The performance or quality of the Virgin coconut oil (VCO) during continuous/prolonged deep fat frying of soaked bengal gram dhal was evaluated at 180 °C ± 5 °C for 8 h with the help of physico-chemical and rheological parameters. Chemical changes indicated that the free fatty acid (FFA) content and TBA increased significantly (p ≤ 0.05) from 0.11 to 0.98 % lauric acid and 0.06 to 0.61 malonald...

Used frying oil recovered from food manufacturing companies in Japan and recycled often shows lower carbonyl (COV) and peroxide values (POV) than oil simply heated at 180 degrees C for 20 h does. In this study the reasons for the low COV of oil used for deep-frying were investigated by employing model experiments and actual commercial frying. The results suggested that in actual frying, the fac...

Bulk Frying Oil (BFO) derived from semi-purified crude palm oil is widely used in Indonesia. Different from refined-bleached-deodorized palm olein that usually undergo full purification and fractionation, BFO is considered as lower quality because it still contains soft stearin fraction. Long shelf life and the reusability of frying oil could be improved by the addition of synthetic antioxidant...

The quality of edible oils is an emerging factor to decide the quality of fried foods. Elevated temperature favours lipid oxidation. The edible oil is repeatedly used for deep frying at 190C to 200C, the physico-chemical characteristics of the edible oil get deteriorated. A critical evaluation of the degree of lipid oxidation and deterioration in the quality of oil is informative to use fried f...

This study was conducted to investigate the condition of frying oil used for frying chicken nuggets in a deep fryer. The acidification of the frying oils used, soybean oil (SB), canola oil (CA), palm oil (PA), and lard (LA), were determined as peroxide value, acid value, and fatty acid composition, after chicken nuggets were fried in them for 101 times. The acid value and peroxide value obtaine...

Spinach is one of the highly consumed vegetable, with significant nutritional, and beneficial properties. This study revealed for the first time, the effects of high temperature frying on the carotenoids, chlorophylls, and tocopherol contents of spinach leaves. Spinach leaves were thermally processed in the sunflower oil for 15, 30, 45, and 60 min at 250°C. Reversed phase HPLC-DAD results revea...

The objective of this work was to dry sewage sludge using a fry-drying process. The frying experiments were carried out in commercial fryers modified by adding thermocouples to the setup. During frying, typical drying curves were obtained and it was verified that, in relation to the parameters: oil temperature, oil type and shape of the sample, the shape factor the most effect on the drying rat...

The main objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of the frying media and storage time on the fatty acid composition (FAC) and iodine value (IV) of deep-fat fried potato chips. The frying experiment was conducted at 180oC for five consecutive days. Six frying media were considered as the main treatments: refined, bleached, deodorized (RBD) palm olein (A), canola oil (C), RB...

The concentration of hydroxytyrosol (3,4-DHPEA) and its secoiridoid derivatives (3,4-DHPEA-EDA and 3,4-DHPEA-EA) in virgin olive oil decreased rapidly when the oil was repeatedly used for preparing french fries in deep-fat frying operations. At the end of the first frying process (10 min at 180 degrees C), the concentration of the dihydroxyphenol components was reduced to 50-60% of the original...
