This study investigated various strategies: mono-, simultaneous and sequential fermentation of halophilic Candida versatilis and Tetragenococcus halophilus to valorize salted whey, a side stream of salted tofu (pressed beancurd) production, with an ultimate goal of creating a soy sauce-like condiment. Growth, glucose, organic acids were monitored throughout fermentation, while free amino acids and volatile compounds were analyzed on the final days. In monoculture fermentation, both C.

The four LAB included non-halophilic ML Prime, PCC, Enoferm Beta and halophilic DSM20337. At 2% salt, all LAB grew remarkably from day 0 to day 1, except for , while at 6% salt, the growth of , and was suppressed.

However, it is often under-utilized due to its high salt content. The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using different species of yeast to transform salted soy whey into a soy sauce-like condiment.
