Abstract
A yeast extract containing flavoring 5'-neucleotide and having an improved thickness or body in taste is produced by (1) autolyzing suspended yeast cells in the presence of a stimulator of autolysis at a constant pH ranging from 6.0 to 6.6, then (2) heating the autolyzed suspension at a temperature of 90.degree.-110.degree. C. for 1 to 3 hours thereby extracting intracellular ribonucleic acid; and thereafter performing the following steps in any order; (3) hydrolyzing the extracted ribonucleic acid with a 5'-phosphodiesterase and; (4) separating the resulting extract from the insoluble residue.
