Hydrogenation is a chemical process that adds hydrogens to monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fats. Hydrogenation makes the structure of the fat more rigid – and shelf stable – at room temperature.
Special Note: Healing Gourmet strictly opposes hydrogenated, or trans fats. Read labels and always avoid anything containing hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils.
