Abstract

A partially dehydrated food product, especially sliced bacon, that results in improved cooked yield and reduced shrinkage is prepared by subjecting the product to hydration with a curing solution and then to vacuum dehydration conditions to partially, but not totally, reduce the moisture content without substantially affecting the other food components.
