A process for the selective hydrogenation of glyceride oils, which process comprises preparing a micrometallic cobalt catalyst by subjecting dicobalt octacarbonyl in a vegetable oil to hydrogen pressure at an elevated temperature of about 180°to about 230°C. to obtain as a catalyst micrometallic cobalt in a solid glyceride fat; selectively hydrogenating a vegetable oil under pressure and at an elevated temperature in the presence of the catalyst; and separating the cobalt from the hydrogenated product by magnetic attraction and recovering the separated micrometallic cobalt.
