Vegetable shortening
Has anyone seen vegetable shortening (Cookeen/Spry) on this side of the island? I need some rather urgently.

Re: Vegetable shortening
Fatouche, I've bought lard in Tempo in Catalkoy. Would that be of any use to you or is there a big difference?

Boys stop it.... get serious.
Try dehydrating them in the clay oven, they should shorten nicely.

I don't know how you take it in such a good spirit, Fatma. That Soner is such a wind-up merchant!
