英语. Food transition requires incorporating more plant-based ingredients in our diet, thus leading to the development of new plant-based products, such as yogurt alternatives (YAs). This study aimed at evaluating the impact of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) cocultures and formulation on the physico-chemical and sensory properties of YAs. YAs were made by emulsifying anhydrous milk fat (AMF) or coconut oil in milk and lupin protein suspensions. The starters used, in mono-and cocultures, were the strains Lactococcus lactis NCDO2125, Enteroccocus faecalis CIRM-BIA2412 and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum CIRM-BIA1524. Textural properties and metabolites of YAs were evaluated and their sensory properties compared using a sorting task. Some cocultures led to higher firmness, viscosity, and water holding capacity of YAs, compared to monocultures. AMF and a milk:lupin protein ratio of 67:33 gave firmer and more viscous YAs. YAs were sensorially discriminated on the basis of protein ratio and fat type, but not of starters. The cocultures exhibited more diverse functional outputs, such as texturing, production of flavour compounds, proteolysis, when the strains associated in coculture had distinct capacities. Appropriate associations of LAB and formulation offer interesting solutions to improve the perception of YAs, and ultimately, encourage their consumption.
