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.

What is the meaning of cutting in cooking?

To "cut in" in cooking means to blend in, such as to cut in shortening into the flour when making pie crusts. You put the flour and shortening in a bowl, then 'cut it in' by using a pastry blender or two knives or a fork. This is done instead of fully blending or mixing, because you want the mixture to tiny little lumps of shortening instead of being a fully blended or mixed paste. To fully mix with a blender or mixer would result in a tough pastry dough, which is why you "cut it in" before adding the liquid.
