A process for modifying a triacylglycerol stock, such as a vegetable oil stock, to better control fluidity is provided. The process includes interesterifying the triacylglycerol stock in the presence of a basic catalyst while monitoring the absorbance of the reaction mixture. A modified triacylglycerol stock produced by partial interesterification as well as plastic spreads and water-in-oil emulsions which include the partially interesterified triacylglycerol stock are also provided.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A method of quantitatively monitoring an interesterification reaction of a triacylglycerol stock comprising;forming an interesterification mixture including a triacylglycerol stock and a basic catalyst; anddetermining an absorbance of the interesterification mixture at one or more selected wavelengths within a range of greater than about 300 nm and within the uv spectrum.
