E tells me pig fat is hard to sell. People love bacon, not backfat. After taking up walkin space for a year a lot of it ends up, eventually, in the compost. Well, pig eaters, I'm here to report that you don't need leaf lard for sweet pastry. Even backfat lard, when tempered with butter, will do very well. My early experiments in 100% lard pastry were too much, but today's lard and butter turnover crust is pretty much perfect. If you don't believe me, go try an apple turnover for yourself.
