About Canadian Tenderflake Pure Bakers Lard - 1 Pound 454 Grams
Overall Feedback:
72% positive
67% appreciated the high-quality ingredients, though 33% had concerns about sourcing
I was disappointed to find that the product contained BHT, which I had not expected based on the ingredients listed on Amazon.
The product contains additives like BHA, BHT, Citric Acid, which were not mentioned in the product description.
I have been dissatisfied with the quality of lards I purchased in the past. They were rancid when I opened them and had a sour-sweet smell. However, the lard I received recently smelled pure, clean, and only faintly porky, just like good lard should. I am amazed at its taste and it is why I make pastry (and biscuits) with lard. It is SO flaky, so unctuous, and with just a hint of savory flavor.
64% praised for its long shelf life, while 36% experienced spoilage
I noticed that the package had no date and looked old, suggesting it may not have a good shelf life.
67% appreciated its high smoking point
The lard tasted amazing. I never make time to write reviews, but I had to leave one for this lard.
67% liked its smooth and creamy texture, but 33% found it grainy
The texture of the lard is flaky, unctuous, and has a hint of savory flavor.
There is no porky smell at all.
My baked result was less tender and less flaky than shortening crusts.
