Lard, also known as meat oil and big oil, is made from the fat of pigs. It tastes fragrant and has a wide range of ways. So how to make the lard taste better and smell better? Remember these three tricks, boiled lard is white, fragrant and not fishy.

1. Prepare lard. Clean and cut into small pieces. Put the pot in cold water, cut a few slices of ginger and onion, and then pour in cooking wine. Boil the water for 1 to 2 minutes, skim off the floating foam, remove and rinse. This step can remove impurities and smell. If it is a small amount, it is not necessary to blanch it.

2. Take another pot, add pork fat, pour a bowl of clear water, sprinkle a little salt, and then cut a few slices of ginger and onion into the pot. Turn on a small fire and heat it slowly until it boils and turns to a big fire. Clear water is quickly evaporated by heat and takes away some fishy smell. Fat oil is slowly boiled, and lard is more and more.

3. When you see the ginger and onion turn brown, you can pick them out and throw them away. When you see that most of the fat oil has been boiled out, you can turn to a small fire to continue heating. When the lard residue in the pot turns golden yellow, you can turn off the fire. Add a little pepper and fry the fragrance with the remaining temperature. Finally, filter the lard while it is hot for precipitation and impurities.

Note:

1. Water is added to prevent the meat from zooming due to sudden heating. The lard boiled in this way is whiter and more fragrant after cooling. 2. After the color of the fat turns yellow, you must turn to the minimum fire and simmer slowly. 3. After the fat turns yellow, turn to a low fire to avoid the oil residue from zooming because of the fire, and the whole process does not need to be covered. 4. Turn off the fire after all the oil residue is fished out to prevent the oil residue from absorbing too much oil.

Lard is rich in protein, vitamins, amino acids and lipids. And its special fragrance is irreplaceable by any vegetable oil, especially fried vegetables, which taste more fragrant.
