Wusthof Larding Needles - 20cm

Larding needles are used to add lard to meat before cooking it, so that the meat will be more moist and tender.

This is especially helpful with big joints of meats such as venison, which tend to dry out during roasting.

These larding needles from Wusthof in Solingen, Germany, each have a sharp, pointed tip and a hollow body. The technique is to take a long, thin strip of lard and insert it into the hollow cavity of the needle, and then use the needle to thread the fat through the meat.

This is a professional culinary tool from Wusthof Dreizackwerk of Solingen, Germany, one of the world's leading manufacturers of quality cutlery.
