Ingredients

- 1/4 cup of plain yogurt (with active cultures)
Instructions
Instructions:
-
Heat the milk in a saucepan over medium heat until it reaches 180°F (82°C). Stir the milk occasionally to prevent scorching.
-
Once the milk reaches 180°F (82°C), remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool down to 110°F (43°C).
-
Add the 1/4 cup of plain yogurt to the cooled milk and whisk well to combine.
-
Pour the mixture into a clean, sterilized glass jar or container with a tight-fitting lid.
-
Place the jar in a warm place (such as a warm oven or a dehydrator) and let it sit undisturbed for 6-12 hours, or until the yogurt has thickened to your desired consistency.
-
Once the yogurt has set, transfer the jar to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
Tips for Success
- Be sure to use a high-quality live yogurt culture for the best results.
- Avoid using ultra-pasteurized milk, as it may not set properly.
- Don't stir or move the yogurt during incubation, as this can affect the final texture.
- You can adjust the incubation time to your liking. A longer incubation time will result in a tangier and thicker yogurt.
