- Abstract
Virgin coconut oil (VCO) waste or blondo was a by-product, which still contains many important nutrients, and has a potency to be included for the production of nutritious food products. Blondo still contains a high moisture, and so to extend its shelf life and expand its application, it needs to be dried and changed in the powder form. This work was aimed to study the effect of heating time in the preparation of blondo powder on the physicochemical and fatty acid properties. VCO was prepared with a method of oil addition, and the blondo as a by-product was separated, dried with three different length of heat treatments (H1: 3 hours, H2: 6 hours, and H3: 12 hours with air oven drying), and grinded. The blondo powder was then evaluated for the content of protein, fat, and free fatty acid, emulsification capacity, and fatty acid characteristics. The results obtained indicated that a longer heating time resulted in a lower protein content, fat content, and emulsification capacity, but with a higher free fatty acid content. The fatty acid components contained in blondo powder which were characterized using GC-MS produced nine fatty acid components. They were lauric acid, myristic acid, heptadecanoic acid, linoleic acid, octanoic acid, decanoic acid, cis-11-eicosenoic acid, hexanoic acid and butyric acid; with the highest component was lauric acid (C13H26O2). The blondo powder produced with those treatments was most likely to be incorporated in a food formulation.
