Choosing the right oil will make food more delicious. Different families like to use different oils when cooking. Some families may like to use vegetable oil, but others like to use lard, which will be more fragrant and cheaper. There are some differences between lard and other edible oils in essence. You know, lard contains a lot of saturated fatty acids, and according to research, saturated fatty acids are closely related to cardiovascular diseases such as obesity and heart disease. If you eat lard regularly, it may lead to excessive fat intake, which may lead to some health risks. If you eat too much lard often, it may lead to abnormal fat metabolism, which may lead to cardiovascular diseases. Of course, the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases is not only caused by eating lard, but also directly related to other factors, so it is possible to eat lard frequently.

The benefits of eating lard properly

Eating lard properly is good for the human body. The energy contained in lard can help the human body replenish energy quickly, and lard will be more fragrant than other oils, and the fried dishes will be more delicious, which can promote appetite. In addition, some calories contained in lard are more suitable for people with weak constitution to relieve depression. For some women, if they have gynecological diseases, they can also eat some lard appropriately, which is helpful for anti-inflammatory and detoxification. And eating some lard often can also help lubricate the intestines, promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, and achieve the effect of smooth defecation.

Boiled lard

Lard is mainly boiled with pig fat. When adding pork suet, you can add water to the pot, then cook it with high fire until it is dry, then turn to low fire and cook it slowly until it is slightly bitter, so that all pork suet is boiled out, and turn off the fire after the oil residue turns yellow. Then put the boiled oil into a container and leave it at room temperature for several hours, and the lard will slowly solidify into milky white.

Finally, if you want to eat oil healthily, you should not only choose the oil that suits you, but also change some kinds of oil frequently, eat more vegetable oil and reduce the intake of animal oil containing too much saturated fatty acids.
