Can I substitute shortening for vegetable oil, if I melt it down?Shortening vs. Vegetable Oil?
It depends. If you're frying something, melted shortening will work. If you're baking a bread or cake, it will probably work if it is blended well in the batter or dough. If you're making a salad dressing on the other hand, you might find that as it cools to room temperature you will have lumps of congealed fat in your salad!Shortening vs. Vegetable Oil?
What are you going to use it for baking then that would be OK because I have done that in the pass when I had ran out of oil.
If your baking it is fine!! If you are frying something no...It will be to greasy!!!
