I want lard for making crispy cookies, but I am not even sure where to get decent lard.

I bought some pretty good leaf lard in a jar from a place near me called Pure Pastures. I don't remember the brand...this isn't really helpful.
ReplyDeleteThe brand is Fatworks. Fatworksfoods.com
ReplyDeletethx!
ReplyDeleteIsn’t the whole point of lard that it tastes like pork? Otherwise you’d be using butter?
ReplyDeleteNot in baking, no. I mean, you will still get a slightly different flavor than butter or fake fat (aka Crisco), but its purpose in baking is to be as neutral in flavor as possible while adding the marvels of cooking with a saturated fat (flakiness, crispiness, etc.).
