}Explanation
Calculation basis: 8 US fluid ounces per cup divided by grams per US cup.
Shortening uses a recorded reference of 191 grams per US cup in this dataset. Confidence: medium. Source basis: typical kitchen chart (1 cup ≈ 191g)
Evidence status: reference-recorded. The source note is recorded; this does not certify every preparation or measurement condition. Temperature and physical state affect pourability and volume, so softened, melted, and solid forms should not be treated as interchangeable.

Questions & answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Does temperature or physical state change the result for Shortening?
Shortening keeps one liquid-state reference basis here, but the result assumes the ingredient is melted or fully liquid when measured. Solid pieces, scooped chunks, or semi-solid fills do not behave the same way in a cup.
