Table IV.

Hardness (N) at −15 °C and percentage of drip after 150 min at 20 °C for ice cream made from control milk fat (C), milk fat enriched with unsaturated fatty acids (U), a low-melting milk fat fraction (L) and a high-melting milk fat fraction (H) for different levels of homogenization pressure and ageing temperature on fresh ice cream and after heat shock. Results are expressed as mean (± SD)1; P hom, homogenization pressure (MPa) and T ageing, ageing temperature (°C).
