Disclosed are processes for preparing dry or powder dairy compositions having low lactose contents and containing polyphenol compounds. The resultant dry or powder dairy compositions can be used to form reconstituted fluid dairy products, which can have improved organoleptic properties, such as less cooked flavor, sulfur odor, and brown color.

The present invention relates to a browning-inhibiting composition containing a compound represented by the following formula (1):

##STR00001##

wherein R.sup.21, R.sup.22, R.sup.23, R.sup.24, R.sup.26 and R.sup.27 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or a substituent, and at least one of R.sup.21 or R.sup.23 is a hydrogen atom; when R.sup.23 represents a hydrogen atom, at least one of R.sup.22 or R.sup.24 represents a substituent; R.sup.25 represents a hydrogen atom, an oxygen atom, or a substituent; R.sup.22 and R.sup.23, or R.sup.23 and R.sup.24 may be bonded together to form a ring with an oxygen atom and a carbon atom to which these Rs are bonded; R.sup.25 and R.sup.26, or R.sup.26 and R.sup.27 may be bonded together to form a ring structure with carbon atoms to which these Rs are bonded; X represents an oxygen atom or CH.sub.2; and a dashed line may represent a double bond.
