ABSTRACT:
A margarine or other emulsified spread and methods for making these are disclosed. A water-in-oil emulsion is formed by mixing an aqueous base with an oil phase containing a margarine fat which comprises a soft oil and a structural fat having a unique melting profile and triglyceride composition. The emulsion is chilled to a temperature of from about 15.degree. F. (-9.degree. C.) to about 45.degree. F. (7.degree. C.) over a time period of at least about 0.5 minutes. The chilled emulsion is then crystallized over a time period of at least about 3 minutes. Due to heat generated during crystallization, the crystallized emulsion is preferably chilled further to a temperature of from about 15.degree. F. (-9.degree. C.) to about 40.degree. F. (4.degree. C.) over a time period of at least about 0.2 minutes. For stick-type products, the combination of chilling the emulsion to cooler temperatures together with longer residence times for crystallization provides spreads having sufficient viscosity to form stick-type products with conventional margarine equipment. This emulsified spread is characterized by a slump grade of at least 8 after one hour at 80.degree. F. and a Hot Probe value of at least about 11.3 (.degree.F./6 sec.).
