Comments on: Experiment: Shiitake Mushroom Bacon aka Vegan Bacon http://www.notquitenigella.com/2009/03/12/experiment-shiitake-mushroom-bacon-aka-vegan-bacon/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

I added a bit of real maple syrup and a drop of liquid smoke and that helped a lot! I am still going to tinker with it to get it just how I like. Great substitute!!! Thanks so much :) It was very savory! I added a bit of real maple syrup and a drop of liquid smoke and that helped a lot! I am still going to tinker with it to get it just how I like.

From another bacon lover. PS - great site. Just came across this shiitake bacon recipe and thought, maybe drizzling a little bacon fat on them before cooking might add to the flavor.

Let me know what you think of it if you try it! :) Hi Anita -you're welcome! Bacon is so good, I only wish it were healthier :lol: Hi Barbara-Yep, it helps a healthy salad stay healthy :lol: Oh wow, I didn't realise that it was different! Hi Tiffany-Ah cool, yes he might be interested in trying it, if just for a new way to have mushrooms! :) Hi The Duo Dishes -Hah so you haven't tried it? Hi Mike-yeah I don't think they're exactly like bacon but for a substitute it's pretty godd :) Hi Brianna-Excellent! That's exactly why I wanted to try it :) Hi Kathy-Thanks for the idea! You find the best stuff, you googling super hero! :D Hi Sara-Oooh great idea! I like it! :D Hi Margie -Yep! I guess anywhere you like bacon although I admit I ate it straight :lol: I love the waffle idea! Hi anna-Yes even if you don't think it's very bacony, noone will object to mushrooms on pizza (although it's a bit salty from the soy).
