Homemade yoghurt
Containing milk, live cultures and the good bacteria your tummy needs - why not try making some homemade yoghurt?
Ingredients:
1 litre simple cow milk
¼ cup natural yoghurt, unsweetened
Directions:
-
Gently heat milk to just above blood temperature, 42C if you have a thermometer - this is the perfect temperature for bacteria to grow.
-
In a clean thermo flask, plastic container or glass bowl, mix milk and yoghurt together until well combined.
-
Screw on lid tightly, wrap in a tea towel, and leave in a warm place overnight or for at least 8 hours (the hot water cupboard is ideal).
-
The next morning, you’ll have fresh yoghurt! If the yoghurt is a little grainy, simply whisk it until smooth.
-
Now you can flavour your yoghurt with anything you like e.g. fruit puree (I like canned black doris plums that have been stoned and pureed) or fruit jam.
