Yield Makes enough for about 6 double-crust pies or 12 single crust pies

Number Of Ingredients 1

3 pounds leaf lard, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place lard in a Dutch oven and bake until fat melts and the cracklings float to the surface, stirring every 45 minutes (this may take up to 4 hours). Remove from oven and strain into a heatproof glass measuring cup; discard solids. Pour rendered lard into small ice-cube trays about halfway full and freeze.
