Comparing the thermo-physical characteristics of lard and selected plant fats

Comparison of thermo-physical properties of lard and plant-fats may help to formulate alternative fat substitutes for halal food applications. In this study, plant-based fats, namely avocado butter (Persea americana), cocoa butter (Theobroma cacao L.), palm oil (Elaeis guinensis) and mee fat (Madhuc...
