Takeaways

• 😀 You can make yogurt at home with just two ingredients: UHT milk and plain yogurt culture.
• 😀 The process is cost-effective and helps save money on store-bought yogurt, potentially saving hundreds of thousands per month.
• 😀 Begin by heating 1 liter of UHT milk on medium heat, ensuring it does not boil. Heat until it reaches around 70°C.
• 😀 Once the milk reaches the right temperature, allow it to cool to around 40°C, which is the ideal temperature for adding the yogurt culture.
• 😀 Use plain, thick yogurt culture, not a watery one. Mix 80ml of yogurt culture into the cooled milk.
• 😀 Stir the mixture well until the yogurt culture dissolves completely in the milk.
• 😀 Pour the mixture into a clean, dry, and sterilized jar or container. Make sure the jar is sealed tightly.
• 😀 For better results, wrap the jar in a cloth to keep it warm and slightly dark. This helps the fermentation process.
• 😀 Place the jar in a place where it won’t be disturbed and leave it for at least 24 hours for the yogurt to set.
• 😀 The longer the yogurt ferments, the thicker and creamier it becomes due to the growth of beneficial bacteria.
• 😀 You can add sweeteners like simple syrup or honey to flavor the homemade yogurt. Additionally, you can use this yogurt as a starter culture for future batches.
