Rendered Chicken Fat
Rendered Chicken Fat is rendered poultry fat traditionally used in Ashkenazi Jewish and Central/Eastern European cooking, often called schmaltz and prized for its rich flavor and for sautéing or roasting. It is very energy‑dense and primarily a cooking fat, delivering about 100g of fat per 100 g. While high in saturated fat and calories, it also contains a substantial share of monounsaturated fatty acids and provides some vitamin K, so it can add savory depth when used sparingly in place of butter or other animal fats.
