Product description
Swaledale's grass-fed cattle produce excellent beef* fat that is naturally high in omega-3 thanks to the diverse range of grasses on which our heritage cattle feed. Dry-aged in our Himalayan salt chamber, Swaledale beef fat has a distinctive flavour making it a great addition to the home cooks larder.
"Use a very sharp knife to thinly slice the fat and then lay over leaner roasting joints like a topside or top rump, providing additional fat to baste the joint whilst roasting, maintaining succulence and adding flavour.
Alternatively chop up the fat and set over a low heat with a splash of water to slowly render and produce dripping (or tallow, depending on where you’re from). Pass through a sieve and into a sterile container and it will keep in the fridge for weeks. A perfect fat for roasting vegetables; be it your roasties, or maybe carrots with thyme and garlic, or celeriac. If you use it to fill your fryer you can look forward to the ultimate chips, crisp golden and distinctly
For a slight twist, salt the fat and then cold smoke. If you manage this, then a smoked beef fat hollandaise sounds fairly awesome!"
*All Swaledale beef is heritage breed and raised on independent farms and smallholdings dotted around the wildly beautiful Yorkshire Dales. Slow grown and free to roam on the swath of green hills and valleys; the result is exceptional tasting beef with an umami taste - rich, dense and flavourful. Swaledale Whole Beef Fat is Always Fresh Never Frozen®, butchered to order, vacuum packed, and shipped in recyclable packaging to arrive safely insulated and ready to enjoy.
