Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide an oil and fat composition with unprecedentedly strong oxidative stability by using a simple method. The invention has been completed with the findings that an oil and fat composition shows an extremely strong oxidation stabilizing effect, the antioxidant oil and fat composition comprising an aqueous phase containing a water-soluble antioxidant and a carbohydrate and having a certain degree or more of water-soluble solids content, the aqueous phase being dispersed in an oil phase, wherein the antioxidant oil and fat composition contains a certain amount of water.
Claims25
An antioxidant oil and fat composition with a water content of 0.5 to 18 wt % comprising
- an aqueous phase containing a water-soluble antioxidant in an amount of 2.5 to 65 wt %, and further containing a carbohydrate in an amount such that the aqueous phase has a total water-soluble solids content of 18 to 79 wt %,
- wherein 1 to 38 wt % of the aqueous phase is dispersed in an oil phase.
