The Scratch + Sniff Bacon Cookbook

This is a bacon cookbook with a super-fun twist—scratch the cover for a deliciously bacon-y smell!

It’s an indisputable fact that bacon is the world’s greatest food. It goes with everything—from savory to sweet—and it’s just as comfortable being the star of the show as it is playing a supporting role. You can slather it in maple syrup; you can fry it ‘til it’s crisp; you can use it to wrap other meats; hell, you can even weave a delicious bacon-y mat with it, and bacon confidently takes it all in stride. All hail bacon.

The Bacon Scratch & Sniff Cookbook promises to sway even the most hardened vegetarians with its forty bacon-centric recipes (not to mention its nifty scratch-and-sniff feature on the book’s cover)—from piggy snacks, including caramel bacon popcorn, candied bacon strips, and bacon-wrapped sweet potato wedges, to heartier main dishes like bacon-covered mac-and-cheese burgers, smoky bacon tacos, and the ultimate pasta carbonara. Did we mention dessert too? You’ll also find bacon and pecan ice cream, choc-bacon cookies, and everything bacon imaginable. It’s time to pig out, because everything is better with bacon!

Author Jack Campbell is an adventurous cook and food writer based in Melbourne, Australia. His first book, The Little Bacon Cookbook, managed to insert bacon into every conceivable dish. This new book adds to it even further by making the book itself smell like bacon!
