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.
Yes, you should melt the crisco before adding it.
Yes, melted and cooled Crisco can be used in place of vegetable oil.
Yep, vegetable oil is always the best to use when you are baking.
Vegetable oil Olive oil Corn oil Crisco oil Wesson oil
Yes, you can melt shortening and use in a cake recipe. It will change the texture and possibly add heaviness to the cake, but it will still be good.
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.
Yes. Yes you can.
yes
that is stupid. No u can't ^^ actually YOU'RE stupid, yes you can.
In baking I use canola. If i'm frying I use vegetable oil (which is soybean oil) or peanut oil because I feel they are less likely to become oxidized. I also use extra virgin olive oil, but that does not get cooked.
For most cookies you can't use oil in place of shortening.
Yes you can but you need to melt it first to have the correct measurement. You can also use corn oil some people say it tastes alittle wierd in a cake but it doesnt to me.
You could but it's very greasy. Try a tube of Kolestral it's very good. Follow directions to apply it.
