Re: forgot to turn yogurt maker on`

Ellen,I am going to make some huge assumptions, so bear with me. In India, they make yogurt by our same method only they just leave it in a warm place for around 5 hours or so. Some people like it more sour, so it is left for up to a couple of days I believe. Typically, in the past, yogurt was made this way--left at room temperature. It was their way of preserving the milk without refrigeration. Having said all that, I would hazard a guess that the milk should be fine, although it might be a tad more sour. If you are brave, you could try it, otherwise, you might use it to make quiche!AmeliaHusband UC 9 years, SCD 20 monthsLDN 3 mgTo: BTVC-SCD Sent: Thu, February 18, 2010 2:43:14 AMSubject: forgot to turn yogurt maker on`

Surely I've read this answer more than once on here, but the search function isn't showing it to me.....

I made two containers of milk for yogurt yesterday. Both got heated and properly cooled. One got the starter in and went into the yogourmet just fine. Yogourmet got plugged i. The other one got starter in, put into the yogourmet, and then I evidently saw the chord for the coffee maker (also white) and thought I had plugged that maker on too.

Sooo, if milk is covered from, say, 2 p.m. and sits unheated overnight, smells fine the next morning, and *then* cooks for 24 hours, am I asking for trouble to use it?! Do you think if it smells okay it is okay?

Thanks for the help!

Thank you, Amelia! That makes sense to me. I also figured that milk is one of

those foods where it's truly easy to tell if it's " off " , and, now that my yogurt

is done cooking, it still smells fine. The final point is that this yogurt is

for me (I make dd's w. whole milk and have started making 1% for myself to eat

for breakfast), so if something is terribly wrong with it, at least the person

with IBD won't be eating it!

Thanks again,

Ellen
