Easy Homemade Yogurt
makes 4 cups
made in my Salton Yogurt Maker
4 cups of 1% organic milk
1/2 cup dry non-fat milk powder
1/2 cup organic yogurt starter
Put milk in a clean metal saucepan and place over medium heat. Add milk powder and stir until dissolved completely. Heat until nearly boiling, about 185 degrees. Watch carefully though because you don't want to boil the milk.
Remove the milk from the heat and let it cool to 100 - 110 degrees. You can do this one of two ways - let it cool on the counter. (This takes way too long for me.) Or, pour the milk into a clean bowl and set the bowl with the milk into a larger bowl with ice in it. (This is called an ice bath.)
Stir every 1o minutes or so until the yogurt temps between 100 and 110 degrees. Put the yogurt starter into a glass measuring cup. Add some of the warm milk to the starter and stir until it's combined and smooth. Stir this into the milk.
Divide evenly between the glass jars, pop the plastic lids on, and place in your handy yogurt maker. Put on the plastic lid, plug in, and turn on. Leave yogurt in the yogurt maker for 6 - 10 hours, depending on how you like your yogurt. I took mine out at 10 hours. It's perfectly divine.
