Description

Leaf lard is the highest grade of lard that comes from the area around the kidneys and loin of the pig.  It has a soft, spreadable consistency at room temperature and because it’s the most pure form of pork lard it’s best used for baking flaky, tender pie crusts, crispy cookies and muffins when you don’t want the finished product to have any pork taste at all.
