About Pea meal bacon
Peameal bacon is a type of Canadian bacon made from lean boneless pork loin that is wet-cured and rolled in cornmeal, giving it a distinctive yellow crust. Originating in Toronto in the early 20th century, it became a staple of Canadian cuisine and is often served as part of traditional breakfasts or on sandwiches. Compared to other bacon varieties, peameal bacon is lower in fat and calories, making it a leaner protein choice. It is a good source of essential nutrients like protein, potassium, and B vitamins, while its sodium content may be a concern for those watching their intake. Unlike smoked bacon, peameal bacon is usually sold uncooked and requires searing or grilling before consumption. Its mild flavor and tender texture make it a versatile ingredient, though portions should be enjoyed mindfully within a balanced diet.
