Hi Sandrine, Welcome to Diana's Desserts Website and to the Discussion Forum. If you are speaking about the apple pie "Snow White" made in the Disney animated movie, then you can substitute the vegetable shortening in the pie crust with butter, margarine, or a combination of butter and lard, or even vegetable suet. Please let us know how the pie turns out.
Sincerely, Diana Diana's Desserts

Hello! I'm new here to the forums and don't know if it's a little late to reply to this, but, within the past year, My family has changed our way of eating and has cut out the vegetable shortening, as it contains alot of trans fat and preservatives. I have replaced butter for the shortening in almost all of my recipes and so far, so good.It does seem as though it has a softer texture, and if your looking for firmness(like in icings) it is a bit of a challenge...I'm still looking for ideas for that.

I am hoping someone in Europe can help me with the reverse problem (sort of) from Sandrine. I live in the USA. I have a recipe for Lebkuchen from my mother that calls for shortening. At least that's how its written. However, I do not remember my mother ever having shortening in the house. Also, this is supposed to be an old family recipe, I do not believe that my grandmother used shortening back in the late 1800's in Germany. I would like to try making the original recipe, without shortening, but when I tried substituting butter, it did not come out. The recipe I have call for sugar, honey, shortening, egg, flour, soda, cinnamon, cloves, nuts, citron.

Hi Erica, Just looking at your recipe, to me it looks like you are missing baking powder. A lot of *old* recipes from Europe used butter or a vegetable based oil or a mixture of both (ie, melt half the butter and add oil into the mixture and let the entire mixture cool before using it)...a lot of old recipes were vague in instruction because most women simply jotted down the ingredients and remembered the rest....ingredients were just a guide and were often adapted to circumstances - for instance during the Great Wars many ingredients were just not available...My Grandmother ended up writing in some of her passed down recipes 'fat, flour, water or milk, or dilluted cream, sugar or mixture of sugar and strawberry jam" for this strawberry cake recipe that I have at home...its both heartwarming and so loveable to just see women back in time nurturing no matter what the circumstances...
Warmly, Ingrid
