Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing fractions of a milk composition by treating a milk composition with a phospholipase and separating it into at least two fractions with different fat content. The fractions obtained have improved properties for producing food products. The invention further relates to a method for producing food products from one or more of the fractions obtained. In further aspects the invention relates to methods for producing condensed milk, milk powder, butter and dairy spread from a milk composition treated with a phospholipase.
Claims6
A method for producing a combined milk fraction comprising:
- i) treating a milk composition with a phospholipase;
- and
- ii) separating the treated milk composition into at least two fractions with different fat content, mixing two or more fractions obtained in step ii), wherein the combined milk fraction has a different fat content than the milk composition from which the two or more milk fractions were obtained.
A method for producing a combined milk fraction, comprising:
- a) treating a first milk composition with a phospholipase;
- and
- b) separating the treated milk composition into at least two milk fractions with different fat content;
- and
- c) separating a second milk composition into at least two fractions;
- and
- d) treating at least one milk fraction obtained from said second milk composition as a result of step c with a phospholipase;
- and
- e) combining at least one milk fraction obtained from said first milk composition as a result of step b) with at least one phospholipase treated milk fraction obtained as a result of step d).
