- Lard
- Fat that fries the bologna, carrying heat for browning and adding rich flavor.
The step that matters
Fry the bologna in hot lard. Hot fat browns the surface through the Maillard reaction, giving flavor and crispness. If the lard is too cool, the slices absorb grease and turn pale and limp.
