Beef tallow is a rendered fat from suet, commonly used in cooking for its rich, savory flavor and high smoke point. It has a firm, waxy texture when solid at room temperature and a golden color. Tallow is prized for frying, sautéing, and roasting because it can withstand high heat without breaking down, making it ideal for crispy textures and deep flavors. It has a mildly beefy taste that can enhance the richness of dishes like fries, roasts, and gravies. Tallow is also valued for its traditional use in baking, where it contributes to a flaky, tender crust in pastries like pies and biscuits. It's a versatile fat that has seen a resurgence in recent years due to its perceived health benefits and nostalgic appeal in cooking.
