ABSTRACT:
A method for preparing a milk-based composition comprising a homopolysaccharide is provided whereby a mixture comprising milk and fermentable sugar is fermented with a homopolysaccharide-producing microorganism under anaerobic conditions, without regulating the pH, and the fermentation is stopped before the pH of the mixture drops below pH 5.5. Food products comprising such compositions are also provided.
