Yes, you can use butter in place of lard in a cookie recipe, but it may slightly alter the texture and flavor. Butter will make the cookies richer and can result in a softer texture, while lard typically produces a flakier cookie. Adjusting the amount of sugar or flour may help achieve the desired consistency if needed.

What is the measurement of butter vs melted lard in yeast bread?

The amount of butter or lard in any yeast bread is going to depend on the specific recipe being followed. Lard and butter can be exchanged in the same amount in most recipes. Melted lard is the equivalent of melted butter, although technically melted butter may include some percentage of water. But that difference is not likely to affect the outcome of the bread. The main difference between lard and butter is in the taste.

Butter.A further response:Since margarine was developed as an inexpensive substitute for butter, butter is also a good substitute for margarine.

Each type of fat will produce a slightly different baked product.

Lard is not needed to make yeast bread. You can make excellent bread with just yeast, flour, water, and salt for flavoring. If your recipe calls for shortening or butter, substitute the same amount of lard for each. (Except for brushing the tops of the dough; butter or egg wash still works best for that.)


When should one use lard instead of butter in a recipe?

While generally not as healthy as butter or vegetable shortening, lard is still the best for baking recipes where the desired result is a flaky texture due to the way the fats in lard react with the proteins in flour. The difference is especially noticeable in pie crusts and some pastries, as well as biscuit recipes.


How much butter do you use to replace melted lard in yeast bread?

The only difference would be the amount of salt you would use in the recipe. If the recipe calls for unsalted butter and you're using salted, just decrease the amount of salt used in the recipe by a very small amount. If it calls for salted butter and you're using unsalted, then you increase the amount of salt by a very small amount. By small amount, that would be about 10% of the amount called for in the recipe.
