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 substitute shortening with butter, margarine, or vegetable oil in your recipe.
Butter, margarine, or vegetable oil can be used as alternatives to shortening in your recipe.
When a cake recipe calls for shortening, you can substitute it with butter or margarine for a richer flavor, but the texture may be slightly different. Vegetable oil can also be used, but it will change the cake's consistency and moisture level. If you have Crisco (a brand of shortening), it's the best direct substitute. Overall, the choice depends on the desired flavor and texture of the cake.
It depends on the recipe. Shortening becomes solid at room temperature while vegetable oil does not. So vegetable oil may be substituted for melted shortening only in recipes that do not depend on shortening becoming solid for texture when cooled.
if a peanut butter recipe call for vegetable oil 1/3 cup and I only have 1/4 cup can I melt crisco shortening and add to the vegetable oil.
Yes, you can use vegetable oil instead of solid vegetable shortening, but it may alter the texture and outcome of your recipe. Shortening typically provides a flaky texture in baked goods, while oil can result in a denser product. To substitute, use about 75% of the amount of shortening called for in the recipe, and consider adjusting other liquids to maintain the desired consistency.
When substituting butter for vegetable oil in a recipe, use a 1:1 ratio. This means you can use the same amount of butter as the recipe calls for vegetable oil.
No. Lard is animal fat and shortening is vegetable oil that has been hydrogenated.
You can substitute butter for vegetable oil in a recipe by using a 1:1 ratio. For example, if the recipe calls for 1 cup of vegetable oil, you can use 1 cup of butter instead. Make sure to melt the butter before adding it to the recipe.
