QUESTION

For preventing oxidized or metallic flavor, the butter oil must be stored in which type of container?

OPTIONS

(A) Aluminium/Stainless steel vessel
(B) Copper alloy vessels
(C) Copper vessels
(D) Iron vessels

ANSWER

(A) Aluminium/Stainless steel vessel

EXPLANATION

Aluminium or stainless-steel containers are preferred for butter oil because they are relatively non-reactive and do not readily catalyse oxidative flavour defects. Copper and iron can promote lipid oxidation and produce metallic or oxidized flavours. Hence, option (A) is correct.
