EGG AND BACON SALAD

Provided by Nigella Lawson : Food Network

Time 32m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 eggs
1 head escarole or frisee or other bitter leaves of choice
1 teaspoon garlic oil
7 ounces (3/4 cup) smoked lardoons, or about 14 slices smoked bacon, cut into chunks
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
4 teaspoons cider vinegar
Dash Worcestershire sauce
Small bunch flat-leaf parsley, leaves chopped

Steps:

  • Put the eggs into a saucepan of water, over medium heat. Bring to boil, and cook for 1 minute, then turn off the heat and let the eggs sit in the pan for 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold water and let cool. Peel the eggs once they feel cool to the touch.
  • Cook's Note: I cook my eggs this way, as I love the yolks to be only just or rather almost hard-boiled, with the memory of oozy goldenness still evident at the centre; it also keeps the white amazingly silky. If, however you prefer a proper, good and bouncy reassuringly hard-boiled egg, cooked until the yolks are powdery and compact, keep the heat on under the pan for 10 minutes. The same applies, if you're making this for anyone with a compromised immune system, such as the old and frail, very young or pregnant women.
  • Meanwhile, tear the salad leaves into bite-sized pieces and drop them into a serving bowl.
  • Heat the garlic oil in a small frying pan, over medium heat and fry the lardons or bacon until crisp, about 5 minutes or so. Transfer the lardons or bacon with a slotted spatula to some paper towels to drain, while you make the dressing.
  • Add the Dijon mustard to the bacon juices in the pan and whisk to combine, then add the vinegar and a dash of Worcestershire sauce. Whisk again, then pour it over the salad leaves, tossing to mix.
  • Add the lardons and toss again, then quarter the eggs and add them along with the chopped parsley. Gently mix to combine, trying not to break up the eggs.
  • Make Ahead Note:
  • The hard-boiled eggs can be made up 4 days ahead. Cool, leave the shells and store in an air tight container in the refrigerator. Remove the shells just before serving.

Tips for Making the Best Bacon Salad with Bacon and Bacon:

  • Use high-quality bacon: The better the bacon, the better the salad will be. Look for bacon that is thick-cut and has a good amount of marbling.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy: This will help to render out the fat and give the bacon a delicious flavor.
  • Use a variety of lettuces: This will add color and texture to the salad.
  • Add some crunchy vegetables: Such as carrots, celery, or radishes. This will give the salad some extra crunch.
  • Use a flavorful dressing: A vinaigrette or ranch dressing is a good option.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: With different ingredients and flavors. You can add crumbled blue cheese, chopped nuts, or even fruit to the salad.

Conclusion:

Bacon salad with bacon and bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, and flavorful dressing, this salad is sure to be a hit.
