Recipe's preparation

  1. Combine milk & powdered milk and cream in TM bowl for 10 seconds speed 7

    Cook for 30 minutes 90degrees speed 3

    Place TM bowl in fridge and cool mix to 37 degrees.  This step is vital to the sucess of your yoghurt, and may take from 40 - 60 minutes.

    Return your TM bowl to the base and wait for the 37 light to go out,  the mix must be no hotter than 37 degrees

    Add 200 grams pot set yoghurt,combine 4 seconds speed 4

    Then heat for 10 minutes 37 degrees speed 3

    Warm your thermoserver with boiling water

    When cooking is complete, empty your thermomserver and carefully pour in the milk mix. Place the lid on and wrap in towel or small blanket and leave undisturbed for a minimum of 6 hours. I left mine for 10 hours, but you can leave for up to 24 hours.  The longer you leave it the thicker it gets.

    Chill before serving.  Reserve some starter for your next batch, and decant into a plastic container if you prefer.  Yoghurt stored in plastic seems to form less whey.

    Your yoghurt will last apx 3 weeks in the fridge if you are not doubling dipping, though in my house it doesn't last 3 days. YUMMMM

Tip

Your starter can be frozen, but must never be defrosted in the microwave, or you will kill the culture. Defost in the fridge.

Your yoghurt will get thicker and creamier each time you use it.

Serve with CADA, fruit, muesli

  • How Good is This Yoghurt?...

    Submitted by toni5623 on 14. December 2023 - 13:38.

    How Good is This Yoghurt?

    I found a 1.5L bottle of Paul's Farmhouse Gold (with cream on top) milk that was marked down (as it was close to its use by date).
    Decided to make Greek Yoghurt instead of ricotta and am so glad I came across this recipe.
    I used 1.5L milk, 100g full cream milk powder (didn't have skim), 120g yoghurt starter (that I had in freezer) and 90g cream. Left it in the Thermoserver for about 10 hours and this is the result!
    Thanks for a great recipe!

    Submitted by Samantharmi89 on 28. November 2022 - 12:41.

    I've made a couple of other yoghurts but haven't been a huge fan. They've been too tangy. Made this for the first time and it's really nice! Only thing is that it's runny and I'd prefer it thicker like Jalna or close to it. I did leave it to ferment for 20 hours. I did make a mistake with the yoghurt starter - I used one of the little pots of Jalna, thinking it was 220g from memory but when I took it out of the fridge I saw it was 170g. Would this have affected how thick it is? Also, I used UHT milk. Would this have affected thickness?

    Submitted by lu and thermo on 12. April 2018 - 20:49.

    I've made this numerous times and it's a great recipe! I omit the cream and only use 50g milk powder. I use my easiyo container to set the yoghurt overnight, perfect for 1 kg. For my first starter I used only 1 teaspoon of Jalna yoghurt. Then continue with 1 tsp of my own yoghurt for my next batch. I read an article that tested different amounts of starter and the least creates the creamiest yoghurt! The more starter the more chance of a grainy yoghurt. My kids much prefer mine to the Jalna (their original best) in a taste test. Perfect, creamy, thick yoghurt each time! Thanks so much for an easy, failproof recipe!

    Have now made this a couple of times and absolutely love it. It DOES get creamier each time and I leave it to set for around 12 hours or more and find it goes thicker. Occasionally put a little honey in also to give it a slightly sweeter flavour but is delicioius as is tmrc_emoticons.)

    BeesAreCool: I found this with my first batch, however the more I make it (using reserved yoghurt from my last batch) the less it tastes of powdered milk. Also have found that the longer I leave it to set the better it tastes and gets thicker also.

    Have made this yoghurt a number of times and works perfectly each time. I find it takes more than 1 hour to cool in the fridge and I leave mine set for somewhere between 18 and 24 hours. The kids demolish it with stewed fruit and cinnamon.

    This is a fabulous yoghurt and just like the one I normally buy at the supermarket. I made half the recipe as needed it to fit in an Easyio container and was the perfect amount. Left it overnight and yoghurt was lovely and thick.

    I did everything skim milk and low fat it worked great!!!!! I love this recipe and will make it over and over again, what a cost saving. To sweeten it I put some vanilla essence in the end cooking phase and after I left it over night I blitzed my fruit and added after it had cooled also 1/3 cup stevia with the fruit and whipped it with the butterfly. This worked really well!!!!

    Omg I was very nervous about making this as I have had friends who had failed with making yoghurt. All I can say is my first attempt was highly successful & it took only 6 hrs to set perfectly. I did omit the cream & added approx 1-1.5 tablespoons of sugar & so,e vanilla to the first step. I waited about an 1.5hrs for it to cool to below 37 & once cooked I wrapped in a towel & put in the oven to set away from sight! Thanks for the recipe I will no longer be buying it

    This is the best yoghurt recipe I've used. The yoghurt turned out just like the Jalna pot set one I put in to it! I cooled the mix to 37 on my bench (lid on, took a good hour). Didn't add cream. Left it 8 hrs to set, wrapped in small blanket...perfect

    This yoghurt is awesome. Have had success twice. Once with the original recipe, then again with my yoghurt starter from my first batch.  I did add sugar and vanilla though at the step.  Yum! My famoly would not eat without a little bit of sugar.

    Has anyone tried a half batch? This may be a silly question since a batch doesn't seem to last long, but winter is coming, and I do eat less yoghurt in the cold. I thought maybe a recipe where temperatures are important might not respond well to a shift in proportions?

    Yoghurt set well but had a strangely grassy flavour (maybe the milk?). Cream separated from the milk and set on top which was a little odd. Any way to enure it stays homogenised? Not sure if it was worth the time and effort.
