Heston Blumenthal's Candied Bacon?

[adey73]

Went to the Manchester festival and had Heston's Summer (there was no summer) treats (see here http://forums.egullet.org/index.php?showtopic=4891&st=698)

Does anyone know how to candy raw bacon in a way that makes it pasturised?

I presume a stock syrup & a dehydrator were used?

One of the Silver Palate cookbooks has a recipe for bacon that is dredged with mustard and brown sugar, then broiled. Really delicious, but it has to be watched VERY carefully as it broils. I think it's called "Bacon Bites."
