Abstract (en)

A method is provided for fractionating a triglyceride oil into a stearin fraction and an olein fraction by admixing with the oil a second triglyceride oil containing tripalmitin, the admixture being such to provide a ratio of tripalmitin to stearin fraction of not less than 1 part by weight tripalmitin to 5 parts by weight stearin fraction, and lowering the temperature of the admixture from a temperature at which it is fully molten to a temperature at which the stearin fraction crystallises. The process is particularly suitable for groundnut oil. It can prevent the oil from becoming unpourable when kept at domestic refrigerator temperature.
