How To Make Yogurt

[myStupidPlaylist]

1. Your hans are FILTHY!!

2. You cant heat up plastic containers in the oven duh...

[justinbieberfan842]

ok thumbs up if you were like watching the video and then one of the ingredients was yougurt if you have yougurt as one of the ingredients than you already have yougurt

[thexbigxgreen]

@justinbieberfan842 Uhh it's called self-perpetuating... You need some kind of starter to make yogurt, you can either buy the powder or you can use yogurt. You might as well use leftover yogurt so you never have to buy starter

[radtwelve]

oh! i thought it was easy to make yogurt and now i've decided to just buy them regularly... :((

[MrPsychokiller69]

yeah so it mean that I need a YOGURT to make a YOGURT!? what!?? then how can I make that yogurt that is being used to make the other yogurt that you are doing right now? @_@

[supercell42]

@MrPsychokiller69 hahaha exactly! how was the first ever yogurt made?? Oo

[MrPsychokiller69]

@supercell42 yeah hahaha the "first" bcoz I'm so confused

[feathercloud1]

I am horrified with this little Video. Microwaving milk??? - putting it in PLASTIC containers and heating it in the oven??? TOXIC! Nothing beneficial in that product you are making. OMG!!!

[Hoerwick]

@feathercloud1 yeh i agree! better is just to cook the milk normally as usual, and preheat the container where it is gonna be stored for those 8 hours..

[psilokan]

Please don't microwave milk. Not only does it change the physical properties of the milk solids but it also has the potential to explode when you try and stir it after. Also, don't use fat free milk, use real milk. Milk fat is good for you, that's why we feed it to babies.

[baire702]

hi, can I use my electric oven for the milk to sit in and firm itself? when you mentioned oven with pilot light on, it sounds like what you have is a gas oven.

thanks, Caryl

[swatcher]

using microwave just made the dead(pasteurized) milk become double dead

[perrytonik]

So why is it that everyone tells me i need yoghurt to make yoghurt??

[MrMarkA]

ever hear of a stove top?

[chulitaDominicanita]

thats retarded....!! Why would you use yugurt when you're trying to make it.... -_-

[btstv]

Yes, duh...making yogurt out of yogurt. Where do you think yogurt, bread, and cheese all come from? They come from a small piece that you add to milk or cream and get a larger amount. I've made a whole gallon of yogurt just by adding a small cup of yogurt to a 1 gal. jug of milk. What kind of milk you use and the type of yogurt totally make the difference in what you get.

[munkey1092]

wth...making yogurt...with yogurt?

[kelRapunzel]

This is not real yogurt ,sorry

dry milk?

most important thing is your yeasting yogurt must be a real yogurt not a market yogurt ..you can get it from a dairymilk producer sheep farmer or villagers since they keep original yogurt yeast (culture) .

real yogurt gets sour in two days ,if your yogurt remain same taste after two days its not real yogurt ,its something else can be called "yogurtlike dairy product"

[bordereye]

Bad that you use the microwave.

[ProudlyQatari]

Your making yogurt out of yogurt

[plasticdoll1000]

looks kinda grosss i think i'll stick to buying it

[okpapereat]

yum.. i made my own yoghurt and it was amazing

[steveski74]

why are people so obsessed with micowaving? What's wrong with a stovetop?

[1IIIIIIIIII1]

I GOT MAD ONE NIGHT AND THREW MY MICROWAVE OUT THE BACK DOOR AND THEN SHOT IT WITH A SHOTGUN, SO WOULD IT BE ALRIGHT TO HEAT THE MILK ON A STOVE IN A PAN THEN? THANKS

[coolywelts]

i can just buy yogurt. this is bullshit.

[kelRapunzel]

@coolywelts because they are no more yogurt. i call them "matrix yogurt"

.they dont taste like yogurt they dont get sour and i hate "pudinglike sweet weird white stuff "sold in market..

thats why i usually never buy from market , prefer village yogurt-and real herders make it best

or some local brands can be good sometimes

[Quick209]

She is using the active cultures in already made yogurt to create her own. If you could get the cultures you could do it without the adding of yogurt. This way is the simplest and cheapest way to do it without having to grow your own cultures or purchase them.

[MrDarkzSin]

lol you make yogurt out of yogurt

[luvkalel]

ok everyone, let's make banana bread. first you'll need a loaf of banana bread. then a knife to slice it. and a plate. and ta-dah! you made banana bread!

