Tips For Making Yoghurt In The Thermomix

Use Full Cream Milk

This results in a thicker yoghurt than skim milk.

Milk Powder

Milk powder helps to thicken the yoghurt.

Use A High Quality Pot Set Yoghurt As The Starter

We recommend using a high quality pot set yoghurt (like Jalna) as it needs to have active cultures. Once you’ve made you first batch of yoghurt, you can reserve 100g to use as the starter for the next batch.

Varying The Amount Of Sugar

In this recipe we use 40g caster sugar. You can reduce this amount if you prefer a less sweet yoghurt. You can also increase it if you prefer a sweeter yoghurt. It might take a few batches to work out the amount of sugar you like.

Keep The Yoghurt Warm For 12 Hours

In order for your yoghurt to be thick and creamy, it needs to be kept warm for 12 hours. I recommend warming a ThermoServer with boiling water, then pouring out the water and drying it thoroughly before pouring in the yoghurt. I like to then wrap my ThermoServer in a large blanket and place it into a warm room (I use the laundry). The longer the yoghurt is left out of the fridge, the more acidic it will taste. I find that 12 hours is perfect (if you live in a hot climate, 8-10 hours is probably sufficient).

Store In An Airtight Container In The Fridge

The yoghurt will continue to thicken up to 24 hours after it’s refrigerated.

Doubling The Recipe

This recipe can easily be doubled.
