Received December 4, 2008; Accepted June 2, 2009 In order to compare the thermal performances to evaluate suitability for frying, hazelnut oil (HNO), olive pomace oil (OPO), grapeseed oil (GSO) and sunflower oil (SSO) were heated for 5 h / 5 consecutive days at 175 ± 5 ℃, and sampled at the end of each day. Free acidity, peroxide value, conjugated dienes, total polar materials, viscosity, and CIE color values were measured. Highest values of free acidity, conju- gated dienes, total polar materials and viscosity were observed in grapeseed oil sample. GSO has reached to a very viscous state during the earlier hours of the operation; hence it is not suitable for frying. Better thermal performances have found with HNO and OPO when compared to the control oil, SSO. Therefore, both oils can alternatively be used as new frying oils effectively.

  • List of Legumes
    Healthy Oils & SmokePoints When it comes to the cooking oil in your cupboard, there is a huge difference in healthfulness depending on how the oil is stored and how it will be used. First let’s get some definitions for commonly used terms on labels and discussions about oils. Term Definition Cold Pressed Extracted without using heat. Extracted using a screw-type machine that presses the oil out. Can be done Expeller Pressed slowly, with very little heat, or can be done quickly with lots of friction and high temperatures. The first cold pressing which contains the best tasting and most healthful oils. Must contain less than 1% acids. By definition, this is cold-pressed and first Extra Virgin pressed, so don’t need to see these terms on the label. Must say 100% extra virgin, or may be a blend. The first cold pressing, but can contain a little more acids than the extra-virgin Virgin (1-3 percent). Seeds that have been genetically manipulated to decrease the amount of High Oleic essential fatty acids so that they have a longer shelf life. Are left in their state after pressing – no filtering. These oils tend to be more Unrefined Oils flavorful and richer in nutrients, however they have a very low smoke point. Oils have their impurities filtered out, to increase stability and allow for higher Refined temperature cooking. The processing can use toxic solvents, caustic soda, bleaches and phosphoric acid.

  • Medicinal Use of Sunflower Oil and Present Status of Sunflower in Pakistan: a Review Study
    Sci., Tech. and Dev., 31 (2): 99-106, 2012 Medicinal Use of Sunflower Oil and Present Status of Sunflower in Pakistan: A Review Study MUHAMMAD ARSHAD AND MUHAMMAD AMJAD Oilseeds Research Program, National Agricultural Research Centre, Islamabad, Pakistan. Abstract Sunflower {Helianthus annus (L.)} contributes 30% in domestic edible oil crop and has become the most important oil crop. A case study was planned to examine and review the current status of its production in Pakistan and sunflower oil use in medicine and nutrition. This study deals with the medicinal values of its oil with regards to its benefits and side effects. Sunflower seeds contain 20-30% protein as well as iron, B vitamins, vitamin A, calcium, nitrogen and phosphorus. The constituents of the seeds are a volatile oil, carbonate of potash, tannin and excellent sources of the B vitamins (B1, B3 and B6) including niacin and pantothenate. Sunflower oil is high in the essential vitamin E and low in saturated fat. Two common types of sunflower oil are linoleic and high oleic. Linoleic oil has high levels of polyunsaturated fat. It is also known for having a clean taste and low levels of trans fat. High oleic sunflower oils are classified as having monounsaturated levels of 80% and above. The iron-rich sunflower seeds are, by weight, 47% fat and 20-30 % protein. The seeds have more than 48 calories/tablespoon. Sunflower seeds have more iron than any other food except for liver and egg yolk. Sunflower seeds are more commonly eaten as a healthy snack than as part of a meal.

