Uncured Apple Smoked Bacon

"Trader Joe’s Uncured Apple Smoked Bacon is made without added sodium nitrite or sodium nitrate, two ingredients commonly used in the curing of bacon. This means that our Uncured Apple Smoked Bacon is technically “uncured.” Rather than use chemical curing agents, ours is smoked over real applewood, giving it a distinctive, delicious, downright decadent flavor. However, our recipe includes sea salt and celery powder, which contain naturally occurring nitrites. This is thickly sliced bacon that’s appropriate with eggs for breakfast, with lettuce and tomatoes for a BLT, in wraps, on salads... You can cook it as you’d cook any bacon, though our current favorite cooking method involves cooking on a foil-lined baking sheet in a 400° oven for about 15 minutes – this nets the most delicious result. (We suggest you place it in a cold oven and let it cook while the oven heats; exact timing will vary, so stay close in the final few minutes to avoid burning.)"
