Thanks for all the support at Ignite Boulder 3 last night! I had a great time presenting.
For those of you who are interested in making yogurt, detailed instructions are below.
Yogurt
INGREDIENTS
- 1 qt. whole, lowfat, or nonfat milk
- 1 1/2 tbsp preservative-free, all-natural yogurt with live cultures. live cultures is the important part
MATERIALS
- A heavy bottom stainless steel pot
- Food/candy thermometer
- Large bath towel
- Oven
- Glass quart jar
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 200º
- Bring milk to 180º, just before boiling over medium to low heat
- Remove milk from heat and let cool to 110º
- When milk is cooled to 110º add the 1 1/2 tbsp of yogurt
- Turn off oven
- Place a lid or plastic wrap over the pot, wrap in the bath towel and set in the warmed oven
- It will take between 6-14 hrs for the yogurt to set
- The yogurt is done once it gels, and looks like yogurt!
