There are lots of different ways to make lots of different types of yoghurt, this is how I make plain yoghurt with the things I already have at home.

To make any type of yoghurt, you must use a starter (something that contains the bacteria that causes milk to become yoghurt), provide food (milk) for the bacteria to feed on and keep it all at a temperature that allows the bacteria to grow and reproduce themselves.

How to make yoghurt

Image

Heat the milk to boiling point in the pan then remove from heat.

Allow the milk to cool to blood temperature (like a baby’s bottle) then remove the skin that forms on top.

Image

For each pint of milk you’re using, add one tablespoon of yoghurt to the jug.

Image

Then add a little of the milk and stir well.

Image

Add the remaining milk and stir again.

Image

Pour the mixture into your flask and leave it for eight hours.

Image

Reserve a little as a starter for your next batch.

Add fruit and/or honey and refrigerate.
