Directions: |
Directions:Pour milk into 4 quart Crock Pot/slow cooker (stir in the non-fat dry milk if using). Cook on low for 2-1/2 hours (or until 165 to 180 degrees). Unplug Crock Pot/slow cooker, leave the cover on and let sit for 3 hours (or until around 115 degrees). If skin has formed during cooling remove it. Take out 2 c. of the warm milk and mix the yogurt/yogurt starter into it then add it to the rest of the milk in the Crock Pot/slow cooker. Replace the cover, leave unplugged and wrap the Crock Pot/slow cooker in 2-3 bath towels. Leave 8-12 hours or overnight.
Refrigerate at least 2 hours before eating. After cooling for 2 hours, you can put the yogurt in a colander lined with cheese cloth and strain out some of the yogurt whey. This leaves a Greek style yogurt or if you strain longer, yogurt cheese. This takes awhile so keep it in the refrigerator while straining. |
