About Goat Tallow

Goat tallow is fat rendered from goat tissue, typically producing a solid or semi-solid cooking fat when cool. Its colour and firmness vary with the source fat and rendering, and it should be distinguished from unrendered goat fat and from fats of other animals.

It can be used as a cooking medium or flavouring. Rendered tallow has a rich, savoury flavour that may be noticeable in food. It may be stored as a solid or melted for use; products can differ in how thoroughly they are rendered and whether they are blended.
