MULTI-LAYER FERMENTED MILK PRODUCT IN CONTAINER, PRODUCTION METHOD THEREOF, AND SAUCE FOR FERMENTED MILK PRODUCT

摘要

Disclosed is a method for producing a rich fermented milk having the original hardness and dense texture of the fermented milk. Disclosed is a method for producing a multi-layer fermented milk of a post-fermentation type, including the steps of: filling a container with a raw material milk to which a starter has been added and a sugar-containing liquid so as not to mix the raw material milk and the sugar-containing liquid, wherein the sugar-containing liquid has an amount of 15.0% by mass or more of the total amount of the raw material milk and the sugar-containing liquid, and the sugar-containing liquid has a solid content of 20.0% by mass or more; and fermenting the raw material milk in the filled container to obtain a multi-layer fermented milk product in a container in which a fermented milk layer having a higher solid content than the raw material milk is formed and a storage modulus G′, which is an index of hardness of the fermented milk, is 1200 Pa or more. The produced fermented milk has a fermented milk layer having a solid content of 20.0% by mass or more and a sugar-containing liquid layer adjacent to and below the fermented milk layer.
