homeshow said:When I wet render lard from 1 of our pigs. I get 1 of 2 results.
1. I put the scraps thru a meat grinder. I get the most from this batch but not as firm and pure white.
2. I put the scraps directly into the hot water. White firm lard every time.


Something about not shredding the fat?


Hmmm, I wonder if that caused the bit of haze that I could not clear from this last batch of tallow? I will try cutting into cubes next time.
