About Hydrogenated corn oil

Hydrogenated corn oil is corn oil processed to make it more solid, with its final consistency depending on the degree of hydrogenation and any subsequent blending. It can be used as a fat in manufactured foods, baking, and other applications that call for a more structured fat.

The product is generally pale and may range from soft to firm at room temperature. Refined versions tend to have a mild flavour. It may appear as a semi-solid fat, flakes, or an ingredient in shortening; those forms are not necessarily compositionally identical.

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.

Measured nutrition can vary with hydrogenation level and with any blending or formulation. Compare like product forms, rather than assuming a shortening has the same composition as the oil alone.
