WTF Plant-Based Bacon: Slice It, Fry It, Love It
For plant-based bacon, we went on the hunt for perfect texture. Bacon is a special combo of crispy lean and chewy fat that are two very distinct mouthfeels that blend harmoniously when cooked. Our recipe had to spot on before we could release it. Scott and Janie walk through all the steps of the technique you need to create the best plant-based bacon that you’ve ever tasted… on this week’s WTF.

I am so excited to try this recipe. I would love to see Gluten Free Vegan Chicken. My daughter has searched high and low for it but they are all with gluten in them.

Can you make a plant- based ham that can be sliced as a deli meat?

Hi! Love your videos.
I’d love to see STRETCHY plant-based mozzarella cheese as your next plant-based WTF episode. And please enter me in the giveaway as well! Thank you!

Has anyone made plant based mollusks, such as clams, snails or squid?

In the “seafood” arena, I’d be interested in seeing plant based smoked salmon. The carrot versions I’ve tried just don’t quite hit the spot. Thanks for you efforts!

The one thing I would love to see (drum roll, please) is a white clam sauce for linguini. I might be game to try going vegan if I could get that. These videos are awesome – thanks!

I was wondering if you could cook the “bacon” in a stovetop smoker for additional flavor. So thankful for all of the recent recipes. Your cheese flavorings have really changed my vegan cheese creations.

Sure, anything to enhance the Smokey flavor would work, feel free to customize these recipes and show us your creations!
