Pork fat
Pork fat is an ingredient that comes from pigs. It is the fat found in pork meat, and it is commonly used in cooking and food production. Pork fat is solid at room temperature and can add flavour and texture to a variety of dishes.
To make pork fat, the fat from pigs is usually rendered, which means it is melted down to separate the liquid fat from the solid bits. This process helps to extract the pure fat that can be used in cooking. Pork fat can be found in its pure form or as an ingredient in various food products.
Pork fat is used in food products for various reasons, such as adding moisture, flavour, and texture. It can be found in foods like sausages, pies, pastries, and some ready meals. In baking, it helps create a flaky texture in pastries, while in savoury dishes, it adds richness and enhances the overall taste. When checking food labels, you may come across pork fat as an ingredient in a range of products.
