Description

A wooden lard press, 550 × 120 millimetres. It is used for pressing cracklings after rendering — the mass goes between the arms and is squeezed, so the fat runs off and the cracklings come out dry and crisp.

How hard they are pressed decides what they are: lightly pressed cracklings stay soft, fully pressed ones keep for months.

Rendering is autumn work, done once a year in quantity. The press is washed in hot water the same day and dried completely before it is put away until the next season.
