Vanilla Soygurt
- 4 cups Vanilla Soy Milk
- 1/2 cups Instant Non-fat Dry Milk Powder
- 1/2 cups Plain Yogurt (with Live Cultures) Or Soygurt From A Previous Batch
- 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract (optional)
- 1.
- In a saucepan, combine the soy milk and dry milk (this really boosts the calcium content of the yogurt) and heat over medium heat, stirring frequently to just below the boiling point.
- Remove the milk from the heat and allow to cool until lukewarm (about 100 F).
- To cool the milk quickly, place the saucepan into the refrigerator or in a sink filled with cold water.
- Make sure to stir occasionally to cool it evenly.
- This takes about 20 minutes.
- 2.
- Preheat the yogurt makers heating base.
- 3.
- Add plain yogurt to the warm soy milk, stirring gently to blend.
- Do not beat or whip.
- Add the vanilla extract and blend thoroughly.
- Pour the mixture into the yogurt container(s), secure the lid(s) and place the covered container(s) into the preheated base.
- Cover the yogurt maker and let it work its magic undisturbed for 4-10 hours, depending on the manufacturers instructions and depending on the tartness desired.
- The yogurt should be partially set after processing and will thicken further in the refrigerator.
- I always let mine process the full 10 hours.
- 4.
- After processing, unplug the cord from the outlet.
- Remove the cover and lift the covered yogurt container(s) out of the heating base.
- Place the container(s) in the refrigerator and chill at least two hours to thicken.
- If desired, remove 1/2 cup of the yogurt to use as a starter for future batches, before adding any fruit or flavoring.
- Keep yogurt refrigerated until ready to use.
