Pure Grass Fed Lard - Food Grade - 4 lbs

Lard, a perfect combination of the three types of fats: monounsaturated, saturated, and polyunsaturated, can be found in various forms of fat, including butter, olive oils, and coconut oil. This US produced NON GMO Lard is a versatile ingredient that can be used for a variety of cooking and baking applications.

One of the key advantages of lard is its high smoke point of 370 degrees Fahrenheit, making it an excellent choice for frying vegetables or eggs, as it can withstand high heat without burning or smoking. This property also makes it ideal for frying pasture-raised chicken thighs, as well as creating delicious and flaky pie crusts, cookies, and biscuits.

The pigs from which this lard is sourced are raised under ideal conditions, in the open air and sunshine, which allows them to absorb high doses of vitamin D. As a result, this lard contains approximately 1000 IU (international units) of vitamin D per tablespoon, depending on the animals' diet and the amount of sunlight they receive.

The unique combination of fats in lard, including monounsaturated, saturated, and polyunsaturated, contributes to its exceptional performance in the kitchen. Whether you're sautéing, baking, or frying, lard can help create light, flaky, and delicious results, making it a versatile and valuable addition to any home cook's pantry.

In conclusion, this US produced NON GMO Lard is a superior choice for a wide range of culinary applications, from frying to baking, thanks to its optimal blend of fats, high smoke point, and exceptional nutritional profile, thanks to the ideal living conditions of the pigs from which it is sourced.
