About Fully hydrogenated vegetable fat

Fully hydrogenated vegetable fat is a fat made by hydrogenating vegetable oil until its fatty acids are largely saturated. It is a processed fat ingredient rather than a single plant or a naturally occurring whole food; its source oil and manufacturing details can vary.

It is generally firm or solid at room temperature and may be used in commercial food formulations for structure, stability, or texture. The exact melting behaviour and flavour depend on the starting oil and how the fat is formulated. It may be sold or used as a bulk fat, sometimes blended with other fats.

Representative benchmark from a comparable official food-composition category; it is not a laboratory measurement of this exact ingredient. The displayed reference form must be considered, and species, cultivar, recipe, brand, processing and preparation can change values.

Comparisons depend on the source oil and on whether the product is pure fully hydrogenated fat or a blend with other fats. Measure the ingredient in the form actually used, rather than assuming it matches the unhydrogenated oil.