[gradysupersix]

that is redarded green my bollox

[dodrio100]

Is that worth making it when you already have it in front of you ??

[Eminemgurlsforever]

dude u r already using yogurt in the first place :|

[iowaganondorf]

the interesting thing about the lactobacilli (the bacteria that makes yogurt by fermenting lactose to lactic acid) is that there are strains of it that protect parts of the body, like those that make the vaginal canal acidic.

[ashram97]

wait... u need yogurt to make yogurt?? am i on track? :S

[raficsulejmanovic]

There must simpler ways than what is described here.

[kurokamei]

can i use any milk and any yoghurt(flavoured), that i get from the store?

[cadaverock]

bullshit granny I JUST BUY A 12 PACK OF YOGURT FOR $3.99 AND I SAVE MY SELF THIS BULLSHIT !

[beanburritojon]

do you turn the oven on at all>???

[spdrcd]

i dont really understand?? make yogert from yogert?? what make yogert different from yogert??

[Naraszuhra]

I'm sure you could add heavy cream and it would make it more like greek yogurt. I would let the cream come to room temp and add it when you add the starter to cooled milk. Alternatively you could add it at the beginning before you heat to 180.

[4TensCakes]

@Naraszuhra

Actually I'm pretty sure what people call "Greek Yogurt" is just strained yogurt which means you squeeze most of the liquid out of it after you make it in order to thicken it. I would go through the normal process you described in your video with the same ingredients and then when it is done cooling strain it using a cloth and the let it drip for a few ours (maybe overnight?) Should taste good with something sweet like fruit or honey.

[Naraszuhra]

@4TensCakes I think you're correct about Greek Yogurt although Greek yogurt typically has more fat content than what my recipe has. I did however, strain the yogurt overnight and make yogurt cheese out of it. The end product was like soft cream cheese and tasted really good on crackers or toast.

[universalradio]

@Naraszuhra I believe greek yogurt is made by straining regular yogurt until it's really thick. Commercial greek yogurt has added heavy cream/thickeners.

[davidsaraiva108]

@Naraszuhra

Hello, congratulations for the video, I enjoyed the discussions and would like to share with you a "secret" I do not dispense. For the yogurt has the traditional consistency and whey does not separate from the mass the "secret" is simmering milk for at least 5 to 10min. I do not use microwave to make yogurt. Let cool to about 113 ° F (45 ° C), about 10 seconds with your finger in the milk, and finally add the yogurt. This process creates a partial denaturation of milk.

[davidsaraiva108]

For a more consistent yogurt I use a cotton cloth to drain the whey. I particularly like to make Shrikhand to cover cakes.

[oskana00]

can add heavy cream instead of dry powder? If so at what point?

[dbloodline]

people dont try this at home, this is bad bad yogurt.... yogurt should be made with organic grass fed raw milk and should never be heated so much because it will damage the nutrients in the milk and not to mention the important probiotic bacteria which is what make yogurt a health food. Raw yogurt is the way.

[findfede]

you have to spend money on the first plain yogurt, but besides that you use some of what is left over of your batch to make the next, and a little of that batch to make the next, etc...so you have to spend money at first and then not have to spend extra again

[roxiexd]

Very nice vid; I have watched a couple of others but yours was easy to follow. Thank you for making it.

[Naraszuhra]

@roxiexd Thank you very much. I had a lot of fun making the video and I'm glad you enjoyed watching it.

[cbakerazle]

I found this very informative and easy to understand. Lots of confused people commenting.

[Naraszuhra]

@cbakerazle Thanks for posting. I really appreciate the encouraging words!

[argydubbaya]

Is this how the swiss made it in 1823? Good video tho, Thanks

[Naraszuhra]

the chicken or the egg who knows? Guys, don't knock til you try it and if you haven't tried it stop complaining, no ones forcing ya to do anything. Just one person's opinion.

[diggsmccoy]

The Green Way, eh? With a powdered milk and a microwave... Good Job lady!

[DraciaNightcat]

if you needed to use yogurt to make yogurt, then where did the first ever yogurt recipe come from...?

[soccersmitty96]

if your making your own yogurt.....why would you use yogurt to make it????

[thpt]

Saran wrap releases awful things like formaldehyde when you nuke it. Bad idea. Do your research.

[livesnake]

@thpt

microwaves are radio waves like your cell phone NOT NUCLEAR in any way

do your research!

