Looking For A Good Schmalz Recipe!

(Sophie) #1

I made it once a few years ago and it must have been pretty good, because when I asked hubba-hubba about it, he lit up like a christmas tree. I just can’t find the recipe I used! :roll_eyes:

It seems to me that it would be totally keto-fiable by omitting the apple. Just use a lesser amount of onion and either chicken or pork fat & skin. I did make mine with pork because I wanted the cracklings in there.

Anyone have a fav recipe? TIA

Doesn’t get much more simple than this one:

Also Michael Ruhlman has a great book on cooking with schmaltz The Book of Schmaltz:Love Song to a Forgotten Fat
In case you run out of idea about what to do with it.

Oh goody, goody! Thank you. I was going to talk to the guys at Sam’s tomorrow and see what they’d sell me fat-wise.
