“does anyone know of a good kosher substitute for clams? Something that’ll get the flavor and texture close?”
Even if you sub the clams, the bacon thing is still going to be a problem. Where are you going to get the fat? I guess you could use pastrami, but don’t you still have a problem with using meat and dairy products together?
I’m going to try Morning Star vegetarian bacon and I’ll have to add fat. (I’m going to have to play with it)
