What is a "rasher"?
A rasher is a thin slice of cured or smoked bacon, typically taken from the pork belly. It is characterized by its distinctively rich and savory flavor, with a balance of saltiness and smokiness. The texture of a rasher can vary depending on the cooking method but is often crispy on the outside, offering a satisfying crunch, while remaining tender and juicy on the inside. Whether enjoyed on its own as a breakfast staple or used as a flavorful ingredient in various dishes, rashers add a delightful burst of savory goodness to any meal.
