re: Powdered everything
I read the same backpackers article you did and had the same
question. The recipe i remember was based on couscous and couscous
are usually prepared with a couple of tablespoons of olive oil. The
powdered shortening i believe was intended to be a substitute for
the olive oil. carrying powdered shortening is easier to pack than
olive oil. Also I could not find any source locally for powdered
shortening and was also wondering were it could purchased or if you
have to dehydrate your own. For short trips carry oil isn't hard.
my 2 cents
