Fermented milk drink technology with orange syrup

Abstract

Nowadays in the dairy industry, the combination of raw materials of plant origin with a dairy base can be noted. Received dairy products have a functional orientation. The product line is expanding with every new filler. This allows the consumers to choose the product they like. The properties of the starter cultures used for fermented milk products were studied by the authors, and the choice of starter culture was carried out. The starter culture “Narine” was used in the development of a method for the fermented milk drink production. The choice of starter culture was made taking into account the more pronounced bactericidal antibiotic properties of acidophilus bacillus in relation to some harmful and pathogenic bacteria compared to other starter cultures. The choice of flavor component was carried out to expand the assortment of fermented milk drink. Experiments showed that yellow and orange colors affect the perception of the buyer positively. They help to cope with fatigue and depression. They are closer to the natural colors of dairy products; therefore, in the production of this fermented milk drink, the orange filler in the form of syrup was used. Mass fraction of orange syrup ranged from 1 to 7%. The optimal dosage was 5%. With the help of it the drink had a clean sour-milk taste and the orange smell, a uniform consistency and a yellowish color. The recipe was selected and the technology of fermented milk drink, which involves the introduction of orange syrup in the fermented product, was developed. The main organoleptic, physico-chemical and microbiological indicators of the fortified fermented milk drink were studied in the work. The compliance of the quality indicators of the fermented milk drink with the requirements of the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union “On the Safety of Milk and Dairy Products” (TR TS 033/2013) was determined.
