Whey protein hydrolysates ( WPH ) were prepared from whey protein concentrate ( WPC ) by partial or extensive hydrolysis. WPC and two WPH types were characterized by a descriptive sensory analysis. WPC exhibited a “milky”, “sweet”, and “mild milk fat” odor, whereas extensively hydrolyzed whey protein (E‐ WPH ) demonstrated “cheese‐like”, “acrid odor”, and “sour” olfactory characteristics. In E‐ WPH , 3‐(methylthio)‐propanal, phenylacetaldehyde, and 3‐methylbutanoic acid were specifically detected with high flavor dilution factors upon aroma extract dilution analysis. These odor‐active compounds likely contributed to the olfactory characteristics of E‐ WPH , and their concentration increased together with that of their respective putative precursors: free methionine, phenylalanine, and leucine.
