To replace one cup of margarine one may use 1 cup shortening plus 1/2 teaspoon salt OR 1 cup butter OR 7/8 cup vegetable oil plus 1/2 teaspoon salt OR 7/8 cup lard plus 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Yes you can, as long as you melt the butter first.
Yes, you can, the taste will be a little different
yes of course, I think so...
Applesauce
Yes.
yes
measuring spoon
Yes, but trans fats and hydrogenated fats are really bad for you--watch out!!
You have to use some kind of oil. Olive oil is probably the best, although any kind of vegetable or fruit or nut oil will do. The oil combines with the yolk of the egg to form an emulsification. Without the oil, you can't get mayonnaise.
For most things. Let it cool and the finished product will be slightly heavier with shortening.
Melt the butter & measure the amount it needs. If it needs 2/3 cup oil, use that much melted butter.
baby oil or melted butter (:
Just use melted butter or milk.
You can safely substitute liquid oil for solid shortening in baking ONLY if the recipe calls for the shortening to be melted first. You can substitute butter or margarine for shortening ( 1 cup + 2 Tbsp for each cup of shortening). You can also substitute 1/2 cup applesauce or prune puree for each cup of shortening.
You can use butter instead, although you really won't get the same texture as you'd get using Crisco. Oil does not work in Irish Soda Bread. You could try searching for an Irish Soda Bread recipe that doesn't include Crisco.
Honey solidifies because when a person purchases honey in the store it is in its melted state. The honey will solidify after a time and no longer be in its melted state. Vegetable oil has the same properties, only vegetable oil will solidify if it gets too cold.
I personally substitute vegetable oil with canola oil. It is low in saturated fat and healthier for you. Some canola oils also contain omega 3, which many doctors recommend to their patients. *** Any other oil, corn, canola , olive , can be used as a substitute.( Even melted margarine or butter with limits) . Its mostly the flavor the fat brings to the dish or recipe that will be the difference. I'm over simplifying , but with out more info as to what you are preparing .. that's about it. Another good substitute for vegetable oil is apple sauce. It is healthier, but it does surprisingly taste very good and as it would with the oil. We didn't have any types of oil, and I found that apple sauce answer on yahoo answers. Cool! (: Enjoy...
