Lard And Cracklings Recipes

LARD AND CRACKLINGS

Lard and Cracklings image

Provided by Pete Wells

Time 3h

Yield Makes about 1½ cups lard and 1 cup cracklings

Number Of Ingredients 2

Ingredients

1 pound pork fat, chilled leaf lard or fat back, preferably from humanely raised pork
Salt, cayenne, paprika, black pepper, five-spice powder or other spice mix for seasoning, optional

Steps:

Chop the fat into ¾-inch cubes and place in a small covered saucepan set over low heat. Add ½ cup water and bring to a simmer. Stir after 30 minutes. Continue to cook, letting it bubble, and stir from time to time. When the water boils off, render for about 2 hours. The lard will clarify, and the cracklings will shrivel and shrink. As it cooks, watch and listen: turn down the heat or take the pan off the heat if it smokes or if the lard starts to brown.
When the cracklings are lightly golden and have almost stopped bubbling, remove them and drain on paper towels or a brown paper bag. Strain the lard through a cheesecloth into a jar or bowl, where it will keep, covered, in the refrigerator for several weeks. Try a crackling. If it is not crunchy and appetizing, crisp the rest on a baking sheet in a 375-degree oven for 15-20 minutes. Season if you'd like, then cool on paper towels. Cracklings, well drained and lightly covered, will keep at room temperature for at least a week.

20 DELICIOUS WAYS TO USE PORK CRACKLINS LEFTOVER FROM …

Cracklin Biscuits. Cracklins can sometimes be used interchangeably with bacon. You’ll notice this recipe calls for cracklins or bacon. Why not use pork cracklins to make delicious homemade biscuits?
Bacon Bit Substitutes. Do you enjoy bacon bits on your salad? I try to eat a salad every day for lunch. Perhaps I’d be a little more excited if I knew I could add bacon bits to it.
Bread Crumbs. I use breadcrumbs for many things. They’re a great addition to a meatloaf. They’re also a great way to top off homemade macaroni and cheese.
Add Life to Green Bean Casserole. Green bean casserole is a traditional dish at Thanksgiving, but honestly, many people avoid it because it can get boring.
Milk Gravy Retake. We eat a ton of gravy around my house. I know, it isn’t the healthiest, but my husband was raised on it, and we keep the tradition with our kids.
Cornbread Anyone? I’ll be honest; I don’t like cornbread. Gasp! I know. My husband couldn’t fathom it at first either. It’s rather boring in my opinion.
It’s the Cherry on Top. Most of us like to add a cherry on top of our sundae. Don’t get concerned; I’m not going to suggest you add cracklins to your ice cream unless you’re extremely brave.
Brown Gravy. My husband grew up on milk gravy, but I grew up on brown gravy. I love it on my mashed potatoes or stuffing. Well, add a little something extra to your brown gravy by tossing in a handful of crispy pork cracklins at the end.
Chips and Dip. You probably already guessed, if I’m a gravy girl, I’m most likely a dip girl too. You would have assumed correctly. However, instead of purchasing a bunch of ingredients to make a dip, why not make it entirely from scratch.
Pork Cracklin and Veggies. It may seem odd to mix cooked pig fat with vegetables for a delectable meal, but would you imagine it works? The next time you’re in need of a snack, cut up crunchy vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
