Sourced from U.S. organic family farms. (No imported fat here), This is the most prized lard available. Organic means you can be guaranteed that this has been certified to have no GMO's pesticides, added hormones, or antibiotics. Rendered from the prized pasture-raised "leaf" (internal fat), making it less "porky" tasting than Fatworks' other lard offering, which comes from back fat primarily.
Both have their uses, but as there is no meat muscle in the leaf, it has a milder pork flavor and slightly higher saturated fat, making it the perfect lard when you need a delicate, light, and "clean" taste. Bakers have cherished Leaf Lard because it creates the best crusts and cakes, and cookies while not imparting any flavor of its own. The perfect fat for bakers and keto, and paleo fat connoisseurs, and the gourmet baker's secret weapon.
Ingredients: Organic Free Range Leaf Lard, Organic Rosemary Extract
