PCT No. PCT/NO90/00048 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 4, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 4, 1992 PCT Filed Mar. 12, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO91/13957 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 19, 1991.To enrich fat with polyunsaturated fatty acids and phospholipids a presscake is formed of iced fjord herring containing polyunsaturated fatty acids and phospholipids. The presscake is dissolved in a fat dissolving polar alcohol; the solids are separated; and the liquid evaporated until a precipitation of a first fat fraction occurs. The first fat fraction is separated; and evaporation resumed until the precipitation of a second fat fraction. The second fat fraction, with a higher content of polyunsaturated fatty acids and phospholipids than the first fat fraction, is separated from the remainder of the solution.
