Turkey Fat

Turkey Fat

Believe it or not, turkey fat isn't as bad for you as butter is. It isn't as bad for you as most vegetable fats like canola or "vegetable oil" and is naturally low in saturated fats. If your turkey is pasture fed, it's also full of a lot of necessary vitamins and minerals. This means you can save that turkey fat and use it in any recipe that calls for lard or animal fat, and it can be used in place of butter.

One trick to make it easier is too take all your leftover skin, bones, gristle and assorted drippings and make stock from it. Once done, chill it thoroughly. The hardened fat will then be easily removed from the stock.
