Tallow
Tallow is rendered animal fat, most often made from beef fat, and it has long been used for frying, roasting, pan cooking, and traditional baking. It has a rich, savory character that can add a crisp texture and deep flavor to foods. Nutritionally, Tallow is almost entirely fat, with 100g per 100g. It contains mostly monounsaturated fat, along with smaller amounts of omega-3 fats and vitamin E. Because it is very high in saturated fat, Tallow is best used in moderation as an occasional cooking fat rather than an everyday staple.
