Crisco All-Vegetable Shortening, 48-Ounce

I'm a professional pie baker and the only shortening I use for my crusts is Crisco. I am not a "brand snob" and happily use store brands for most every product. Crisco is one of the very few exceptions. My pies have won many awards. Of prime importance is a flaky, tasty crust. Quickly doing the mental math, I've rolled out 140,000 crusts using Crisco over the past decade and a half. That's a lot of Crisco and a lot of very happy customers!

Everyone in my family and I have always used Crisco Shortening. Over the years I have tried to use other cheaper store brands. None of them had the quality that Crisco has.

I had ran out of Crisco and ordered online and it was here in a few days. Great price too.

Like most things, the cost of Crisco All Vegetable Shortening keeps increasing. However, I don't use it very often. So it lasts quite a while. I have been putting off purchasing it, but this time of year, with the fall harvest, nothing compares if you want to make a light crispy homemade pie crust.

I don't use shortening for very many recipes but it is a must when I make my soft sugar cookies and frosting. Also I make wedding cakes occasionally and you can't get the perfect decorating frosting without it. I always keep a canister in my pantry for occasions that I will be making these yummy treats. The only problem with the shortening I've noticed is it doesn't have a long shelf life. It tends to go rancid if it sits too long so you can't stock up for future use.

Normally I use Peanut Oil to achieve the crispiest egg/spring rolls and fried chicken. However, I was tired of the high cost, and decided to try Crisco. Smashing hit! I just ordered this large size as it is much more economical, and all my cooking endeavors are turning out even lighter and crispier! SOLD!

MAKES TENDER BISCUITS!

Crisco is one of the better vegetable shortenings.....

I love using Crisco. It's so versatile. It's the absolute best for frying southern fried chicken, as well as being perfect to season your cast iron skillets. You can't go wrong with Crisco.

I love this product but I never received it
