The present invention provides an oil-in-water type emulsion for light-exposing food having photodegradation-resistance, which has good taste and flavor with less deterioration such as off-taste and off-flavor even when irradiating light from a fluorescent lamp, etc. The first embodiment thereof is an oil-in-water type emulsion for light-exposing food containing fat and nonfat milk solids, wherein the fat is non-milk fat, or non-milk fat and milk fat, and the non-milk fat has such a constituent fatty acid composition that the total amount of lauric acid and palmitic acid is not less than 40%, the total amount of oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid is not more than 50% and the total amount of linoleic acid and linolenic acid is not more than 5%; and the ratio of milk fat/total fat is not more than 0.95. The second embodiment thereof is a nonfat milk solid-containing oil-in-water type emulsion for light-exposing food, which is the same as the emulsion of the first embodiment and the fat is non-milk fat having the above constituent fatty acid composition.

The objects of the present invention are to provide a whippable oil in water type emulsion, which possesses good heat resistance, excellent melting properties in mouth, freshness and cold feeling, and to provide a fat composition suitable for preparing the emulsion. A fat composition, comprising 25-60% of glycerides, of which constituent fatty acid residue has not more than 38 total carbon atoms, 25-50% of glycerides, of which constituent fatty acid residue has 42-46 total carbon atoms, and 5-25% of glycerides, of which constituent fatty acid residue has not less than 48 total carbon atoms was prepared by mixing laurin fats or hydrogenated products thereof which contain fatty acid residues with 16-24 carbon atoms or esters thereof, or a fat being rich in glycerides with fatty acid residues containing 16-24 carbon atoms, transesterifying them by a known method in the presence of a lipase having 1,3-specificity, and, if necessary, extremely hydrogenating them. Then, the fat composition obtained is used to prepare the whipping oil in water emulsion.

There is disclosed a freezing-resistant oil-and-fat feedstock which is obtained by selective rearrangement with middle-chain saturated fatty acid residues at the 1st and 3rd positions of triglycerides and has a melting point of -18.degree. C. or lower as measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The oil-and-fat feedstock is composed of mixed fatty acid triglycerides (U.sub.2 M and UM.sub.2) at an mount of 10% by weight or more, based on the total weight of the feedstock, the fatty acid triglycerides consisting of unsaturated fatty acid residues (U) and middle-chain saturated fatty acid residues (M) and the ratio of U.sub.2 M to UM.sub.2 being 1/3 or higher. Also disclosed are methods for producing the freezing-resistant oil-and-fat feedstock and various kinds of frozen food utilizing the freezing-resistant oil-and-fat feedstock.

A method for refining and fractionation of palm oil is disclosed. In this method, palm oil or palm fractionated oil which has been treated by physical refining is treated with an adsorbent, followed by subjecting it to dry fractionation. An apparatus for refining and fractionation of palm oil comprising means for treating palm oil or palm fractionated oil with an adsorbent and dry fractionation means connected thereto is also disclosed.

Shortening for a hard butter product which comprises crystallized fat composed of as a main ingredient 1,3-saturated-2-unsaturated triglyceride the total carbon atoms of the constituent fatty acid residues of which are not less than 50, and main crystals thereof being of their stable type. There is also disclosed aspect of the present invention is a process for producing a hard butter product which comprises adding the above shortening to a molten mixture of hard butter ingredients during cooling and solidifying of the mixture without melting crystals of the shortening.
