Pieces of fatty bacon, a base for many stews and sauces
Lardons are simply small pieces of fatty bacon that has been cut up into cubes.
They are often fried to provide the base of a stew or sauce, as the fat they release when fried will give a strong flavour to the finished dish.
They can also be used fried until crispy, to add texture to salads and other dishes.
Restaurant-style dish with a real autumnal flavour
