"Now we are going demonstrate how to render fat today we have chosen just to render the liquid fat actually off of bacon. So the term itself is rendering fat means to actually heat up the protein on them and turn the fat into a liquid form. So I'm using a low heat because we don't want to actually cook the bacon persay and I'm just going to dribble the fat off into this ceramic and as you can see the bacon itself if not done. And bacon of course is a good example to use for this cause it is fatty. So what we would do is keep cooking this long to the point of doneness and keep straining the fat off and once the fat is in it's clarified form this way and you can just run through a cheese cloth and that is rendering fat."
