Lard is the key ingredient for rediscovering the flavours of traditional cooking

Lard has been a staple of our cupboards for several centuries and it is one of the secret ingredients used by our grandmothers. This ultimate traditional and universal fat is derived from farm animals that are fed on an additive-free diet. Light and foamy, with a colour that is as white as snow, lard is only made from fresh pork fat from around the kidney regions. The use of bacon in lard manufacture is prohibited.
Nowadays, most celebrity chefs use lard in many recipes, and rightly so. Its unique flavour makes it the only choice when preparing dough and pastry, thanks to its suitable texture and high resistance to cooking.
Lard is also used in many French charcuterie specialities, such as Rillettes du Mans, and it is also used as an ingredient in sauerkraut. People from Brittany in France prefer to use lard for greasing their crepe hotplates, known as “biligs”. Many recipes can be cooked with lard and will adopt that very special hint that reminds us of local dishes: pork tamales; pompe aux grattons (pork scratchings in pastry); Flemish style rabbit; galettes aux griaudes, homemade rillettes, pork tenderloin confit, etc. … enough to whet your appetite!