  • Effect of Sunlight on Quality and Stability of Dietary Oils and Fats
    Pak. J. Biochem. Mol. Biol. 2010; 43(3):123-125 Effect of sunlight on quality and stability of dietary oils and fats Muhammad Sohail1*, Taufiq Ahmed2, Saeed Akhtar3 and Yasser Durrani3 1Department of Food Science and Technology, NWFP Agricultural University, Peshawar, Pakistan 2Nuclear Institute for Food and Agricultural (NIFA), Tarnab, Peshawar, Pakistan 3Food Biochemistry Section, PCSIR Labs Complex, Peshawar, Pakistan Abstract: The present study was conducted to evaluate nine oil and fat samples i.e. animal fat (A.F), vanaspati ghee (V.G), sunflower oil (SFO), canola oil (Can.O), desi ghee (D.G), rapeseed oil (RPS), soybean oil (SBO), sea buckthorn seed oil (S.B.Seed) and sea buckthorn pulp oil (S.B.Pulp) for their quality and stability under sunlight condition. The quality of samples was determined in terms of peroxide value (POV), free fatty acid (FFA), beta-carotene content and colour (O.D) at the start of five weeks experiment followed by weekly analysis. The maximum POV increase was found for V.G (7040.48 %) and minimum increase was found for S.B.Seed oil (195.43 %). The maximum FFA increase was found in SFO (545.45 %) while the minimum increase was found in R.P.S (34.33%). The maximum decrease of beta-carotene was found in SFO (98.78 %) while the minimum decrease was found in desi ghee (62.91%). The maximum reduction in O.D was found for canola oil (84.91 %) whereas the minimum decrease was found in SFO (62.5%). Results indicated that light affected the dietary oils and fats very much therefore great care should be taken during their storage in order to avoid them from rancidity.

  • Hazelnut Butter and Coffee Meringues
    Hazelnut Butter and Coffee Meringues When you need a “WOW” total show stopper dessert, this is it. Light and airy Hazlenut Butter and coffee Meringues are as wonderful to eat as they are to look at. For a high-contrast swirl, go easy when folding in the nut butter. A stroke or two with the spatula is enough. Ingredients MAKES ABOUT 24 SERVINGS 1 cup Farm Fresh Nuts Raw Filberts/Hazelnuts ¼ teaspoon kosher salt 4 large egg whites Pinch of cream of tartar ½ cup granulated sugar ¾ cup powdered sugar 2 tablespoons coffee beans, chopped Preparation DO AHEAD: Step 1 Preheat oven to 350°. Toast hazelnuts on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing once, until golden brown, 10–12 minutes. Remove nuts and reduce oven temperature to 200°. Bundle nuts in a kitchen towel and rub vigorously to remove skins. Spread out and let cool. Step 2 Blend hazelnuts and salt in a food processor until a smooth, creamy nut butter forms (it should be pretty fluid; keep processing if still stiff); set aside. Step 3 Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until frothy, about 1 minute. With motor running, gradually add granulated sugar and beat until medium peaks form, about 5 minutes. Gradually add powdered sugar and continue to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form, 8–10 minutes. Step 4 Transfer meringue to a large bowl and gently fold in half of reserved hazelnut butter, leaving plenty of streaks. Add remaining hazelnut butter and fold once just to barely blend. Mixture should be marbled with thick ribbons of nut butter.

  • Vegetable Oils
    Vegetable oils Vegetable oils are obtained from plants. They are important ingredients in many foods, and can be hardened through a chemical process to make, for example, margarine. They can also be used as fuels, for example as biodiesel. Emulsifiers are food additives that prevent oil and water mixtures in food from separating. Vegetable oils are natural oils found in seeds, nuts and some fruit. These oils can be extracted. The plant material is crushed and pressed to squeeze the oil out. Olive oil is obtained this way. Sometimes the oil is more difficult to extract and has to be dissolved in a solvent. Once the oil is dissolved, the solvent is removed by distillation, and impurities such as water are also removed, to leave pure vegetable oil. Sunflower oil is obtained in this way. Structure of vegetable oils Molecules of vegetable oils consist of glycerol and fatty acids. In the diagram below you can see how three long chains of carbon atoms are attached to a glycerol molecule to make one molecule of vegetable oil. The structure of a vegetable oil molecule You do not need to know any details about the structure of vegetable oil molecules for the exam. Vegetable oils have higher boiling points than water. This means that foods can be cooked or fried at higher temperatures than they can be cooked or boiled in water. Food cooked in vegetable oils: cook faster than if they were boiled have different flavours than if they were boiled. However, vegetable oils are a source of energy in the diet.
