    5. Add 6 tablespoons of starter yoghurt (This is natural pot set yoghurt, or reserve 6 tablespoons of your finished product to use as starter yoghurt for your next batch)

Tip

Make sure you start with a very clean TM bowl. You can add or reduce sugar to suit your taste. You could remove sugar and vanilla to make Natural Yoghurt. Do not be tempted to peak into the Thermoserver while the yoghurt is setting, do not touch it at all. This is a great recipe to cook after dinner, put in the fridge overnight and take out in the morning to do the final cooking steps before leaving to sit for 9.5hours. No waiting around for the temps to drop etc. I take out 6 tablespoons of yoghurt once it has set, and put that in a separate container in my fridge so it doesn't accidentally get gobbled up!

  • I've tried 3 other yogurt

    Submitted by tessvp on 14. July 2016 - 08:44.

    I've tried 3 other yogurt recipes and I've found that this is by far the best and most reliable. So thick and creamy, not overly sweet. Just gorgeous..... Does it work just as reliably if when the amounts are halved? Just wondering if it affects the cultering in the thermoserver at all.

  • This is yum! I was a bit

    Submitted by wendyroo on 22. February 2016 - 10:31.

    This is yum! I was a bit worried at first wondering whether I had made it right, no need to worry it was lovely and creamy. I am trying to convert my husband from commercial yoghurt to homemade, he thinks its not sweet enough. I have noticed the longer the yoghurt is kept the more tart it becomes not sure why.I would like to freeze some yoghurt in small containers but would like to know what it is like when thawed out. I might have to make half recipe next time because it wont get eaten in a week. Also I have noticed very tiny lumps in the yoghurt almost like a grainy look if that makes sense, but it doesn't feel grainy on the tongue. Thank you for sharing this recipe I will be making it regular and maybe a bit sweeter so my husband will eat it and will use vanilla bean seeds next time.

    Hi there!  I've never added fruit until actually serving the yoghurt.  You would need plain yoghurt without the fruit for the starter I would imagine.  I've never encountered a scrambled egg consistency,  I'm wondering if that's just from stirring the whey in?  Mine is thick and creamy the whole way through.  Sorry I'm not much help to you tmrc_emoticons.(

    Submitted by van der Ploeg on 30. January 2016 - 13:45.

    Hi, I've just made your yoghurt for the very first time. I have a few questions for you..... Do you put the thermomix jug straight into the fridge (step 3) after heating the milk or do you let the milk cool first? My yoghurt looked nice and thick when I first unwrapped it from the towel. I added some frozen berries through it before chilling in the fridge. Underneath the thick top the yoghurt was runny and looked like it had a scrambled egg like texture to it. Is this normal? Have I done something wrong or will it get thicker like your photo the more yoghurt I make from the starter? Also can you use yoghurt with fruit added as a starter or does it have to be plain? My yoghurt tastes nice, I just don't like the appearance so much. Any ideas? tmrc_emoticons.)

    Hi there,  sorry the original recipe was based on using the TM31. You just need to make sure the temperature is at 37 degrees tmrc_emoticons.) once it reaches 37 degrees you are good to go, it won't over cook it as long as it doesn't go above that temperature tmrc_emoticons.)

    Submitted by jodestariordan on 27. January 2016 - 07:59.

    Hi. I have made this a few times snd has worked out everytime but can you please explain me what it means when the 37d stops flashing. The only thing that flashes on tm5 are the green lights that never stop flashing. And there is the 'C sign below the number that flashes. Ive just noticed now because i am making it that the 'C sign has stopped flashing and the temp bar has a small blue line because its been cooking for 10min. 

     

    Last time i did make this i think i over cooked the initial part because i was waiting for something to stop flashing to make sure it reached 37 but nothing did. 

     

    Thanks.

  • Hi Wendyroo, You can just use

    Submitted by Shireena on 17. August 2015 - 19:27.

    Hi Wendyroo,

    You can just use any pot set yoghurt from the supermarket as your first starter. You can buy little tubs of pot set yoghurt. Jalna is my preference, but whatever you like.  Once you have made your batch of yoghurt and it has set, scoop out your 6 tablespoons to use as your starter yoghurt for your next batch. You can keep this in the fridge or freezer (depending on how long it is between making batches). Good luck tmrc_emoticons.)

    Submitted by Boulangerie on 5. May 2015 - 06:29.

    What a lovely time saving, money saving recipe!  I hadn't attempted any thermomix yoghurt until I saw this recipe - I just didn't have the time to fuss with all the straining etc that I thought every yoghurt recipe involved.... not this one!  The perfect busy mum's recipe!  So simple, so yum!  

    I never use milk powder.  I always use light blue top milk.  And I always stir in the small amount of whey that sits on the top - no waste with a thermie!  It turns out perfect every single time.

I omitted the milk powder because I don't like the taste it gives but I still ended up with a thick creamy yoghurt. Plus I have the tm5 thermo and will now use this recipe over the automatic one!

    i made this but changed from 1500ml of milk to 1000ml and 500ml cream.

    this was the tickest creamiest yoghurt ever and delicious. 2 ltrs gone in one week!

    also if you use UHT milk from the cupbord you can avoid the first 3 steps as it is already heat treated. 

    also if you reduce your sugar and vanilla you could use it as a savory yoghurt as well... serious.. add a small amount of cumin and corriander to your yoghurt. grated carrot and cucumber and use it as a dip! just remember to squeeze out the excess water from the vegies first.

    If you use UHT milk and cream do you need to heat treat the cream first?

    Submitted by jmatacz on 14. August 2014 - 12:36.

    Hi Shireena,I took a pic of it and asked a FB page as it was considerably bubbling over - advice was to turn the speed up slightly (like with rice bubbling over) or down. I just took the MC off and put it on it's side for a while to let some steam out. I used all the right amounts as per the recipe so thought it was odd. After setting for 9.5hrs in a cold oven and wrapped in a thick blanket, the texture was beautiful and it tastes great. I have some in my 1.5L pyrex and also filled 3 pouches for my 19mo to enjoy. Thanks for sharing. I will make this again!

    I used my homemade changing habits vanilla bean paste and it tastes great and looks lovely (vanilla flecks throughout).

    I make this yoghurt with 1litre of no fat milk and 500mls of 99% fat free milk. I omit the vanilla and sweetener  and make it plain, I also leave it for 12hours before putting it into the fridge containers. I have made six batches and each one has turned out  nice and thick.

    This morning I have made a new batch adding an extra 10grams of skim milk powder and a full 200grams of  pot set yoghurt  will let you know if this makes it creamier. Either way it is a thick tasty yoghurt

    Best yoghurt I've ever made (and I've made lots - Easiyo sachet yoghurts, from scratch with powdered milk yoghurts, other Thermie yoghurt recipes, etc etc)! Already eaten heaps of this batch and it's not even properly cold yet! I used rapadura sugar and halved the recipe as we don't normally go through 1.5 kg yoghurt in a week - worked very well, so I'm definitely pleased with this one! Think I just added an extra bit of powdered milk and starter yoghurt as I love mine extra thick tmrc_emoticons.). Thanks for the awesome recipe!!
