You've got me, Dale. Just the way they make it, I guess. Jo (who is British) and I exchanged some recipes, which led to these couple of very startling (to me) questions:
She: what is shortening?
Me: what is caster sugar?
Interesting, trying to explain something when there is no (or little) common frame of reference. I would list my explanation of shortening as a deferred success.
I've heard of shortening bread from the song, of course. I just assumed it was American for shortbread. So what is it, then?
