Nothing imparts buttery, roasted richness like golden schmaltz, or chicken fat, and artisanal producer Fatworks, based in Colorado, sells this unseasoned small-batch version so it's especially versatile and can be flavored to your liking. We love using it to add savory, meaty flavor to morning eggs or extra nuance to any chicken recipe. Fatworks' careful sourcing—only from small family farms—and kettle-rendering processing method ensure a velvety, full-flavored product that can be treated like a high-quality butter or olive oil.
We test everything we sell. Here’s how we’d use this.
Use chicken fat for sauteing vegetables to flavor soups, stews and beans, or to fry potatoes or make fried rice. Its an ideal cooking medium for risotto or pilafs.
