I want lard to make a comeback. It’s not actually bad for you,”
Here in Seattle one can buy lard over in the cooking supplies. It is great for frying and is shelf stable so good to keep in pantry for emergencies. Also Velveeta, of cours, also shelf stable.
I keep the four pound buckets of lard in the pantry, but I keep about a cup in the fridge for biscuits, piecrusts and other pastries that call for chilled lard.
