Oxidized partially hydrogenated oil

摘要

[Problem] To provide an oil composition having a hydrogenated aroma and flavor as in the past and having persistence of a hydrogenated aroma, while holding the trans fatty acid content to that of conventional salad oil, as well to provide the starting material thereof. [Solution] The oxidized partially hydrogenated oil of the invention has a C18:2 trans isomer content that is between 10 and 60 wt% of the total structural fatty acid content and a peroxide value that is between 8 and 350 mEq/kg. The weight ratio of the C18:2 trans isomer content to the C18:1 trans isomer content of the total structural fatty acids is preferably between 0.3 and 1.8.
