Food-grade white mineral oil is a common edible oil that is mainly used in cooking, food processing, and baking. It is a refined, decolorized, and deodorized grease with a lighter color and a yellowish or near-white appearance. Below we will introduce in detail the properties, characteristics and precautions for use of food-grade white mineral oil.
1. The properties of food-grade white mineral oil.
The main ingredient of food-grade white mineral oil is glycerides of saturated fatty acids, similar to animal fats. It has a low melting point, is generally liquid at room temperature, has a high smoke point and stability, so it is not easy to oxidize and deteriorate at high temperatures, and can maintain its quality for a long time. At the same time, food-grade white mineral oil has less viscosity than other edible oils and fats, which is easy to use and operate.
2. Characteristics of food-grade white mineral oil.
1.High stability: Food grade white mineral oil has high thermal stability and oxidation stability, can be used for a long time at high temperatures, and is not easy to deteriorate.
2.High smoke point: The smoke point refers to the temperature point at which the grease starts to smoke during the heating process. Food-grade white mineral oil has a high smoke point, generally above 200, which can adapt to the needs of high-temperature cooking.
3.Versatile: Food-grade white mineral oil is widely used in cooking, frying, baking and other food processing methods, and is also widely used in pastries, bread and other food production.
4.High safety: Food-grade white mineral oil has undergone strict inspection and quality control, and meets national food safety standards, so it can be used with confidence.
3. Precautions for use.
1.Storage: Food grade white mineral oil should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and humid environments. At the same time, make sure that the container is well sealed to prevent contamination and deterioration.
2.Dosage: Although food-grade white mineral oil has a high smoke point, overheating can still produce harmful substances. Therefore, it is necessary to control the oil temperature during use and avoid long-term high-temperature heating.
3.Pairing: Food-grade white mineral oil can be used in combination with other edible oils and fats to achieve nutritional balance and variety. However, care should be taken to avoid mixing with forbidden oils and fats, so as not to affect food safety.
4.Limitations on use: While food-grade white mineral oil is versatile, it is not suitable for all foods. During use, it is necessary to operate in strict accordance with product instructions and food safety standards to avoid misuse or abuse.
5.Health Considerations: While food-grade white mineral oil is relatively safe, excessive intake may still have health effects. Therefore, it is important to control the dosage and follow a healthy diet during use.
In conclusion, food-grade white mineral oil is a common edible oil with high stability, smoke point and wide range of uses. In the process of use, attention should be paid to the storage method, dosage, collocation, use restrictions and health considerations to ensure food safety and health.
