Cooking with Lard
|
|
Damn - I think my arteries are hardening. I need to drink more beer to keep my blood pressure low. 
Here is a picture of an old college drunken masterpiece brought back to life. Its cooked with tad bit of lard since the sausage is too lean to lube the pan.
Sausage, potatoes, sliced onions seasoned with red pepper, black pepper and Lawry Seasoning Salt.
Browned the sausage, lowered the heat added onion, potato, and seasoning, covered for about 75 minutes on very low heat until the taters are soft.
Food close up
The beer.... Hoegaarten Clone (This is the appropriate pairing according to Garrett Oliver)

And now you've ruined it. 
I've never actually cooked with lard myself, but I ate plenty of it during summers in Poland as a kid. |

My mother is Polish and does pork chops this way.
Browns them first, in lard, then removes the chops, throws in the taters and onions, seasons mildly (w/o red pepper) then tosses the chops onto the taters to steam until they are super soft like the taters.
mmmmm good!!!
