The emerging preference for delicious yet healthy food has pushed for ingredients that are both made from natural ingredients, without sacrificing the flavour and taste of your meals. Crisco, a well-loved pantry staple, has been around since 2011, providing home cooks and bakers with an alternative for their baking and cooking needs.
First introduced in 1911 as a shortening made entirely of vegetable oil, Crisco has now expanded into a different products including cooking oils, cooking spray and of course, the well-loved shortening under the Smuckers line-up of quality food products.
Crisco Shortening has already built a solid reputation as a go-to ingredient for home bakers. Initially sold as an alternative to lard which was a staple ingredient for the housewives of yesteryears, Crisco has been marketed as a healthier alternative.
Used to give a crumbly and crisp texture to baked goodies, Crisco Shortening has been a regular and must-have ingredient for pies, pastries, sweet breads, biscuits and cakes, among others through the years. Shortening also works well for quick sautéing, frying and stir-frying, while also enhancing the flavour of the meal.
In the Philippines, Crisco shortening comes in two variants. All-Vegetable Shortening also known as the original is a blue-canned classic used as base if you feel like being a rock star in the kitchen. Another variant, Butter Flavor All-Vegetable Shortening is definitely the best choice for dishes meant to have a silky and buttery taste.
Both variants serve as the perfect base, whether for hot meals or salads or baked goodies – with Crisco, buyers are assured of the top-most quality and nutrition.
Crisco is distributed by Sysu International, Inc. and is available in all supermarkets and groceries nationwide.
