This invention relates to a process for producing a lactose-free milk which does not confer a sweet taste to the milk normally resulting from the hydrolysis of lactose into monosaccharides. The process comprises the step of reducing the lactose content of the milk to about 3 % prior to hydrolysis with lactase. When the milk is skimmed milk, the protein content may be increased to about 3.8-4.0 % or greater, which further improves the organoleptic properties of the milk. Milk so processed and dairy products derived therefrom are also disclosed and claimed.

L'invention concerne un procédé de production d'un lait sans lactose, ne conférant pas au lait un goût doucereux, lequel résulte de l'hydrolyse de lactose en monosaccharides. Ce procédé comprend l'étape consistant à réduire la teneur en lactose du lait à environ 3 %, avant hydrolyse avec une lactase. Lorsque le lait est du lait écrémé, la teneur en protéines peut être augmentée jusqu'à environ 3,8-4 % ou davantage, ce qui améliore encore les propriétés organoleptiques du lait. L'invention concerne également du lait ainsi traité et des produits laitiers dérivés de ce lait.
