it is the rendered fat from a pig but in your recipe if you dont have lard you can use crisco or any other shortening...there wont be much of a change in the recipe...

in case you nevertheless believe that Jesus become not a physique manifestation of the very writer God, the be conscious that formed the worlds made flesh, then you definately are nevertheless sure in a loss of revelation that's the considerable denial of the NWT rewrite; and the JW concept gadget. For it quite is not and become not the religion of the Apostles nor the plan of the only dwelling God. God has laid aside all different names to set forth the Lord Jesus Christ; that at his call all issues in earth under and heaven above could desire to and could bow. For the 1st 3 hundred years, till fake doctrine defeated the genuine church; Christians have been baptized interior the call of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord being his call under the call of dad; Jesus being his call under the call of Son; and Christ or Messiah being his call under the call of the Holy Ghost. Then as now, Jesus lives in his toddlers; who're the believers and the genuine church in this ending hour.

It's cheap - about 1.40 CDN for a pound. It's solid shortening. Could use a brand like Crisco - solid vegetable shortening. Could also just use margarine - I'm assuming it's for the pastry. Lard would make it flakier than margarine, but would still turn out okay.

Pig Fat.
In Cuba it's called Manteca de Puerco
In Spain Manteca de Cerdo.

Lard is refined pig fat. You can substitute butter or a vegetable oil, but it won't taste as good.
Lard is made from the ground skin and fat of the pig.

Lard is pure unadulterated animal fat. Switch to Crisco.

like they said it's pig fat,and no it's not crisco or whatever else they said.crisco is a veg base. no animal fat what so ever.the reason you use lard is the flavor it gives, but it's not a healthy choice to cook with.

it is fat usually rendered from pigs....it has a meaty flavor to it....crisco is not really compatible, it is too 'clean'....if you are making any type of ethnic foods, use lard when asked, it will taste much more authentic....go to a hispanic foods store and ask for 'manteca'.....if they are latin, they will know what you mean....
