Beef Tallow

Beef Tallow

Everyday

Beef tallow is a rendered form of beef fat characterized by its solid state at room temperature and high smoke point of 400°F (204°C). This traditional cooking fat is rich in saturated fatty acids and contains vitamin D and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), distinguishing it from plant-based oils. Tallow's stable molecular structure makes it excellent for high-heat cooking and deep frying, while its rich flavor enhances both savory dishes and traditional pastries.
