Abstract
The present invention addresses the problem of providing a soybean-derived raw material-containing food or beverage that improves problems with flavor and physical properties, such as the grassy smell caused by soybean raw materials, and markedly improves product quality, in a soybean-derived raw material-containing food or beverage using a conventional soybean raw material such soymilk or tofu. Provided are a milk-substitute composition, an egg yolk-substitute composition, and a composition for improving renal function, etc., characterized by including a reduced-fat soybean protein material having a total protein and carbohydrate content relative to dry material of at least 80 wt %, a fat content (as a chloroform/methanol mixed solvent extract) relative to the protein content of less than 10 wt %, and a total campesterol and stigmasterol (as plant-derived sterols) content of at least 200 mg relative to 100 g of fat. Also provided are a variety of soybean-derived raw material-containing food and beverages using these compositions.
