Yes, this may sound weird but because of the chemical bonds and compounds this works. If you whip 3 egg whites in a bowl until it forms stiff peaks add 1 teaspoon lemon juice one cup of flour little olive oil, and 2 table spoons of salt it would be exactly the same as 1cup of shorting. yes u may think if wont work but when the ingredients combine with the cake, the salt acts as a polynomially, or a ingredients that changes other ingredients because of chemical bonds. it will not change the cooking time, taste, or color of the cake what so ever!
the pastry will just fall to bits in the oven.
Shortening makes the pie crust flaky. Butter makes it taste good. The best crust recipes use a combo of both.
It appears to be a pie containing pineapple and blueberries with a Crisco shortening crust.
Is the question about "vegetable shortening"? In apple pie filling, a small amount of butter (about 2 Tablespoons) NOT shortening, should be used to "dot" the top of the filling before the top crust is applied. For any pie crust, including crust for apple pie, butter or lard, or a combination of both, may be used instead of vegetable shortening. There are also recipes for crust made with vegetable oil, which produce a slightly different type of crust with a crumbly texture.
No, pie crust is one of the things that has to use a solid shortening.

The basic ingredients in pie crust are flour, fat (shortening, lard, butter or oil), salt and water.
Sweet potato pie is usually made with a regular single pie crust made with flour, lard / shortening, a bit of salt and cold water. The crust should not be pre-baked. Also, a graham-cracker pie crust is quite tasty with sweet potato pie.
cause they are tasty:)))))))
Flour used for pie dough is all-purpose flour. This flour type is versatile for making a pliable, dense dough that will keep firm.
According to one of the discussions on vegguide.org, Baker's Square pies, "...are never made with lard and the crust is made with shortening."
Not always! It just depends on the recipe, whether homemade or store-bought. Shortening used in the pie crust recipe helps to make tender flaky crusts whether homemade or not!
Normal faults thin and extend the earth's crust. Reverse faults cause crustal shortening and thickening.
A single pie crust is just the bottom crust on a finished pie. For instance, a French Silk or pumpkin pie is a single crust pie.A double crust is a pie that has a bottom, filling and then a top crust to cover the pie. A traditional apple or blueberry pie is a double crust. An apple pie with a crumble topping instead of that second crust on top is a single crust pie.
