Goose fat makes the best lard, but intestine fat is also suitable. It should be soaked in milk or water overnight. To make the lard firmer, add the same amount of pork fat. Cut everything into small pieces and fry over low heat. Once the fat is dark yellow, add the two finely chopped onions and a diced, previously peeled apple. Add the marjoram. Mash everything repeatedly with a wooden spoon until it is light yellow. Pour through a sieve into a stoneware pot and let it cool. The cracklings taste good with dry bread and strong cheese.
