Lard
Incredible, rendered Mangalitsa/Red Wattle leaf lard. Mangalitsas especially are known for their succulent, abundant, melt-in-your-mouth fat. Our lard is perfect as a cooking fat for those morning greens and eggs, or in pies and pastries for that old-school, perfect flakiness. Our pigs spend 100% of their time on pasture, rooting in the earth as a crucial aspect our yearly garden rotations, and eating up organically-raised veggie scraps from our CSA and market harvests. They're also offered a soy-free, transitional-organic grain ration that most days we mix into a porridge with our goat whey and milk from our beautiful dairy goats, and are kept well stocked in mud puddles during the summer's heat.
Lard has about half as much saturated fat as butter, and is a phenomenal, high-heat, long-shelf-life cooking fat.
