Lard is a traditional animal fat rendered from pork fat tissue. It has a neutral to slightly savoury flavour and a high smoke point. In cooking, it's often used for frying, braising, or as a baking fat to create exceptionally tender and flaky pastries.
Lard is used as a baking fat in the available recipes, such as "Cookies". It is frequently combined with eggs, sugar, baking powder, plain flour, and water, indicating its use in sweet baked goods where it contributes to a specific texture.
