are those that are visually distinctive such as butter, beef tallow, coconut oil etc
Visible fats

Fats and Oils Market Forms
Butter Margarine Lard Nuts Fats Peanut Butter Coconut Oil Rice Bran Oil Olive Oil
31
- Must contain 80% pure fat; - A good source of Vitamin A - came from the fatty substances from full cream milk, churned then pressed to squeeze out water.
Butter
32
- The rendered fat of the hog; - One of the oldest of house fat but remained as the least standardized
Lard
32
Have the same properties to butter and which contain any edible oils or fats other than milk; - It is the most acceptable alternate for butter as spread on for seasoning and making cakes and sauces
Margarine
33
Introduced to diet through rich fatty food; - Used as component part of prepared dish such as nut loaf, nut bread or fruit nut - Conserved as garnishes for salads and desserts and accompaniment to the meal
Nuts Fat
34
Most important source of lauric acid oil which is a product of the coconut milk; - Commonly used in a variety of vegetable dishes and desserts.
Coconut Oil
35
- The most popular in various nut butters; - Rich in fat, high in protein and a good source of thiamine and niacin as well as riboflavin and Vitamin A
Peanut Butter
36
Consists of the outer layer of the brown or de-husked rice grain - Contains 10-20% oil and 10-13% protein.
Rice Bran Oil
37
Comes from Olive fruits and has distinctive flavor that imparts to food
Olive Oil
38
are defined as mixtures of at least two immiscible liquids commonly oil and water.
Emulsion
39
Fat-based substitutes
Sucrose fatty acid polyeste Sucrose fatty acid esters
40
Fat replacers
fat based substitutes protein- based fat replacers carbohydrate-based fat replacers
41
is a general term for the flavor problems that develop in fat-containing foods
Rancidity
42
formation of fatty acids and soaps and is caused by either reaction of lipid and water
Hydrolytic rancidity
43
results from more complex lipid oxidation processes
Oxidative rancidity
44
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT USES OF FATS AND OIL?
1 . Add flavor and nutritive value; 2. Prevent particles of food from sticking to one another or the pan; 3. Serve as a cooking medium to fry foods; 4. Enhance flour mixture by imparting shortened quality to batters and doughs; 5. In cakes, it holds ai incorporated during the beating of the mixture; 6. Serve as chief ingredient in the preparation of foods which form emulsions.
45
the process of extracting fats and oils from animal tissue
Rendering
46
The process of adding hydrogen to unsaturated fats to convert them to solid fat
Hydrogenation
47
The removal of fatty acids in some crude oils and fats that caused undesirable quality with the addition of alkali to form a water and oil emulsion.
Refining
48
some vegetable oils are cooled to 7 degree Celsius and then filtered to remove crystals that has been formed at this reduced temperature. - The product, an oil, can remain clear even at refrigerated temperature because fatty acids with the highest melting points have been removed.
Winterizing
49
one double bond fatty acid
Monounsaturated Fatty Acid (MUFA)
50
two or more duble bond fatty acid
Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid (PUFA)
51
Monounsaturated Fatty Acid (MUFA) food sources
olive oil and avocado
52
carries the maximum hydrogen atoms and has no double bonds
Saturated Fatty Acids
53
PUFA food sources
Sunflower oil, Safflower oil, Canola and soybean oils. Flax seeds and walnuts
54
Saturated fatty acid food sources
Animal fats, coconut, palm, kernel, peabut oil and cocoa
55
A combination of a lipid and a phosphate group - are molecules with hydrophilic phosphate heads and hydrophobic lipid tails.
