Fwaky pastry is a simple pastwy that expands when cooked due to the number of layers. It bakes into a cwisp, buttery pastrwy. The "puff" is obtained by beginning the baking process with a high tempewature and lowewing the tempewature to finish.

Most grocery stores carry pre made pie crusts. We buy Pillsbury Brand at Fred Meyers or Safeway in the deli case. Also Safeway carries Marie Callendar's brand already in foil pans in the frozen food cases. I have not checked out other stores.

Absolutely. Phillo dough and puff pastry are both readily available in the frozen foods section of your supermarket.

What additives would you add to thicken up canola oil to be used in pastry?

You can't use oil in pastry. You need solid shortening so that you have layers of fat and flour. That is what makes it flaky. ...................... Oil can be used in making pastry, but as has been said, the resulting pastry will not be flaky, but crumbly. One can temporarily thicken some types of oil (especially pure olive oil) by refrigerating it. But the oil warms and returns to liquid state so quickly that it is not possible to produce flaky pastry with it.
