A method for making an emulsion. The stability of the emulsion can be protected by antioxidants such as tea polyphenols.

The present invention includes methods for producing and purifying esters of polyunsaturated fatty acids that include reacting a composition having triglycerides with polyunsaturated fatty acid residues in the presence of an alcohol and a base to produce an ester of a polyunsaturated fatty acid from the triglycerides. The composition can be a polyunsaturated fatty acid-containing composition that has not been conventionally processed. The reacted composition can be further processed by distillation.

The invention relates to edible nutritious oil which is characterized in that the contents of saturated fatty acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid are respectively 8 to 16 percent, 42 to 56 percent, 13 to 23 percent and 13 to 30 percent of total fatty acid. With the proposal of eating less saturated fatty acid and linoleic acid and more oleic acid and linolenic acid from the international alimentology community, the edible oil is designed based on the particular reference that the ratio of the linoleic acid to the linolenic acid is close to 1 to 1 in the meal of human beings and people in Crete, Greece 100 years ago. The edible oil which has more balanced ratio between the fatty acid is quite suitable for human beings and has very important effects on reducing human beings fatness, hypertension, high blood fat, cardiovascular and cranial vascular diseases and cancers and reinforcing intelligence development. In addition, the edible oil has high quality and low price.
