The population is increasingly aware of the diet\u2013health relationship and they are opting for a healthy lifestyle. Concerns with the increasing number of heart-related diseases, which are associated to the consumption of fats, are placing the functional food market in a relevant growth position. Considering that, our goal was to develop, under semi-industrial processing conditions, a healthy meat-based spreadable product (p\u00e2t\u00e9) with reduced fat content through replacement of pork fat by healthier structured oil. Beeswax was used to develop an edible oleogel based on linseed oil with a high content of linolenic acid. A decrease of the hardness and adhesivity was verified for p\u00e2t\u00e9s with oleogel incorporation. Linseed oil inclusion was the main factor leading to an increase of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) content in p\u00e2t\u00e9 samples. A decrease up to 90% in the n-6\/n-3 (omega-6\/omega-3) ratio can signify a better nutritional value of the obtained p\u00e2t\u00e9 samples, which can result in a possible upsurge in omega-3 bioavailability through digestion of these p\u00e2t\u00e9s. This could be an interesting option for the consumption of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, targeting, for example, the reduction of cardiovascular diseases.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/gels6020017","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,22]],"date-time":"2020-05-22T10:18:18Z","timestamp":1590142698000},"page":"17","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":79,"title":["Characterization of Enriched Meat-Based P\u00e2t\u00e9 Manufactured with Oleogels as Fat Substitutes"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"6","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2194-9755","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Artur J.","family":"Martins","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory, Av.
