Production steps (full 5-minute process)
Lay an oil proof layer to avoid sticking. First, spread a kitchen tissue on the microwave tray, and then spread the bacon slices flat on the tissue (leaving a gap of 1-2 centimeters between the bacon, do not overlap, otherwise uneven heating will cause some to burn and some not fully cooked).
Key point: Bacon comes with its own oil, and tissues can absorb excess oil, making bacon fresher and avoiding oil droplets that are difficult to clean in the oven.
Cover and lock the water, control the taste. Cover the surface of the bacon with another kitchen towel (gently cover, do not press too tightly). This step can prevent the moisture of the bacon from quickly losing and becoming dry and hard when heated in the microwave, while also avoiding oil splashing onto the inner wall of the microwave.
Accurate timing, graded heating, put into the microwave oven, select the "high fire" mode:
Thin bacon (thickness<2mm): Heat for 1 minute, 30 seconds -2 minutes;
Thick bacon (thickness ≥ 2mm): Heat for 2 minutes -2 minutes and 30 seconds.
Tip: Do not heat directly for too long the first time. You can heat for 1 minute and 30 seconds first, then take it out and observe the state
Drip the oil to cool down and enhance the taste. After taking it out, use chopsticks to clip the bacon onto a new kitchen tissue (absorb any remaining oil on the surface), let it cool for 10 seconds before eating - at this time, the outer skin of the bacon will be more crispy, the inside will remain soft and tender, and the taste will be more balanced than when it was just taken out of the oven.

The key to avoiding burning: do not overlap! The overlapping parts of bacon will quickly burn due to heat concentration, while the edges may not be fully cooked, laying flat is the foundation.
Reducing oil is healthier: If you are afraid of getting greasy, you can first gently press the bacon with a kitchen towel to absorb the surface oil and then heat it up, or wrap the bacon with oil absorbing paper and gently press it to remove excess oil.
Taste upgrade tip: Sprinkle a little black pepper or chili powder on the surface of bacon before heating, or brush a thin layer of honey (note that honey will zoom when heated, reduce heating time by 10 seconds), for a richer flavor.
Recommended pairing: Heat bacon on toast, add a slice of lettuce and tomato, it's a simple sandwich; Or chop and mix with egg mixture, microwave for 1 minute to make bacon and egg custard, which provides more comprehensive nutrition for breakfast.
