1740. BACON and MARMALADE SANDWICH on PUMPERNICKEL TOAST

serves two


8 strips thick cut bacon
4 slices pumpernickel bread
butter
orange marmalade

Fry bacon in two batches or two large skillets, starting uncooked slices in a cold skillet and turning frequently until cooked through, but not until totally crisp. Drain on paper towels.

Toast bread. Butter one slice for each sandwich generously, then apply liberal amounts of marmalade to the buttered slices. 2 tablespoons for each sandwich. Arrange bacon on unbuttered slices of bread and top with buttered, marmalade-laden slices. Cut sandwiches in half and serve.
