Abstract
Partially hydrogenated oil (PHO) possesses a mild flavor and exceptional processing characteristics, making it historically the primary choice for creamer. The discovery of health problems of trans fatty acids has accelerated the development of alternative fats. This study aimed to develop an optimal PHO alternative fat by physical blending. Based on the correlation between physicochemical properties and sensory attributes, soybean oil, fully hydrogenated palm kernel oil, and fully hydrogenated soybean oil (45/45/10, w/w/w) were selected to make the alternative fat. The fat blend exhibited a solid fat content (SFC) curve identical to PHO, along with similar melting crystallization behavior, crystal nucleation pattern and growth mode, viscosity (705 mPa s), and taste profile. Pearson correlation analysis was used to further clarify the correlation between properties and tastes. The result showed that the SFCs and fatty acid compositions have strong correlations with tastes. It provides a reference scheme for preparing fats with ideal tastes.
期刊介绍:
The journal publishes original research and review papers on any subject at the interface between food and engineering, particularly those of relevance to industry, including:
Engineering properties of foods, food physics and physical chemistry; processing, measurement, control, packaging, storage and distribution; engineering aspects of the design and production of novel foods and of food service and catering; design and operation of food processes, plant and equipment; economics of food engineering, including the economics of alternative processes.
Accounts of food engineering achievements are of particular value.
