Butcher Boy Lard 50 lb.

Details

Whip up indulgent, old-fashioned culinary creations with this Butcher Boy lard. Lard consists of the fat of pigs that has been rendered and filtered to produce a cooking oil that is solid at room temperature. Though lard used to be the cooking oil of choice, it fell out of favor as "healthy eating" movements claimed that animal fats were fattening and unhealthy. However, recent evidence indicates that animal fats are higher in healthy monounsaturated fat and other beneficial compounds, and can actually be a more wholesome choice than hydrogenated vegetable fats and shortenings. Lard is also ideal for a wide variety of tasks, from frying and searing to using as an ingredient in baked goods, making it a versatile addition to your collection of cooking fats!

Create old-fashioned pie crusts, donuts, biscuits, and cakes with unbeatable flavor by substituting lard for vegetable shortening in your recipes. Its mild and clean flavor will add richness to your dishes without overpowering them with "porky" taste. This product has added antioxidants like BHA, propyl gallate, and citric acid to help improve its stability and protect the quality of its flavor, ensuring it will hold up in deep frying applications. This bulk 50 lb. supply of lard will keep your busy establishment in good supply of this remarkable ingredient! To preserve its quality and flavor, it's recommended to store this product between 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit.
