    Help with rendering lard

    You can cook the water off or you could dump everything in a big bowl and refrigerate overnight. The fat will separate and solidify at the top. Water will turn into jello at the bottom. What do you plan for the rendered fat. May i suggest potted pork?

    weight loss

    I don't think it has been quantified...since the weight loss is not the focus at the fermentation stage. Follow a verified recipe and don't worry about the weight loss.

    The Nitrate/Nitrite Cancer Scare Destroyed.

    One more thing: comparing "cancer risk from nitrite in meat" studies to Ancel Keys' 7 countries study is fallacy. Keys manipulated data so he's conclusion are crap. But the "nitrite in meat" studies demonstrated correlation (not causation).
