Novel approaches to oil structuring via the addition of high-pressure homogenized agri-food residues and water forming capillary bridges

The suspension of micronized agri-food residues, such as tomato peels and spent coffee grounds, at 25% vol in peanut oil, results in the formation of a sample-spanning network (capillary suspension) upon the addition of a secondary immiscible fluid, such as water (at 0.17–0.57 vol with respect to the oil), to preferentially wet the particle surface, thus forming capillary bridges. The strength of the capillary bridges, measured through the...
