1. A process for preparing a deodorized oil containing in-situ prepared mono-acylglycerides wherein the process consisting of the following steps:
a) hydrolyzing a triglyceride oil with water in the presence of a hydrolyzing enzyme and obtaining a hydrophobic phase wherein up to 50% w/w of free fatty acids are formed,
b) removing from 20% to 100% w/w of the formed free fatty acids and maintaining a glyceride containing oil fraction wherein the ratio of free and esterified hydroxyl groups (OH) to free and esterified fatty acids (FA) is greater than 1.07,
c) interesterifying the glyceride containing oil fraction of b), wherein the interesterifying is carried out in a composition consisting of the glyceride oil fraction of b) and an interesterifying enzyme, so as to yield a deodorized oil, and
d) collecting the deodorized oil from c) containing less than 1% w/w free fatty acids and containing from 1.5 to 25% w/w of mono-acylglycerides, 35 to 65% w/w of triacylglycerides, and 20 to 50% w/w of di-acylglycerides; and
e) optionally freeing the collected deodorized oil of d) from the enzyme of a) and/or c) by filtration and/or bleaching;
f) optionally deodorizing the collected deodorized oil of d) at a temperature of from 150° C. to 210° C.;
wherein:
the triglyceride oil is selected from the group consisting of tropical oils, palm oil, palm kernel oil, palm stearin, coconut oil, babassu oil, rapeseed oil, canola oil, sunflower oil, high oleic sunflower oil, soybean oil, corn oil, peanut oil, walnut oil, hazelnut oil, olive oil, camelina oil, linseed oil, hemp oil, safflower oil, cottonseed oil, high oleic cottonseed oil, low linolenic cottonseed oil, high oleic canola oil, low linolenic soybean oil, high stearic sunflower oil, and mixtures thereof.
