Beef Fat

Beef fat, also known as tallow when rendered, is the natural fat trimmed from cattle. It has a rich flavor and a high smoke point, making it useful for roasting, frying, searing, and making savory pastries. Rendered beef fat is solid at room temperature and can be stored for later cooking when kept in a sealed container. In addition to culinary uses, tallow is sometimes used in soaps, candles, and skincare products. Because it is high in saturated fat, it is best enjoyed as part of a balanced diet.
