You should also cook with lard and tallow. Bacon grease is the best to use for many things.
When I grew up, everyone saved the bacon grease in an old Crisco can on the stove. It was used when frying because Teflon hadn't been invented yet. But then it was declared bad for you and we got rid of it.
Now let's do Teflon: https://www.healthy-holistic-living.com/dangers-of-teflon/
I know grocery stores used to sell lard and tallow, not sure if they still do, I'll have to check it out.
I can probably render my own from trimmings. That will kind of suck for me as I love the charred fat on steak, pork chops, etc., hate to cut it off!
Looking forward to trying the bacon grease, it will add a nice depth of flavor to a lot of dishes.
I can get lard at my Fry's (Kroger) grocery store. It is on the very bottom shelf in the baking isle. I still cook my eggs in butter. I brown my butter on low heat, once the fats start to brown (you will get a wonderful aroma) I add in my diced onions, jalapenos and saute them. I then add my eggs and gently cook them.
I'll have to look in that aisle at my store.
Thank you for the tip on browning the butter, I haven't tried that, but it sounds delicious!
You are welcome! Brown butter is very delicious. Some people will brown a pound of butter then put it into molds, freeze and then keep them in the fridge as a nice treat instead of candy. It caramelizes the butter slowly on low heat. There are many videos on youtube of browning butter. Thank you for allowing me to talk about cooking. I love trying new recipes, techniques etc in the kitchen. My family, on the other hand, are not as excited about learning new things as I am! Have a wonderful day!
