Studies with Deoiled Rice Polishings:(II) Acceptability of Some Food Preparations Utilising Rice Bran Oil

Abstract

The consumption of fats and oils in India is meagre when compared to other developing countries. Since fats and oils are relatively more expensive, efforts are being made by the Government of India to increase the production of edible oils from vegetable sources. Hence, the need for increased production of vegetable oils is crucial. India has a large variety of edible vegetable oils but in limited quantities. The modern rice milling industries in India are making available edible oil from rice bran.
