REFINED BLEACHED DEODORIZED (RBD) PALM OLEIN

Refined Bleached Deodorized (RBD) Palm Olein is a refined, liquid fraction of palm oil, obtained from the process of fractionation. It undergoes refining, bleaching, and deodorizing to remove impurities, color, and odor, making it a highly versatile cooking oil. RBD Palm Olein is widely used in food preparation, frying, and as an ingredient in processed foods.

 

Description

Key Features:

  1. High Smoke Point: RBD Palm Olein has a high smoke point, making it suitable for deep frying and high-temperature cooking without burning or degrading.
  2. Neutral Flavor: It has a mild flavor and odor, making it an ideal oil for cooking without affecting the taste of the food.
  3. Rich in Vitamin E: Contains Vitamin E (tocopherols and tocotrienols), which offers antioxidant properties and helps maintain skin health.
  4. Liquid Texture: Unlike solid palm oil, RBD Palm Olein remains liquid at room temperature, making it more versatile in food applications.

Applications:

  1. Cooking and Frying: RBD Palm Olein is widely used for frying, deep frying, and cooking due to its high smoke point and neutral flavor.
  2. Processed Foods: Used in the production of processed food items such as snack foods, baked goods, margarine, and instant noodles.
  3. Salad Dressings and Sauces: A common ingredient in salad dressings, mayonnaise, and sauces for its smooth texture and neutral flavor.
  4. Margarine and Shortening: An important ingredient in margarine and shortening due to its melting characteristics and cost-effectiveness.
  5. Industrial Applications: Used in non-food products like cosmetics, soaps, and candles due to its emollient and moisturizing properties.

Benefits:

  1. Heat Stability: RBD Palm Olein’s high smoke point ensures it can handle high-heat cooking methods without breaking down or producing harmful compounds.
  2. Versatile Cooking Oil: Its neutral flavor allows it to be used in a wide variety of dishes without altering the taste of the food.
  3. Long Shelf Life: The oil’s stability at room temperature and high resistance to oxidation allows it to last longer than many other vegetable oils.
  4. Rich in Antioxidants: The Vitamin E content provides antioxidant properties that help protect cells from oxidative damage and promote skin health.
