*How to Make Thick Homemade Yogurt With 3 Ingredients (Milk, Yogurt Culture and Water)*
Do you love yogurt but buying it every time is too expensive? Today I will show you how I make thick, sweet and creamy homemade yogurt at home with just 3 ingredients.
You don't need an oven or any machine. Anyone can do it.
*The 3 Ingredients:*
1. Milk - 1 tin of powdered milk (Peak or Dano)
2. Yogurt Culture - 3 spoons of plain unsweetened yogurt (Farm Fresh or any Greek yogurt)
3. Water - 2 cups of clean water
*What You Will Need:*
Pot, spoon, a container with tight cover, and a thick towel or wrapper.
*Step-by-Step Preparation:*
*Step 1: Mix Your Milk*
Pour 2 cups of water inside a clean pot. Add your powdered milk and stir very well until there are no lumps.
*Step 2: Heat The Milk*
Place the pot on low heat. Heat the milk until it is hot and small bubbles start coming out from the side. Do not allow it to boil too much. Heat for about 5-6 minutes.
*Step 3: Allow It To Cool*
Remove from fire and allow to cool down. It should be warm, not hot. Test with your finger - you should be able to keep your finger inside for 10 seconds without burning. This step is very important because hot milk will kill the culture.
*Step 4: Add Your Yogurt Culture*
Add 3 spoons of plain yogurt into the warm milk and stir gently to mix.
*Step 5: Keep It In A Warm Place*
Pour the mixture into a clean container with cover. Cover tightly and wrap with a thick towel or wrapper to keep it warm. Keep it in a warm corner of your house for 8 to 10 hours. I usually do it overnight. Do not open it during this time.
*Step 6: Refrigerate*
After 8 hours, open it. Your yogurt will be thick. Put it in the fridge for 2 hours. It will become thicker.
*How To Make It Sweet:*
Only add sugar, vanilla flavor or strawberry flavor after the yogurt has already set. If you add sugar before, it will not set well.
*3 Tips To Make Your Yogurt Very Thick:*
1. Use full cream milk, not low fat milk.
2. Do not add too much water.
3. If your house is cold, leave it for 10 hours.
I make this yogurt every week at home. It is very easy, clean and saves me money. You can also package it and sell to people around you to make extra income.
