There are some wonderful store-bought yogurts out there, but homemade will always have my heart. Just milk, live cultures, a little patience, and a texture that’s hard to compete with. Some things are simply better made from scratch. 🤍 My Homemade Plain Yogurt Recipe — Just 2 Ingredients Ingredients: * 1 gallon (3.78 L) whole milk * 2 tablespoons plain yogurt with live active cultures (as your starter) Instructions: 1. Heat the milk: Pour the milk into a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Slowly heat to 180°F (82°C), stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. Maintain approximately 180°F for 30 minutes, stirring gently as needed. This helps evaporate some moisture and creates a thicker, creamier yogurt. 2. Cool the milk: Remove from the heat and allow the milk to cool to 110°F (43°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy. Remove the skin that forms on top. 3. Add the starter: In a separate bowl, whisk the 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt with about ½ cup of the warm milk until smooth. Gently stir this mixture back into the pot. 4. Incubate: Transfer the mixture into clean glass jars or leave it in the covered pot. Keep it undisturbed at approximately 110°F (43°C) for 12 hours. A yogurt maker, temperature-controlled oven, or another reliable warm environment works well. Avoid overheating. 5. Refrigerate: Once the yogurt has set, refrigerate for at least 12 hours without disturbing it. This allows it to firm up and develop its texture. 6. Strain for extra thickness: For that beautiful, thick scoop, transfer the chilled yogurt into a fine-mesh yogurt strainer lined with cheesecloth, if needed. Strain in the refrigerator for approximately 12 hours for Greek-style yogurt or up to 24 hours for a thicker, labneh-like consistency. My little secret: The thermometer, patience, and proper chilling make all the difference. Don’t rush the process! Would you make your own yogurt, or are you loyal to your favorite store-bought brand? I’m genuinely curious! 👀 #homemadeyogurt #greekstyleyogurt #fromscratchcooking #plainyogurt #homemadefood
