Research Summary
Shortening is a solid fat used in baking and cooking to tenderize, add moisture, and create flakiness in baked goods and other recipes. Typically made from vegetable oils, such as soybean, palm, or cottonseed oil, shortening undergoes a process called hydrogenation, where hydrogen atoms are added to the oil to convert it from a liquid to a solid state at room temperature. This process results in a fat that is solid at room temperature, making it ideal for use in pie crusts, biscuits, cookies, and other pastry recipes where a flaky texture is desired. Shortening has a high melting point, which helps to maintain the structure of baked goods and prevents them from becoming greasy or spreading too much during baking. It also has a neutral flavor, allowing other ingredients in the recipe to shine. While traditionally used in baking, shortening can also be used for frying and as a substitute for butter or lard in certain recipes.
