We explored the use of the rice bran spread in two applications
for which alternatives to partially hydrogenated are needed: deep
frying and baked goods [6]. We first examined the rice bran oil
spread as a frying oil additive. One of the four formulations discussed
above was chosen and added directly to refined soybean oil
at concentrations ranging from 0.25–2% by weight. Tortilla chips
were fried in these oils and subsequently evaluated by a sensory
panel. Second, we investigated the rice bran oil-derived ingredient
for its utility in bread and granola.
