Abstract

Disclosed are compositions and methods relating to lecithin obtained from high-oleic soybeans. The high-oleic lecithin imparts improved characteristics to a product when compared to lecithin obtained from commodity soybeans. Examples of improved characteristics may include one or more of increased effective release, increased oxidative stability, increased OSI induction time, increased shelf life, increased smoke point, and a reduction in the increase in viscosity induced by oxidation or heat.
