Research Summary

Margarine and shortening are both types of fats commonly used in cooking and baking as substitutes for butter. Margarine is typically made from plant-based oils that undergo hydrogenation to solidify them. It is designed to have a similar texture and taste to butter while typically having a lower saturated fat content. Margarine is often used as a spread for bread and as an ingredient in baking recipes. Shortening, on the other hand, is a solid fat made from hydrogenated vegetable oils or palm oil. It is often used in baking to create tender and flaky textures in pastries and baked goods. Shortening has a high melting point, which helps baked goods hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much during baking. Both margarine and shortening have different characteristics and can be used in various culinary applications, but it’s important to note that they differ in terms of their composition and specific uses in cooking and baking.
