Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for increasing the oxidative stability of short path evaporated oils, by adding to short-path evaporated treated oil at least one other oil. It further relates to a composition comprising short-path evaporated treated palm oil and, at least one other oil. Furthermore, it relates to the food products comprising these oils with improved oxidative stability.
Claims13
A process for oxidatively stabilizing an oil treated with short path evaporation (SPE), the process comprising:
- adding to SPE-treated oil 5 wt % or more of at least one other oil by weight of combined oils, forming an oxidatively stabilized oil, while the SPE-treated oil has a peroxide value of below or equal to 1.5 milli-equivalent peroxide/kg and peroxide value is measured according to the AOCS Method Cd 8b-90,
- wherein the SPE-treated oil comprises SPE-treated palm oil and the at least one other oil comprising a refined palm oil not treated with SPE,
- wherein the SPE-treated oil has been obtained from at least one of a SPE treatment prior to at least one refining or processing step, a SPE treatment after at least one refining or processing step, or combinations thereof, and
- wherein the process increases the oxidative stability of the oxidatively stabilized oil by 20% or more, relative to the SPE-treated palm oil, as measured by the Oil Stability Index (OSI).
