will, there’s a way: these spices make everything taste like bacon. Without containing any bacon!
The Sweet Savory Spice Shop website discovered this brilliant life hack, and as the name kind of suggests, they also sell the magical stuff. What is it? Very simple: spices.
A pinch of this and your egg will immediately taste like bacon
The spices in question are called Smoked Spanish Sweet Paprika and yes; that indeed doesn’t sound like something that would have anything to do with bacon at all. But they tested it themselves and, wow… Their morning egg really tasted exactly like bacon. For fans of spicy food, they also have a spicy version, by the way.
Addicted to bacon?
After discovering an egg-with-bacon-but-without-bacon, they tested it a little further. And what did they find? It worked e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e! In the salad dressing: bacon. In the chili: BACON. How brilliant is that? And the very best part is that a pinch of these spices contains only six calories. So honestly, it’s a much healthier option if you’re truly addicted to bacon. Needless to say, I have to test this myself and have already added a jar of it to my virtual shopping cart.
