1. What’s the difference between vegetable shortening and ghee?
Vegetable Ghee & Shortening is a plant-based fat ideal for baking and frying due to its neutral flavor and high smoke point. Ghee is clarified butter—rich, aromatic, and often used in traditional South Asian cooking. Both serve different purposes depending on cuisine and cooking method.
2. Why buy shortening or ghee in bulk?
Buying in bulk not only reduces your cost per unit but ensures you always have critical kitchen staples on hand—especially useful for high-volume kitchens and commercial bakeries.
3. Can I use shortening for frying?
Yes! Products like liquid frying shortening and creamy fry shortening are specially designed for deep frying. They offer extended fry life, excellent crispness, and minimal flavor transfer—perfect for commercial fryers.
Whether you're deep frying, baking, sautéing, or preparing traditional South Asian dishes, our wholesale shortening and ghee products ensure professional results every time.
