Make a small hole in the center of each round.Melt shortening in a deep fryer or large saucepan.

Drain on paper towels.Fry them in lard instead of shortening if desired.We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.Info | Taco Braided Breadprep:
