4 probiotic capsules (with 25 billion CFU each or at least 5 capsules with 2.4 billion CFU each)
120 ml plain yogurt from your last batch as a starter ([1/2 cup])

Steps:

  • If using the oven for incubation, preheat it at the lowest temperature for 5 - 10 minutes.
  • Place the milk in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • Turn off and let it cool down to about 42C / 108F.
  • Open the probiotic capsules and sprinkle the powder onto the milk.
  • Whisk and stir until all powder is dissolved.
  • Pour the milk into clean pots and screw the lids on.

  • To serve, you may whisk the yogurt a little for a creamier texture and add sugar, maple syrup or other sweeteners of choice. You may add fruits as natural sweeteners.

CREAMY HOMEMADE YOGURT



Creamy Homemade Yogurt image

Homemade yogurt is a snap to make. All you really need is good quality milk, a few spoonfuls of your favorite plain yogurt to use as a starter culture, and some time to let it sit. You can substitute low-fat milk here if you'd rather; 2 percent works a lot better than 1 percent. Skim milk will give you a thinner yogurt, though if you add some dry milk powder to the milk as it heats (about 1/2 cup), that will help thicken it. Creamline (non-homogenized milk) will give you a cream top on your yogurt. Homogenized milk is smooth throughout.

Time 20m

Yield 1 3/4 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 quarts whole milk, the fresher the better
1/4 cup heavy cream (optional)
3 to 4 tablespoons plain whole milk yogurt with live and active cultures

Steps:

  • Rub an ice cube over the inside bottom of a heavy pot to prevent scorching (or rinse the inside of the pot with cold water). Add milk and cream, if using, and bring to a bare simmer, until bubbles form around the edges, 180 to 200 degrees. Stir the milk occasionally as it heats.
  • Remove pot from heat and let cool until it feels pleasantly warm when you stick your pinkie in the milk for 10 seconds, 110 to 120 degrees. (If you think you'll need to use the pot for something else, transfer the milk to a glass or ceramic bowl, or else you can let it sit in the pot.) If you're in a hurry, you can fill your sink with ice water and let the pot of milk cool in the ice bath, stirring the milk frequently so it cools evenly.
  • Transfer 1/2 cup of warm milk to a small bowl and whisk in yogurt until smooth. Stir yogurt-milk mixture back into remaining pot of warm milk. Cover pot with a large lid. Keep pot warm by wrapping it in a large towel, or setting it on a heating pad, or moving to a warm place, such as your oven with the oven light turned on. Or just set it on top of your refrigerator, which tends to be both warm and out of the way.
  • Let yogurt sit for 6 to 12 hours, until the yogurt is thick and tangy; the longer it sits, the thicker and tangier it will become. (I usually let it sit for the full 12 hours.) Transfer the pot to the refrigerator and chill for at least another 4 hours; it will continue to thicken as it chills.

BEST CREAMIEST UNSWEETENED SOY YOGURT



Best Creamiest Unsweetened Soy Yogurt image

Well after many trials and tribulations I think I have come up with the perfect combo of creamy and tangy unsweetened soy yogurt. I am diabetic and I love soy and yogurt but unfortunately there is so much sugars in yogurts these days. I also don't care for things as sweet as others might so I like to sweeten to taste and I love to add cinnamon to mine after the incubation process. I make this recipe in a 7 jar electric yogurt maker. It is important that all utensils are very clean so it doesn't mess with the starter.

Time 13h30m

Yield 7 6oz jars, 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

5 cups unsweetened soymilk (SILK brand aqua colored box)
1 tablespoon agave syrup or 1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon xanthan gum (for thickening)
1 (5 g) package yogurt starter (yogourmet)

Steps:

  • Combine the soy milk, agave syrup, and xanthan gum in a pan on the stove and whisk to combine the ingredients -- the xanthan gum makes it look lumpy but we will get rid of those later.
  • Heat over medium heat until the mixture reaches 180 F on a candy thermometer, making sure the thermometer is not touching the bottom or sides of the pan, this will ensure a proper reading. Continue to whisk occasionally through the heating process -- everything still looks lumpy -- don't give up.
  • When you reach 180 F turn off the heat and let set for about five minutes then pour into a blender. Blend on the mix setting until it looks very creamy -- mine only took about 30 seconds or so -- look the lumps are gone.
  • Pour into a measuring cup large enough to hold the mixture.
  • Let the mixture sit to cool to 108-112°F Place your candy thermometer on the side of your measuring cup and be patient it takes a little while. Occasionally check the temp with the thermometer towards the center of the measuring cup as the temp does vary and it has to be specific for the yogurt starter.
  • Once the temp has lowered whisk in the yogurt starter making sure to incorporate it thoroughly.
  • Evenly pour it into your incubation jars with the lids off.
  • Place incubator lid on machine and set for 13 hours.
  • Once that is done you will notice that the mixture might have grown a bit but it will deflate slightly as the bubbles incorporated through the blending process will settle. Place lids on individual jars and place in refrigerator to cool. I let mine set for about 12 hours. You probably don't need to let it rest for so long but I like my yogurt ice box cold. You should probably let it rest for at least 2-3 hours as the resting is still part of the process.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality soy milk: Look for unsweetened soy milk that is organic and has a high protein content. This will help to ensure that your yogurt is thick and creamy.
  • Use a yogurt maker: A yogurt maker is the best way to make soy yogurt because it provides a consistent temperature and humidity level. If you don't have a yogurt maker, you can also use a slow cooker or a warm oven.
  • Use a live yogurt culture: A live yogurt culture is essential for making soy yogurt. You can find live yogurt cultures at most health food stores or online.
  • Let the yogurt incubate for at least 8 hours: The longer the yogurt incubates, the thicker and more flavorful it will be. You can incubate the yogurt for up to 24 hours.
  • Strain the yogurt: Straining the yogurt will remove any excess whey and make the yogurt thicker and creamier. You can strain the yogurt through a cheesecloth-lined colander or a fine-mesh sieve.
  • Flavor the yogurt: Once the yogurt is strained, you can flavor it with your favorite fruits, berries, nuts, or spices. You can also add a sweetener, such as honey or maple syrup, if desired.

Conclusion:

Making unsweetened soy yogurt at home is a simple and rewarding process. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can enjoy delicious and healthy soy yogurt that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. So, what are you waiting for? Give it a try today!
