Homemade Yogurt II

Having made plain yogurt successfully, I became more adventurous and decided to try it out with strawberry milk :)
Again, I like to serve it with fresh fruits.

This is already the 3rd batch of my homemade yogurt from the initial starter yogurt. The yogurt became more watery on each new batch made. I suspect it's because I didn't add any dry milk to it. Nevertheless, kids love it and kept asking for more.

Homemade Yogurt

Anyone into yogurt? I'm personally not a fan of yogurt, especially plain yogurt. I only eat flavoured yogurt. It's a different story when it comes to the children.

I made this plain looking yogurt using a recycled glass bottle and omit milk powder since I have none at home (my kids don't drink formula milk).

For this homemade yogurt, I can make 3 batches from the initial starter.

When I first introduced homemade plain yogurt to them, they didn't quite like the taste but after they finished their first serving, they asked for more. Ever since then, I've been making yogurt on a regular basis :)

Sometimes, the kids eat the yogurt plain but I prefer to add it to their fruits. I find that it adds variety to the food that they eat. Here's sharing what the kids had recently.


I couldn't resist buying fresh strawberries especially the ones from Korea!

Add some homemade yogurt to it.

Top it up with some grapes.

And another layer of homemade yogurt. A very healthy dessert :)

Ingredients

2 heap tablespoon milk powder

500ml full cream milk

2 tablespoon yogurt starter

Method

1. Heat the milk till just warm, stir in milk powder.
2. Add in starter yogurt and mix well.
3. Transfer to thermal flask/any container, close and leave to set in a warm place for 6 - 8 hours.
4. Once set, put the yogurt in the fridge or the yogurt will turn too sour.

Own Notes:

I use 250ml UHT milk + 2 tablespoon yogurt starter
