Suet, polish

Size: 500 g

Ingredients: Beef (organic & grass-fed).

Suitable for: Making cooking tallow.

Packaging: Vacuum-packed.

Converting raw suet into cooking tallow is easy: Trim away any meat residues, glands, etc. Dice the suet into cubes of about 1-2 cm. Place everything in a pot and set it on the lowest heat on the stove. The tallow is ready when most of the fat has melted into the pot, which usually takes 2-4 hours. Pour the warm, slightly cooled tallow through a permanent filter or cheesecloth into a glass or metal jar (a stainless steel strainer works if you don't have a filter or cheesecloth). Store in the refrigerator or at room temperature. In the refrigerator, the tallow lasts +6 months, and at room temperature, 1-2 months.

It's also excellent to make the tallow in the oven. Place it in a pot and set the oven to about 100–110°C. It takes a little longer in the oven; it's easy to let it go overnight and strain the finished tallow in the morning through a cheesecloth or a permanent filter.

The cooked tallow has a mild beefy flavor and is superb for roasting vegetables and potatoes in the oven, as well as for frying meat.

Our beef is organic, grass-fed beef from Western Sweden. We collaborate with around 40 cattle farmers, from Ekshärad in the north to Simlångsdalen in the south. We are proud to work with these farms, as they focus on both quality and care for animals and nature. All animals are raised on grass and herbs, which means they grow at a steady pace, allowing the meat to become marbled, flavourful, and tender. The meat is dry-aged for 7–14 days and hand-cut at our butchery in Uddevalla. On whole cuts (i.e., everything except mince), you will always find complete origin information: which farmer the animal comes from, as well as its sex, breed, and age.

Rekommenderad förvaringstemperatur för frysvaror är max -18°C. Tina gärna upp genom att lägga förpackningen i kylskåpet över natten eller i en skål med kallt vatten, förvara sen kylt i max +4°C. Efter upptining håller sig produkten ca 1 – 3 dagar i kylen. Vid leverans kan du förvänta dig en hållbarhet på minst 2 månader.

Produkter märkta med ett bäst-före-datum går ofta utmärkt att använda även om datumet har passerat, låt därför lukten och utseendet på produkten avgöra snarare än datumet. (OBS! Var noga på att skilja på bäst före och sista förbrukningdag!)

Om du har rendrerat (smält) talgen är hållbarheten istället +6 månader i kyl och i rumstemperatur 1–2 månader.
