Homemade Nonfat Yogurt
- 1 quart skim milk
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup noninstant nonfat dry milk (optional)
- 3 to 4 tablespoons plain yogurt with active cultures
- In a pan, scald the milk but do not boil.
- Cool it to lukewarm (105 to 115 degrees).
- Add the dry milk to the lukewarm milk and mix well.
- Thoroughly stir in the yogurt.
- Place mixture in wide-mouth thermos bottles or in warmed quart jars or earthenware bowls.
- Cover and place mixture in a warm oven, or near a pilot light at the top of a stove where it will stay at 90 to 115 degrees.
- Leave for about six hours or until it is thick.
- Do not disturb the yogurt while it incubates.
- The longer it incubates the more tart it will be.
- If the whey separates, just stir it back in.
- Yogurt will keep for two weeks in the refrigerator.
