Hydrogenation, Beader & Flaker

Hydrogenation is another important way of processing oils and fats to enhance their value. The objective is to convert liquid oil into semi-solid or solid fat which can be use as a component of a spread. As a consequence of hydrogenation, there is a change in melting behavior because of the increased level of solid present. This affects spreadability, oral response and baking performance.
