The invention relates to a hydrolysate and a process for the production of the hydrolysate. The process includes a fermenting step wherein a Koji substrate of a protein containing material and a carbohydrate that has been injected with a culture of a lactic acid bacteria that is capable of imparting a specific characteristic note to the hydrolysate is fermented to produce a fermented Koji and a hydrolysis step wherein the fermented Koji is hydrolyzed at a temperature of between about 2&deg; C. and 50&deg; C. and a pH of from about 5.6 to 7.0 for a period of from about 1 to 20 days to produce a hydrolysate. The characteristic note of the hydrolysate is stronger than if the inoculation with the lactic acid bacteria occurred after the fermentation stage.
