Abstract
The present invention relates to esterified propoxylated monoglycerides (EPMG) and diglycerides (EPDG) and reduced calorie food products containing said compounds. Both EPMG and EPDG can be produced in a variety of forms including a liquid form, and can therefore be used for a variety of applications. These compounds are useful as partial or full substitutes for vegetable and other liquid oils, for purposes such as salad oils, cooking oils, anti-spattering or pan-release agents, or as ingredients in products such as mayonnaise, salad dressings, margarines, shortenings and peanut butter. Additionally, these compounds can withstand exposure to heat, and are therefore useful for baking, frying, sauteing and other related applications.
