My sister in law sent me a link on how to render bacon fat and it is so easy my 3 year old nephew could do it! Well...
Lard is the most natural and healthy frying substance out there. When you use lard you are adding anti-oxidants to the finished product. When using an unsaturated fat (like canola or some other vegetable oil) the higher free-radical content will cause oxidation.
Simple explanation:
Anti-oxidants = good
Oxidation = bad
So, all you bacon lovers - just pour the fat through a paper towel, and refrigerate the finished product!
Cook, pour, repeat.
