What is PLB Pork Lard?

PLB Pork Lard is pure rendered pork fat for everyday Indian cooking — a traditional cooking medium with the same monounsaturated-fat profile as olive oil (40% monounsaturated, 50% saturated, 10% polyunsaturated).

Single ingredient. No chemicals, no preservatives, no seed oils.

Slow-rendered in Guwahati, Assam, the way it's been made for generations. Smoke point ~190°C — ideal for high-heat Indian cooking: parathas, deep frying, tadkas, baking, roasting. Best for: flakier parathas, crispier pakoras, richer tadkas, and pie crusts that hold their shape. Use anywhere you'd reach for ghee, butter, or refined oil — expect better results.

Shelf-stable for up to 12 months at room temperature; 18+ months refrigerated.

Available in 400 gm and 700 gm packs. Pan-India shipping, free above ₹700.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is PLB Pork Lard suitable for Indian cooking?

    Yes — pork lard is one of the best cooking fats for Indian kitchens. It handles high-heat tadka, deep-frying, and slow simmering without breaking down, and its mild flavour lets your spices shine. We use it for tempering dals, frying pakoras, and rolling out flaky parathas. PLB Pork Lard is made from cleanly-rendered pork fat with no additives, so it works in any traditional Indian preparation.

  • What does pork lard taste like?

    Pork lard is mild, almost neutral. Good lard shouldn't taste "porky" — when rendered properly, it carries a subtle savoury richness rather than a strong meat flavour. PLB Pork Lard is slow-rendered and filtered to keep that neutral profile, which is why it pairs well with vegetables, breads, and even sweet preparations like pie crusts.

  • How is PLB Pork Lard made?

    We source pork backfat from carefully selected farms, slow-render it over low heat for several hours, then filter it to remove any solids. No bleaching, no hydrogenation, no preservatives. The result is a clean, off-white cooking fat that solidifies at room temperature and melts smoothly when heated.

  • How long does PLB Pork Lard last after opening?

    Once opened, PLB Pork Lard stays fresh for up to 6 months at room temperature in a sealed jar, or up to 12 months refrigerated. Use a clean dry spoon each time to avoid introducing moisture. Unopened, it lasts up to a year stored in a cool dark place.

  • Is pork lard healthier than refined cooking oils?

    Pork lard has a balanced fat profile — about 40% monounsaturated (the kind in olive oil), 50% saturated, and 10% polyunsaturated. It contains zero trans fats and naturally has Vitamin D. Many refined vegetable oils are high in inflammatory omega-6 fats and undergo heavy processing with solvents and high heat. For high-heat Indian cooking, traditional fats like lard, ghee, or coconut oil generally outperform refined seed oils.

  • What can I cook with PLB Pork Lard?

    Almost anything — tadka for dals, frying pakoras and samosas, rolling parathas, searing meats, sautéing vegetables, even baking flaky pie crusts and biscuits. Lard's high smoke point (around 188°C / 370°F) makes it a workhorse for both Indian and Western kitchens.

  • Does PLB Pork Lard need refrigeration?

    Not strictly required. PLB Pork Lard is shelf-stable in a cool dry pantry for up to 3 months after opening. If your kitchen runs warm or you want to extend freshness, refrigerate it — it'll just need to come to room temperature to scoop easily.

Unlike many seed oils that are high in polyunsaturated fats, pork lard contains predominantly monounsaturated fats, which are good for heart health. These fats can help reduce bad cholesterol levels and increase good cholesterol, promoting overall cardiovascular health.

The Culinary Benefits of Pork Lard

One of the reasons pork lard is considered the best pork lard in India is its versatility in the kitchen. It has a high smoke point, making it ideal for frying and sautéing. This means you can cook at higher temperatures without the fat breaking down and producing harmful compounds. Additionally, pork lard's neutral flavor allows it to enhance the taste of your dishes without overpowering them, making it perfect for both savory and sweet recipes.

In traditional Indian cooking, pig fat has been used for centuries to add depth and richness to various dishes. Whether you are preparing a flavorful curry, roasting vegetables, or making a classic pie crust, pork lard is the secret ingredient that can elevate your culinary creations. Its ability to produce a crispy, golden crust and its role in tenderizing meat are just a few of the reasons why professional chefs and home cooks alike prefer pork lard over other fats.

Health Benefits of Pork Lard

Beyond its culinary applications, pork lard offers significant health benefits. It is a rich source of vitamin D, which is essential for bone health and immune function. Unlike many other fats, pork lard is also low in omega-6 fatty acids, which can cause inflammation when consumed in excess. This makes it a more balanced fat option, especially when compared to many vegetable oils that are high in omega-6.

Incorporating pork lard into your diet can also support weight management. The monounsaturated fats in pork lard help to keep you feeling full and satisfied, reducing the likelihood of overeating. Additionally, these fats are easily burned for energy, making them an efficient fuel source for your body.
