>>>Fascinating. "Schmalz" is the Yiddish word for chicken fat. (Of course, lard, which, in English, generally refers only to pork fat, is a non-starter for Jewish cooking.)

>>Schmalz derives from schmelzen - melting. The german term without closer description is pork, goose is commonly used. A goose (we eat that for christmas) will give around a pound that might be splitted between the guests (because I will never eat a pound through the year. A teaspoon on a red cabagge is fine. For what I know the freezer contains some two year old ...)

Goose or pork or mixed? With cracklings?
On fresh dark bread?
This could be very tasty. In my early days we made it home. An orgy of slicing bacon and onions. (The apples does not count) I like it sometimes, but one need to made a pound at least and I need a slice of bread only :(
Now all is those low-fat-blabla, it's hard to share ...
