Regenerative Pork Lard

Long before cooking oils lined grocery shelves, cooks reached for lard. This slow-rendered version from FOND honors that tradition, using pastured pork sourced from White Oak Pastures, a pioneer in regenerative farming. Rich, versatile, and remarkably clean in flavor, lard is rich in monounsaturated fats and omega-3 fatty acids. Its high smoke point makes it ideal for sautéing, frying, and baking.

Why we love it:

• Ideal for frying, roasting, and flaky pastry. Also a secret ingredient in homemade flour tortillas
• Edna Lewis has a whole section dedicated to hunting, butchering and processing pigs for pork and lard in The Taste of Country Cooking. This store-bought alternative makes it easy.
• Our co-founder Connie says, “If you’re new to using lard, put this one to work on Miss Lewis’ excellent yeast rolls, made with a potato sponge.”
