About Back bacon rashers
Back Bacon Rashers are thin slices of cured pork typically taken from the loin of the pig, sometimes with a bit of belly attached for added flavor. Common in British and Irish cuisines, this leaner alternative to streaky bacon is prized for its meaty texture and moderate marbling, offering a satisfying balance between fat and protein. Traditionally smoked or unsmoked, back bacon is often pan-fried or grilled and served in breakfasts or sandwiches. While back bacon provides a rich source of protein, essential vitamins like B12, and minerals such as zinc, its high sodium content and saturated fat may require moderation in consumption for a balanced diet. To maximize its nutritional benefits, look for products with lower salt content and trim visible fat before cooking.
