Bacon and Accompaniments

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the Daily’s bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Make the Blue Cheese Mousse

    In a bowl, whisk together blue cheese and heavy cream until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Apple & Date Jam

    Chop the honey crisp apple and pitted dates. In a small saucepan, combine apple and dates with a splash of water and cook over low heat until softened. Mash together to form a jam consistency.

  4. 4

    Make the Sweet Onion Gastrique

    In the same skillet used for bacon, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped sweet onion and sauté until translucent. Add honey and balsamic vinegar, and cook until the mixture thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    On a serving platter, layer the crispy bacon, dollops of blue cheese mousse, spoonfuls of apple and date jam, and drizzle with sweet onion gastrique.
