This is the best yogurt you will ever taste! It will take a few days to reach the perfect consistency, but it is well worth the wait for a creamy and delicious treat.
INGREDIENTS:
1 GALLON WHOLE MILK
1 QUART HALF & HALF
1 TEASPOON SALT
10 TBS FAT FREE PLAIN YOGURT
DIRECTIONS:
Pour out 1 8oz glass milk and set to side to get to room temperature.
Mix milk, half & half and salt in a large pot.
Bring to boil over low heat. This should take about 50 minutes to 1 hour.
When it begins to boil, turn off heat.
Let cool till 120 degrees.
Add some of cooled milk to 10 heaping tablespoons of low fat or fat free yogurt. Stir well.
Now add yogurt mixture to milk in pot and stir well.
Pour through strainer into another pot. Skim off top. Clean first pot and pour mixture through strainer again into original pot.
Cover pot with lid and large heavy towel. Let stand overnite.
Next day, (approximately 8-10 hours later), put pot in refrigerator.
YOGURT IS READY TO EAT BUT FOR BEST RESULTS, POUR INTO A STRAINER THAT IS LINED WITH CHEESECLOTH. SET THE STRAINER OVER A BOWL TO DRAIN FOR ABOUT 24 HOURS(IN THE REFRIGERATOR).
You will have creamy thick yogurt that is delicious plain or with added fruit. We also serve this with a tomato based orzo for a wonderful side dish
