Thank you, Emily, for your super duper, easy peasy recipe for making homemade yogurt. Even with raw milk this worked perfectly on my first try, which really is saying something….
Ingredients:
1 quart whole milk {raw will work}
1 Tbsp. yogurt {I used Seven Springs Organic, Plain}
Instructions:
- Heat milk over low to medium heat to 18o degrees Fahrenheit.
- Turn off the heat and let the temperature drop to 110 degrees.
- Pour warm milk into quart-size mason jar or other suitable container.
- Stir in yogurt and put on the lid.
- Place the jar of milk and a second jar full of hot water {I boiled water while the milk cooled} in a cooler. I also stuffed an old towel in the cooler for extra insulation.
- Wait 24 hours and enjoy!
Of course the result is plain yogurt, so if you prefer something sweet, you can sweeten it with honey or maple syrup. Add vanilla for a little extra something.
Enjoy! {OvO}
