Cooking the Bacon
Place the bacon strips in a cold skillet, then turn the heat to medium‑low. Cook slowly for 8‑10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pieces are crisp and the rendered fat is golden. Transfer to a paper‑towel‑lined plate, reserving the bacon fat in the pan for later use. The rendered fat will add flavor to the eggs without the need for extra oil.
