Homemade Yogurt

Very easy and economical to make and set up very well. I used a cup of dry milk powder, but wouldn't use so much next time, it set up too firmly and lost some of the tanginess I think because of the quantity of milk powder I used. I also used all organic products to make it--where else could you get so much organic yogurt for the price?? Good, easy technique.

I have been making homemade yogurt for years and was interested in the combination of the 2 types of milk. Using some of my reserved yogurt as starter and fat free milk with the powder milk, I placed this in a large glass jar, covered with a towel and placed in the oven with the light on overnight. As I wanted my yogurt thicker, I did strain off some of the whey. The yogurt is thick, creamy and tart.

This made one of the most delicious home-made yogurt I've ever had! Slightly sour and creamy in taste. I used two types of yogurt (indian (SOUR!) and Greek) and full cream milk. Sprinkled the milk powder into the yogurt before it was placed in the oven to set.

This is only my second attempt at making yogurt and I was not pleased with this one. I followed the directions exactly and used my crockpot to "cook" the yogurt. It thickened up nicely, but the taste was way too tart. After it set up in the fridge I added a tsp of vanilla and two tsp of sugar to take away some of the tartness. It helped only slightly. I will use what I have made since milk is not cheap, but I will continue looking for the right yogurt recipe for me.

I made this using just short of 1 cup of dry milk powder, probably 3/4 cup. And I tried my new yogourmet freeze-dried culture as a starter instead of using yogurt from the store -- but now I can just keep this culture going with the next batch. It set up overnight in the oven, came out nice and thick at just warmer than room temperature. When it gets firmer in the fridge, it ought to be nice and thick, which is what I like. Fantastic idea using the dry milk powder, Bonnie! Thanks!

This made a beautiful, creamy, tart yogurt. I used 2% milk, the full cup of powdered milk and the thermos method as in recipe #9955. I had never tried using this little yogurt starter but it worked beautifully.
