It's Time To Get Fat. Real Fat!

1 Gallon Organic Chicken Fat (Schmaltz)

1 Gallon Organic Chicken Fat (Schmaltz) is quite popular lately and is currently on backorder. You may still purchase now though today and we'll ship as soon as more become available.

This is the exact same Organic Chicken Fat found in our 7.5 oz jars but so much more of it.  You may notice that it is also a much more economical way to get schmaltzy.

If you don't know Chicken schmaltz you are about to enter a whole new world of delicious cooking. Nothing really compares to Chicken Fat a.k.a. "Schmaltz." It has the richness of duck fat but with a milder and more aromatic flavor. Schmaltz adds complexity to a variety of dishes that you simply cannot reproduce any other way. Schmaltz is easy to cook with and a "secret" way to add depth and complexity to leafy vegetables, stir-fries, pan-fried steaks, fish, poultry, soups, stews, and baked goods. For a special treat, spread some whipped schmaltz right on a piece of bread like you would a high-quality butter or fine olive oil. It's no exaggeration to say Schmaltz gives potatoes and other root vegetables a flavor that is beyond anything most of us have experienced. If potatoes could talk to schmaltz they would say, "You complete me!" Fatworks Chicken Schmaltz is made with 100% Organic Free-Range Chicken (which ain't easy to find!) and is rendered with the typical care and passion that you would expect from Fatworks. 

As a footnote, we are aware that a true "schmaltz" must be rendered chicken fat cooked in onions with salt (and preferably by your grandmother). Not everyone loves onions so our schmaltz is an unseasoned version.  If you wish to make the schmaltziest schmaltz that you could ever possibly schmaltz with, we recommend that you pour your Fatworks' Organic Free Range Chicken Fat in a pan, add some diced onions, salt, and sautée until the onions caramelize and then strain the fat back into a container and put in the fridge to solidify and, voilà, you will have obtained the ultimate in schmaltzdom.
