Lard and the Lactose Free Diet
Lard is a type of animal fat that is rendered from the fatty tissue of pigs. It is solid at room temperature but melts when heated. Lard has been traditionally used in cooking and baking due to its ability to create flaky, crispy textures in pastries and impart a rich flavor to dishes. It is composed mainly of monounsaturated and saturated fats and can be purchased in both its pure form or as a processed product with added preservatives.
