A strain of Yarrowia lipolytica has a deposit number of GDMCC No: 60782, and has been deposited on Sep. 20, 2019, in Guangdong Microbial Culture Collection Center located at Guangdong Institute of Microbiology, 5th Floor, Building 59, No. 100 Xianliezhong Road, Guangzhou City. A low-sugar and low-fat nutritional powder of desiccated coconut is prepared by: mixing a desiccated coconut with water, and heating; then pulping the heat-treated desiccated coconut, homogenizing an obtained coconut milk, adjusting a pH value, and sterilizing, to obtain a desiccated coconut suspension; inoculating a culture solution of the Yarrowia lipolytica in the desiccated coconut suspension after being cooled, and fermenting; and sterilizing an obtained fermentation broth, spray drying, and pulverizing, to obtain the low-sugar and low-fat nutritional powder of desiccated coconut. The above-mentioned nutritional powder of desiccated coconut is abundant in nutrition, has a strong coconut flavor, and is suitably used as instant drinks for all people.

Microbial starter cultures. More specifically, a method for preparing a microbial culture such as a lactic acid bacteria (LAB) starter culture wherein at least one microbial strain such as a lactic acid bacteria and at least one inactivated yeast strain is inoculated in a culture medium.

This application relates generally to aerial mycelium and methods of making aerial mycelium suitable for use as a food or textile product or ingredient. The aerial mycelium can be grown using a growth matrix provided into a growth environment and introducing aqueous mist into the growth environment. The aqueous mist has a mean mist deposition rate to allow for aerial mycelial growth from the growth matrix.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for preparing such compositions, the compositions comprising cereal hydrolysates fermented by one or more strain(s) of the genus Kazachstania and/or Lachancea, and in particular Kazachstania bulderi, Kazachstania exigua and/or Lachancea thermotolerans. The compositions are used in the preparation of bakery and/or patisserie products.
