Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- 2. Drill a hole into each well of the mini muffin pan (this is so the bacon grease will drain out). Set the muffin pan on top of the broiler pan to allow the bacon grease to drain into.
- 3. With fat edge down, start rolling the widest end of the bacon strip. Put the fatter side down into the mini muffin pan and press down gently, this will help to make them sit better and expand the botton better. Repeat this using both cuts of bacon to get different sizes of roses.
- 4. Bake for about 30 minutes, lift up each rose to drain bacon grease, return to oven for about 10 - 15 minutes longer. Be careful not to burn the bacon, keep an eye on it!
- 5. While the bacon is cooking: Take all of the roses off of the plastic stems, remove the green part of the roses and separate all the pieces(to use for the bacon roses). Using only the green plastic pieces of the rose, put them back on the individual stems sliding them down far enough to have about 1 inch of each stem sticking out of the top.
- 6. Put the marbles in the vase (the marbles are pretty and they are needed to weight the vase and help hold the stems in their places). Put the rose stems into the marbles in the vase.
- 7. When the bacon is cooked. Take pans out of the oven, remove the bacon roses from the mini muffin pan and put them on a paper towel lined baking rack to drain any bacon grease. Let cool completely.
- 8. Gently but firmly push each bacon rose onto the stems (using the best looking bacon roses). You should have a variety of sizes because of the different cuts of bacon and how they cook.
- 9. *** These roses will be greatly appreciated as a gift! *** They make a sensational centerpiece on your buffet table!
BACON ROSES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375. Place a cooling rack on top of a baking sheet. This will be the tray that holds the bacon and allows grease to drip. Roll bacon into rose buds and wrap aluminum foil around the bottom, leaving a small hole for the grease to escape, then place them on the cooling rack. Put roses in the oven for 30-40 minutes. While the bacon cooks, remove the heads of the fake roses, leaving the top of the stem and leaves intact. Insert toothpicks through the top of the stem, this will give the bacon some stability when you assemble the flowers. Remove bacon from oven once they're nice and crisp. Unwrap the aluminum foil and allow pieces to cool completely. Place bacon buds on flower stems and arrange in a vase.
Tips:
- Selecting the right bacon: Choose high-quality bacon slices that are not too thick or too thin. Thick slices are difficult to work with, and thin slices may not hold their shape well.
- Preparing the bacon: Before assembling the roses, partially cook the bacon slices in the oven or microwave until they are pliable but not crispy. This will make them easier to work with and prevent them from breaking.
- Rolling the roses: Start with the wide end of the bacon slice and roll it tightly towards the narrow end, forming a rose shape. Secure the rose with a toothpick or skewer to keep it in place.
- Baking the roses: Place the bacon roses in a baking dish and bake them at a moderate temperature until they are crispy and golden brown. The exact baking time will depend on the thickness of the bacon and the desired level of crispiness.
- Presentation: Once the bacon roses are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. You can serve them as an appetizer or a side dish, or use them to garnish other dishes.
Conclusion:
Bacon roses are a delicious and visually appealing dish that can be enjoyed on any occasion. They are relatively easy to make, and with a little practice, you can create beautiful and impressive bacon roses that will wow your guests. Whether you serve them as an appetizer, a side dish, or a garnish, bacon roses are sure to be a hit.
