Do you love to eat yogurt? Have you been buying yogurt from supermarket? How about making your own yogurt? This recipe is easy and healthy.
Yogurt is created by the propagation of bacteria cultures. Hence placing yogurt into milk with the right temperature will allow the bacteria to spread and form yogurt.
Yogurt
Ingredients:
- 1 Litre of Low Fat or Full Cream Milk
- 1 Cup of Plain Yogurt (those that you usually buy from supermarket)
- 1 - 2 tablespoon of sugar Or honey (the quantity depend on your preference)
Instructions:
Pour the milk into the stove and cook for 8 - 10 minutes. Stir the milk occasionally.
Let the milk cool down to lukewarm temperature.
Add the Plain Yogurt. Stir to blend in.
Cover the the stove with the stove lid. Use a Thick towel to wrap the stove up. Ferment the Yogurt for about 8 to 10 hours or wait until the next morning.
Unwrap the yogurt. The Yogurt should have form the shape just like jelly beancurd.
Place the Yogurt into the refrigerator until next day or night time.
