This technique for microwaving bacon is fine but wastes a lot of paper towels. To do it properly use a rack with a trough to collect the fat but if you don't have one use just one paper towel under the bacon. To make a whole pound of bacon continue layering paper towels and bacon strips until the whole pound is used.Top with a paper towel and microwave slightly less than 1 minute per strip on high power. When the bacon is cool enough to handle, peel off the towels and use the amount you want and save the remainder in a self closing plastic bag until later. Just heat the bacon until hot and serve. This way you don't have to go through the mess of coking bacon from scratch every time.
