Tallow
Tallow is solid fat extracted from the tissues and fatty deposits of animals, especially the fat of cattle and sheep. Pure tallow is white, odourless and tasteless; it contains mostly triglycerides of stearic, palmitic, and oleic acids. It is usually obtained commercially by heating suet under pressure in closed vessels. Tallow is used to make soap, candles and as a lubricant.
Tallow has a low melting point so this should be borne in mind in hot weather or when transporting.
