Rendered Chicken Fat
- 1/2 cup raw chicken fat
- Pinch of kosher salt
- Place the chicken fat and salt in a small, heavy saucepan.
- Cook very slowly over low heat, stirring from time to time, until the fat is completely liquified and the cracklings are golden brown.
- Strain the fat into a jar or crock and refrigerate.
- Reserve the cracklings - crisp, fried bits that are left after fat is rendered - to use in making chopped liver or as a garnish for salads or mashed potatoes.
