Butters and oils may be go-to options for cooking your favorite dishes, but a variety of other choices can add extra flavor and nutrition. Duck fat, in particular, delivers a rich taste as well as an attractive golden hue that otherwise might be difficult to achieve.
A popular addition to fried or roasted potatoes, duck fat can also be used to up the ante for croquettes, pie crusts, and even popcorn. Many people prefer it for recipes that require a high cooking temperature.
