Using Lard at Home
During use, you can keep it in the refrigerator. If you don't use a lot of lard at a time, you can scoop smaller amounts into a smaller container to keep in the refrigerator, then keep the main jar in the freezer for when you need more.
Popular Uses & Recipes
Lard is popularly used in baking flaky pastries and pie crusts. It's the only thing Grandma Riemer will use - she swears by it!
The "smoky" flavor of the lard can come through in some recipes, but it is the perfect substitute for already flavorful baked goods like fudge brownies.
Of course, lard has also been used through the years in making handmade soaps to add lather and durability to the bars.
