A thicker unflavored version without extra additives, more tangy than bland. Good for cooking.

Ingredients
  • 1 quart of milk, organic, whole or skim
  • 1/2 cup of non-fat dry milk powder
  • 1/2 cup of organic plain yogurt (health food store)

Directions
  1. Combine milk, dry milk powder in saucepan, bring to a boil.
  2. Immediately remove from heat and cool for 15 minutes.
  3. Add a little of the lukewarm milk to plain yogurt starter and beat lightly with a wire whisk. Add in remaining milk and beat lightly.
  4. Pour into a deep ceramic (foodsafe) crock and cover with a clean cloth. Secure with a rubber band.
  5. Place in unlit (gas) oven for about 4 1/2 hours for a mild yogurt.
  6. Longer for a tangier curd. After yogurt has fermented, chill very well before using. Save a small amount as a starter for your next batch.
  7. Can be flavored and saved tightly covered and refrigerated.
  8. Great as a marinade for lamb.
  9. Good in soup preparations.

For people without a gas oven.
I use a large picnic cooler. Boil water in a tea kettle. Place kettle in cooler next to but not touching yogurt mixture. Put the lid on the cooler. It works great.
