Abstract

AbstractThe objective of this study was to improve the content of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and obtain the blended oils used for different cooking methods (steaming, boiling, and stir‐frying) by blending 0%–15% DHA algal oil into soybean oil. It was shown that the addition of DHA algal oil increased saturated fatty acid (SFA) (1.57%) but decreased monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) (0.76%) and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) (0.68%). Various cooking methods significantly changed the fatty acid (FA) compositions. Steaming is a more effective way to prevent DHA loss and the production of trans‐fatty acid than boiling and stir‐frying. Besides, a positive result from free fatty acid (FFA) and peroxide value also demonstrated that steaming was a better way to protect oils. Overall, the soybean oil blended with 3% DHA algal oil with better oxidative stability and could be recommended for daily application by steaming.
