Directions
- Cut lard into cubes of about 15 × 15 mm, put in a suitable pot and pour about 50 ml of water.
- Keep the temperature around 110 to 120°C and stir occasionally.
- When the lard dissolves, add 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- After some time, lard stops bubbling, but do not increase the temperature. It is the most common mistake when rendering. Above 130°C fat begins to burn, it will lose the delicious taste and greaves will harden.
- When bubbling almost stops, let it cool so that the jars will not crack.
- Put greaves into a jar and carefully pour off the clear lard into the second jar. The greaves in the jar slightly squeeze into a glass and pour lard.
- Leave at room temperature to solidify, close it and store in a cool place.
- Lard in the fridge can easily absorb different odors, so always put a lid on.

- cut 600 g of lard into cubes of about 15 × 15 mm and pour about 50 ml of water... (remove all the pieces of meat!!!)
- keep the temperature around 110 to 120°C and stir occasionally...
- when the lard almost dissolves, add 1/2 teaspoon salt...
- after some time, lard stops bubbling. The most common mistake is to increse the temperature... DO NOT INCREASE THE TEMPERATURE!!!
- when bubbling almost stops, turn it offf and let it cool... (so that you can touch the pot)
- first pour clear fat into a 375 ml jar...
- into another jar put greaves, squeeze them slightly and pour over with fat...
- which jars do you thing will solidify quicker??? clear fat or the one with greaves???
- store it closed, as it can asily absorb different odors...
- the salt in the lard makes spreading easier even at low temperature - temperature of lard on the video is 4°C... slow rendering ensures soft greaves...
