Lacks product info from manufacturer
This is a lot cheaper than the American product 'Crisco', but only lists its ingredients as 'vegetable oils' which is no good to allergy sufferers, nor people who really want to know what they are eating.

Great for bread recipies
I use around 25g of Trex to 500g bread flour and get great results. Use as a subsitute for butter in all types of baking.

Recipes
Cheshire Cheese and Smoked Salmon Quiche
This lovely quiche has a little Cheshire cheese added to the pastry to give it a fantastic flavour, and is a tasty meal for the whole family.
1 hr 15 mins
British Brie and Roasted Vegetable Pie
A crumbly cheese pastry encases roasted vegetables in this easy-to-make free-from tart. Just be sure to check the label when purchasing the ingredients, to check that the brie you're buying is British!
1 hr 5 mins
Oat Cakes
Easy and quick to make with children helping or even making the oatcakes themselves. Supervise children when melting the lard and putting the baking tray in and out of the oven. Much tastier than bought oatcakes and they go wonderfully with Mackerel Pate.
30 mins
Chicken and Pork Pie
A meat-tastic combination of chicken, bacon and sausage gives this glorious pie plenty of richness and flavour.

superb
great for all types of baking, especially good for continental pastries and sweet breads, also foolproof for shortcrust pastry with very little effort. Would prefer if it came in a tub though, the laminated cardboard box it comes in rarely stays shut properly and the trex can dry out a bit
