  • Chefalicious.... It is

    Chefalicious.... It is generally a more runnier yoghurt than dairy yoghurt.  The only way I have been able to thicken it is by using the agar agar & tapioca flour.  Perhaps adding guar gum (like commercial yoghurt makers) may thicken it more tmrc_emoticons.~

  • HI I am making my second

    Submitted by tammyrt on 24. October 2011 - 13:12.

    HI I am making my second batch as we speak.  The first time I made it I added a little extra arrowroot as I didn't have any agar agar.  It definitely thickens with more time but still really only came out with the consistency of a nice thick cream.  With this batch I have the agar agar so have added that and still a bit extra arrowroot I also 'cooked' it for about 7 minutes at 80 degrees so it thickened a bit more.  I'll let you know how it works out!

  • Hi, I have made this twice.

    Submitted by chefalicious on 27. September 2011 - 22:00.

    Hi, I have made this twice. The first time it hardly set at all - only slightly thicker than water - I think though that I thinned out the coconut milk too much - I was trying to get it to go furhter. So the second time I made it, I followed the recipe exactly - after 10 hours there definitely was a thicker layer at the top - probably about a 1/2 cm. - underneath that was still very thin. After it had been in the fridge a further day it was again the top layer that was slightly thicker - when I mixed it up it was still a pouring texture - is this as thick as it gets. I was expecting to be able to spoon it out - like a thick custard? What am I doing wrong? How can I make it thicker or is that not what I should be expecting? Thanks for any comments.
