Rendering Crunchy Pork Lard

How to Render Pork Lard?

Ingredients:

Few strips of semi frozen lard (easy to cut)
One tablespoon of oil

Method:

Just add one tablespoon of cooking oil to expedite the cooking process.

Cut the lard into small pieces and place in a sauce pot over medium heat.

After 10 minutes a large portion of the lard will be melted.

The crackling begin to form and watch it for the sputters.

If you prefer a slightly more brownish just cook it a bit longer.

At this point the crackling will be floating and technically done.

Use a metal sieve and strain through into a metal container and leave the crackling in the sieve.

When cool, store these cracklings in a glass bottle.
