[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've bought it at Wegmans. It's in the pork section. Call and ask beforehand. I'm not a fan of lard. Don't see a real reason for it. Just use crisco if you want crispiness in cookies.[/quote] Pie crust and Cuban bread are excellent “reasons”. [/quote] I make pie all the time and have made pie crust with lard. It makes the crust flaky yet crisp but it is also very, very rich. Heart attack rich. Much prefer an all butter crust or blend of butter and crisco. People cooked with lard because food was expensive and nothing was wasted. There is really no reason to cook with lard these days.[/quote] I think the PP should go back and compare the lard vs butter stats. None of this is terribly healthy for us but lard is not any worse butter. Some argue that it’s better. Use whatever you want in moderation and enjoy it.[/quote]
