Utilization of ostrich oil in foods.

Abstract: Ostrich (Struthio camelus) was used as a new source of animal fats. Some physical and chemical
properties for the ostrich oil were compared with other fats (beef, bafflo, cattle, sheep and chicken),
fatty acid composition and unsaponifiable matter were determined. Ostrich oil was fractionated to liquid
and solid fractions and some characteristics of two fractions determined. Blending sunflower oil with
olein fraction showed oxidative stability, which was evaluated by the Rancimat method at 100°C was
obtained from ostrich oil by dry fractionatoin. The results indicated that blending sunflower oil with
olein fraction is an effective method to prepare more stable vegetable oils. Ostrich olein was mixed
separately with sunflower oil at (8:2, 7:3 and 5:5, v/v). The frying process was conducted at 180°C ± 5°C
for 20 hr, 5hr per day. Some physicochemical properties of non-fried and fried oil mixtures were
measured at various heating periods. The results demonstrate that mixing ostrich olein with sunflower
oil increased the stability and hence improved the quality of sunflower oil during frying process.
Ostrich stearin was used to replace fat in cake manufacture at ratios (0.00, 25.00, 50.00 and 75.00%).
Sensory evaluations of cakes were determined. Data revealed that replacements of fat with ostrich
stearin improved sensory characteristics of baked cake.
