🐖🥓 or 🍶🧈: A choice between lard and shortening, two commonly used fats in cooking. Lard, derived from pig fat (🐖🥓), is known for its rich flavor and ability to add tenderness and moisture to baked goods and savory dishes. On the other hand, shortening (🍶🧈) is a solid fat made from vegetable oils that have been hydrogenated, resulting in a creamy texture and high melting point. It is often used in baking to create flaky pastries and can withstand higher temperatures than lard. Both options offer unique characteristics and can be utilized based on personal preference and recipe requirements.
