What is the use of a pastry blender?
A pastry blender is used to cut shortening into the flour mixture for flaky pastry. To get the flakiest pastry, it's important not to mix the shortening and the flour together but to layer them, that's what makes the flakes. To accomplish this, the shortening should be solid shortening and be ice cold while you work with it because if the shortening warms, it will soak into the flour before flakes can be formed. Some chefs place their bowl of flour and shortening into a bowl of ice to ensure that the shortening stays cold while they're combining the two.
