Abstract: A novel co-fermented food product formed from oats and dairy is described herein. The co-fermented food product includes a grain ingredient, a dairy ingredient, and a bacterial culture. The novel co-fermented food product includes a set of metabolites derived from the co-fermentation of the oat ingredient and the dairy ingredient by the bacterial culture.

Abstract: Processing of milk raw material produces a dairy salt. Preliminary treatment of the milk raw is carried out, with pasteurization and its concentration by nanofiltration through a filter with a pore size of 0.001-0.01 ?m, subsequent filtration of the obtained nanofiltration permeate through a membrane module with a pore size of 0.0001-0.001 ?m of a reverse osmosis unit, electrodialysis of the obtained RO retentate, concentration of the concentrate or its concentration and drying. The dairy salts may be manufactured and used to salt food products, beverages, granulated cottage cheese, potato chips, crackers, and dips. A masking fraction with organic acid, amino acid, fatty acid, and sugar portions successfully hides the off-notes otherwise associated with potassium compositions. Food products salted with any of the dairy salts described herein achieve reduced sodium content without compromising flavor.

Abstract: A dairy product comprising a sweetened dairy composition with a mass ratio of lactose to glucose equal to 1.0:2.7 to 2.6:1.5 and a mass ratio of lactose to galactose equal to 1.0:2.2 to 2.6:1.1. In a second aspect, a method comprises hydrolyzing lactose in the starting dairy composition in a lactase-catalyzed hydrolysis reaction and deactivating the reaction to provide a lactose percent conversion of 46 to 80 wt. %. In a third aspect, a dairy product comprises a fermented sweetened dairy composition comprising a lactose:glucose mass ratio of 0.01:2.4 to 1.0:1.0 and a lactose:galactose mass ratio of 0.01:2.7 to 1.0:1.0. In a fourth aspect, a method comprises hydrolyzing and fermenting lactose in a starting dairy composition, thereby providing a fermented sweetened dairy composition with a lactose percent conversion of 80 to 100 wt. %.
