Introduction: Pork fat refers to the fatty portion of the pig, usually referring to the subcutaneous fat on the pig’s body. It has a high fat content and a rich flavor. Pork fat is often used in cooking to enhance the taste and aroma of dishes. It can also be used in the production of cured meats and hams. However, due to its high fat content, excessive consumption of pork fat may have adverse effects on health, such as increasing cholesterol levels and contributing to obesity. Therefore, it is important to consume pork fat in moderation. Fresh pork fat should have a firm texture without any water droplets or mucus. When pressed with fingers, it should quickly return to its original shape. If it feels dry or sticky when touched, it indicates that the meat is not fresh.
