Lard can be stored for half a year at room temperature. If lard is placed in the refrigerator, it can be stored for one year.
Whether it is stored at room temperature or in a refrigerator, it is recommended to use it as soon as possible after the lard is made. Otherwise, as time goes by, the taste of lard will be greatly reduced. . If stored for too long, lard will turn yellow and easily become moldy and spoilage.
It should be noted that every time you use lard, you must seal it tightly and put it in the refrigerator to prevent the lard from contacting the air for a long time.
Storage method
1. Place the lard in a clean and sealable jar. Then let it sit at room temperature, seal it with a lid, and store it in a cool, dry place. Be careful to avoid direct sunlight.
2. Put the refined lard on the table. When your hands are not hot to the touch, add vitamin E, 1 pound of lard, about one vitamin E capsule, squeeze the vitamin E capsule, and mix the oily substance inside with the lard evenly. This will extend the storage time.
3. Add an appropriate amount of soybean oil to the cooled lard to ensure that the lard is completely covered and reduce contact with air, which can extend the storage time of the lard to a certain extent.
