How to make yogurt culture/starter at home-- Cooking A Dream





Ingredients:
whole milk
lemon or fresh chilli


Method:
  • boil the milk and cool it down 
  • pour in a small bowl, add chilli with stem or 
  • cut one side of lemon and dip in the milk
  • do not squeeze the lemon juice out
  • half cover the bowl
  • leave it in a warm place until thickens (15-20 hours)
this is the primary culture. you can use 1tsp culture per 1/2cup of milk to make secondary culture.
the secondery culture you can use to make actual yogurt.


Notes:
* Don't cover the bowl completely, keep a little opening so that the bacteria in the air can go in.

*although mine took three days to achieve the perfect yogurt, yours could take more because this is natural bacteria from the air causing the progress, It depends on how much bacteria present in the environment and the supportive weather, so the time limit may vary.

*use a small amount of milk until you get the right taste so that you don't waste a lot of milk.

      the milk wont spoil, when milk is left out it sours and curdles. but that's because the chili or lemon defensive mechanisms prevent it from spoiling because they Kill bad bacteria. the good bacteria forms in this process from the milk curdling, i hope you get your answer

    Hello, I just wanted to ask, since you have used chilli and lemon can I use other flavors like strawberry, orange etc,
    And does the culture really have all the bacteria it is supposed to have to turn the milk into yogurt?
    And what if the milk spoils?
    And can we color the culture with food coloring?
    Thank you, hope you respond

      the chili and the lemon I believe is just to help culture the milk.
      when actually making the yoghurt with the cultured milk, it is best done as a plain yoghurt and to add flavours and colours once the yoghurt has set and cooled (ready to eat)
      the milk should not spoil if kept at the right temperatures (the chili and the lemon i think also help prevent the growth of "bad" bacteria and encourage the "good" bacteria