[gmarc166]

I like the blindfold chef's recipe better - it's a lot less complicated.  Not sure I like the idea of microwaving the milk either, or putting plastic tubs in the oven.

[hellomoto4000]

yeah i agree, too much radiation.

[MidwestMockingbird]

microwaving=bad for you

[dbzbretton]

Can you use Almond Milk or Ride Milk instead of whole milk?

[Naraszuhra]

I'm not sure

[5604753]

wow...

[HeartlandCalli]

Plastic in n oven and mirowave ?!

[Naraszuhra]

Saran wrap: plastic you can use in the microwave

[guitar4art]

10 minutes in the microwave sounds like a long time.

[Naraszuhra]

sounds like a long time but when the milk is cold it really just warms to just below boiling

[supersport22]

microwave the milk? ugh....sorry....that sounds gross.

[Naraszuhra]

then you probably don't like yogurt either

[goldiekat70]

Can you tell me how to make a drinkable yogurt?

[greenlocomotive]

dont, make kifir

[Naraszuhra]

Add milk

[goldiekat70]

If a person isn't lucky enough to have a gas stove what temp do you put the oven on?

[dbloodline]

yogurt should be made with raw milk ONLY!

[yves2013]

you need yogurt to make yogurt. kind of goes against the whole idea of MAKING real yogurt

[JagoReedJones]

No that's how you make yoghurt, the bacteria in the yoghurt spreads through the milk into the rest of the milk making that into yoghurty

[JagoReedJones]

*yoghurt

But yeah you need the bacteria to make more yoghurt, and the easest way is to get it from allready existing yoghurt

[bonzaibb12]

@yves2013 there are only 2 ways to make buy the cultures packets which are expensive when you include shipping costs or buy a quality yogurt with no additives and preferably organic.( Real ) yogurt was always made throughout history by using the yogurt from your last batch. Sorry but that's how the real stuff is made. The quality and taste is determined by how long you let it ferment, the quality of milk you use and the quality of your yogurt culture If you like it firm or greekstyle strain it.

[tinseltownchick]

@yves2013 yeah i know!! exactly what i said!

[supercooled]

@yves2013 That's exactly what popped into my head when the video said that. It really defeats the purpose. I want to make simple yogurt from milk and save on money. This isn't very cost efficient.

[bluefavorites]

@yves2013 But the thing is..once you make your first batch from the storebought yogurt, you can use a bit of your homemade yogurt for your next batch. So as long as you have the supplies, you can make yogurt FOREVER!!!!!

[AuntDuddie]

@yves2013 It's like sour dough starter - you always keep a little bit of the last batch of dough to ferment the new batch of dough. Some starters are hundreds of years old. I like this vid. I would have liked to see the yogurt spooned out to get a sense of the thickness. Thanks for posting.

[itsumonihon]

@yves2013 stupid, it's called a starter culture. you could let your yogurt sit out on the counter forever and hope that the milk catches the right bacteria (but more likely catches some horrible killing bacteria and you die). or you can put in a little yogurt as a starter and then from that point on use your own yogurt as a starter in the future. it's the same way people make many kinds of bread.

[Komputerism]

whats the deal with the low fat/nonfat products ? does the fat content make any difference in the yogurt process?

[pmabz]

you need yoghurt to make yoghurt. or some yoghurt-making bacteria.

[Naraszuhra]

That's exactly right. The specific bacteria in already prepared yogurt converts the milk into yogurt. You could just let the milk sit but the bacteria that might cause themilk to spoil is not the same bacteria as the one in the prepared yogurt.

[JashanSKang]

why are u making yogurt with yogurt as an ingredient.. i wanna know how to make yogurt from scratch not with yogurt already in the mix

[Naraszuhra]

you need the specific yogurt bacteria to convert the milk into yogurt as opposed to sour milk.

[cyl087013]

i hv a question.

can i do t yogurt without heating or put into oven?

[captainemre]

yes you can. Here is how: you have to be in warmer climate where average temperature is around 100. Place milk in to a container let it sit outside until reaches 100. then add yougurt starter and seal.Will be ready in 8 hours.

[Naraszuhra]

You need the temp to be constant around 115 degrees so the yogurt bacteria has optimal conditions in which to grow and produce yogurt. The pilot light in the oven provides a good control environment. Without the heat it would take longer for the bacteria to convert the milk into yogurt and you might end up with soured milk as opposed to yogurt
