PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a fermented milk having an increased blending amount of plant-derived solids such as fruit pulp and the like as compared with the conventional fermented milk while meeting component standards as a fermented milk.SOLUTION: The method for producing a fermented milk blended with plant-derived solids includes a step (1) of preparing a fermented milk or an unfermented milk, a step (2) of preparing plant-derived solids, and a step (3) of mixing the fermented milk or the unfermented milk with the plant-derived solids. The step (1) and the step (2) may be performed in reverse order or may be performed concurrently. The step (2) includes a step (2-1) of opening a sterilized container and taking a solid-liquid mixture out of the container in which the solid-liquid mixture contains the plant-derived solids and a sugar solution, and a step (2-2) of separating the plant-derived solids and the sugar solution each contained in the solid-liquid mixture.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】はっ酵乳としての成分規格を維持しながら、従来よりも果肉等の植物由来固形分の配合量を増やしたはっ酵乳を製造する方法の提供。【解決手段】植物由来固形分が配合されたはっ酵乳を製造するための方法であって、(1)はっ酵乳又は未はっ酵乳を調製する工程、(2)植物由来固形分を調製する工程、及び(3)前記はっ酵乳又は未はっ酵乳と前記植物由来固形分とを混合する工程、を含み、前記(1)の工程と前記(2)の工程は前後してもよく、並行して行ってもよく、前記(2)の工程は、(2-1)殺菌済容器を開けて固液混合物を取り出す工程であって、前記固液混合物は植物由来固形分と糖液とを含む該工程と、(2-2)前記固液混合物中の植物由来固形分と糖液とを分離させる工程とを含む該方法。【選択図】図1
