Description

If you are vegan or vegetarian, this fake bacon recipe using rice paper, liquid smoke, salty miso, and sweet maple syrup is a must-try.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons maple syrup
1 1/2 teaspoons miso paste
1 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
1/2 teaspoon ground paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 sheets rice paper

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2 Whisk sesame oil, soy sauce, maple syrup, miso, liquid smoke, paprika, and black pepper together in a shallow bowl.
3 Stack 2 pieces of rice paper and soak them in a bowl of cold water until slightly soft and pliable, about 30 seconds. Cut the hydrated rice paper into strips using a pizza cutter. Dip each strip in the soy mixture and place on a sheet of parchment paper. Carefully lay the parchment paper directly on the oven rack.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until strips are dry, 6 to 8 minutes.
