making yogurt in a ...THERMOS??

[Guest guest]

wow, Tas', what t great idea! I'm always amazed at the stuff some people

come up with...was that your own idea?

For the yoghurt, you can just use a thermos (insulated flask). Warm the

flask by having hot water in it while you warm the milk to body

temperature - I don't even use a thermometer. Then mix a couple of

tablespoons of plain yoghurt with the warm milk and pour it into the

(empty) thermos, seal tightly and leave overnight. If it's not thick

enough when you open it, you can leave it another hour or two and warm

the milk a tiny bit more next time. If it's 'overcooked' and separated,

you can strain it through a cloth to use it as cream cheese and make it a

bit cooler next time or not leave it as long. It doesn't take many tries

to get it just right.

Cheers,

Tas'.
