It's good for making shortcrust pastry with. I normally use a 50:50 lard:butter ratio for optimal results. I also use lard to season my cast iron pans.

>Is it good for anything else?
Gee, OP. I don't fucking know. I also wonder just what lard could be suitable for.

Makes some killer fried eggs

>>13636583
Lard is pretty much a requirement for making refried beans and Nashville hot chicken.
Also roasted brussels sprouts. They just aren't as good in vegetable oil. Same is true with potato wedges.

All of Mexican cuisine

>tfw can't find lard anywhere

I won't eat kettle chips unless they're cooked in lard. Fuck that vegetable oil.

>>13636583
its worthless unless you get it from a butcher or farm. lard and animal fats used to be great because the animals ate a better diet.

>>13636583
>Is it good for anything else?

it's a good first step to getting people to call you "lard ass."

on the lighter side, just buy some and fry some shit in it (eggs?) and see if there's a difference
now there is something I just might do because it's cheap

>>13636711
lol

>>13637796

You are made of it, are you good for anything else besides shit posting?

What is the difference between lard and butter?

>>13638805
Lard can handle higher temperatures.

>>13636682
Highly overrated for the price. Duck fat is prized because it's so neutral and has a high smoke point, and there are cheaper alternatives that fit the same bill today.

>>13636583
get good quality bacon, fry it with that lard, apply on bread.

>>13638805
it's rendered animal fat from flesh

vs a result of processing milk

>>13638868
and what is the difference between those two?

>>13637750
i can only find the unrefrigerated hydrogenated armour stuff

>>13638877
if you mean health differences i'm not sure. lard is supposed to make flakier pastries and butter is vegetarian while lard isn't though.

>>13638982
butter isn't vegetarian it literally comes from animals

>>13639003
But it doesn't involve killing any animals or eating their meat. I thought only vegans cared about dairy. Vegetarians can still eat eggs and butter.

>>13636711
OP officially dumber than a jpg

>>13639158
why the fuck even bother at that point? what's wrong with eating the animals? vegetarians just want to throw them out after they're done getting the milk out of them?

>>13636583
Fry some tofu in it. Its fire.

>>13639003
You are confusing Vegans for Vegetarians.

>>13639231
vegetarians are completely retarded as well. most vegetarians eat meat and just call themselves that

>>13636583
well, basically every hungarian dish starts with lard, onions, and paprika, so you're basically a 1/3rd of the way there already

>>13636583
Its good for snacking. Just sprinkle some salt on it, and wa la.

>>13639312
based and heart healthy

Biscuits, Pie Crusts, fried chicken

>>13636583
Lard is good

>>13636583
Very good

>>13639267
i've only seen this with "vegetarians" eating fish and saying it's different from meat so they're still vegetarian. it's stupid.
