Questions - about yogurt and pancakes...

[Guest guest]

My first question is about the yogurt. I have had it turn out thick in

the past although lately it has been turning out very thin & watery. I

have a Yogourmet and bought the lamp dimmer switch and monitored the

temperature on the last batch hoping that would help. It still turned

out very thin. Is this how it's supposed to be? Any ideas what could

account for the variation?

Any suggestions on freezing chicken and banana pancakes? How do you

keep them from sticking together or do you freeze individual servings?

Do they freeze well?

Thank you for your help!

Hi, ,

For freezing pancakes, spread out on a cookie sheet and put in

freezer. When they are frozen, transfer to a plastic freezer bag or

other container and they won't stick together.

Are you making goat milk yogurt? Was it the same kind of milk when it

turned out thick?

Yes, I use goat milk and it's from the same source I've always used.

Thank you for the suggestion about freezing pancakes!

The milk is different at different times of the year and this can be

reflected in the yogurt. It can depend on if they have just had

their 'kids' or if the kids are older; it can also depend on the type

of feed they are eating. Some people also notice a big change in

flavour too if they switch from grass fed to grain fed etc...

I usually cut some wax paper and layer between pancakes, cookies,

bread slices etc.. before wrapping in plastic wrap or freezing in

large freezer bags.

If I have baked on parchment paper, I recycle the parchment paper and

cut it in pieces to use between the layers to be frozen.

After reading some other posts I may try cooling the milk down (lower

than 100 degrees F before adding the starter. I use Progurt and I

didn't see anything written about a temperature recommendation on the

bottle.
