METHOD FOR PRODUCING FERMENTED MILK USING RAW MATERIAL MIX CONTAINING MATERIAL STERILIZED AT ULTRA-HIGH TEMPERATURE

摘要

The present invention addresses the problem of solving problems of the conventional techniques and producing, by an economically advantageous means, fermented milk having hardness to such an extent that the texture of the fermented milk can be kept during distribution.The present invention relates to a method for producing fermented milk, comprising homogenizing a raw material mix under a high pressure to reduce the average particle diameter of a fat and then fermenting the homogenized product. More specifically, the present invention relates to: a method for producing fermented milk using a material that is sterilized at an ultra-high temperature, said method comprising homogenizing a fat in a raw material mix, which contains a material sterilized at an ultra-high temperature, under a high pressure and then fermenting the resultant product; and fermented milk produced by the method.
