Density 19 · -3 vs Fats & oils medianRendered goose fat scores 19 of 100, a Low band placement that ranks 36th of 60 in the Fats & Oils category. As a nearly pure fat it offers little beyond energy, though it does carry 18% DV of vitamin E per serving.
Cooks prize it for roasting potatoes and searing meats, since its flavor and high smoke point suit traditional European roasting. A 100 g amount holds 27.7 g of saturated fat and 100 mg of cholesterol, both flagged as high, so it tends to be used a spoonful at a time rather than as an everyday cooking fat.
