No, vegetable shortening as we know it today was not available in ancient Egypt. The concept of vegetable shortening, which is typically made from hydrogenated vegetable oils, was developed much later, in the 19th and 20th centuries. In ancient Egypt, people primarily used animal fats, such as lard, and oils from olives and sesame seeds for cooking and baking.
