The Great British Bacon Butty – Bacon Sandwich,The news is out – scientists at my old university, (Leeds University in West Yorkshire) have discovered the PERFECT way to make a “Bacon Butty”, that quintessential British sandwich, and they have devised a mathematical formula for it!! The bacon butty is one of my FAVOURITE sandwiches of all times…….especially when doused in HP Sauce or Worcestershire Sauce! Here is my method – it’s hardly a recipe, more of an idea and an assembly job! I have posted their mathematical formula at the end of the recipe – my formula is: Eat your bacon butty whilst its still hot and crispy!! Please increase the quantities as needed. I like to use smoked bacon, but any good quality dry cure bacon will be fine.,Butter is NOT optional! All the other options are definitely optional. Back bacon is essential because here in America store-bought packaged bacon is full of heaven knows what and there is more water than fat being rendered.,Sounds like a delicious ticking time bomb!

the Scientist's Formula: |
|
9
Done
|
Four Researchers at the Department of Food Science at Leeds University in the Uk Spent More Than 1,000 Hours Testing 700 Variations on the Traditional Bacon Sandwich. |
|
10
Done
|
They Tried Different Types and Cuts of Bacon, Cooking Techniques, Types of Oil and a Range of Cooking Times at Different Temperatures. |
|
11
Done
|
a Shortlist Was Then Tested With Computers to Measure the Texture of Each Sandwich. |
|
12
Done
|
Fifty Volunteers Also Judged Each Sandwich According to Its Taste, Texture and Flavour. |
|

|
the Formula Is: N = C + {fb (cm) . Fb (tc)} + Fb (ts) + Fc . Ta, Where N=force in Newtons Required to Break the Cooked Bacon, Fb=function of the Bacon Type, Fc=function of the Condiment/Filling Effect, Ts=serving Temperature, Tc=cooking Time, Ta=time or Duration of Application of Condiment/Filling, Cm=cooking Method, C=newtons Required to Break Uncooked Bacon. |
