Sharron gave a very straightforward one sometime ago but I can't find it to nudge, I tried it and it worked very well, and now I've lost the recipe. |

Fill your vacuum flask almost full with milk, leaving space for about two tablespoonsful of yogurt. |

Back in the early 70's, I was given a piece of a yoghurt plant. You put tihis in full fat milk, and left in a fairly warm ( def. not a cold place) place overnight. Worked every time. I never used sugar in yoghurt, still don't. Had that 'plant' for many years, but is disappeared somehow. I advertised in a local newspaper for one ( have never seen one in a garden center) had one response from a woman who gave it to me for free.. I did exactly the same with this 'plant', but, the yoghurt was def. nowhere as nice as the first one. Am going to try the other way, i.e.using part yoghurt & full fat milk etc.It is well worth trying again. |

Yoghurt plant? googled but they seemed baffled - but took me to mumsnet where they seem to have heard of them but no suggestions about how to find one! |

The yoghurt spent the night in the fridge. |

Elizabeth with numbers.I was given this ' plant',,it looked like white-coloured brains.Sounds delicious,doesn't it? It could be used for ever, so to speak. Don't know if it is possible to get this anywhere now, you can get so,many different types of yoghurt in the shops, reckon most people can't be bothered to fiddle around with doing this. Btw, I live in Holland, maybe this 'plant' wasn't available in the UK? |

Run it through a muslin overnight and you have a soft cheese. |

I don't have any muslin. No fabric shops here. |

Muslin. I buy packets from the baby department of Saints...y, very useful as allround kitchen cloths though I haven't used them for straining food yet! |

The lumpy yoghurt is now sitting in the fridge..... inside a scalded hanky (a never used one) in a sieve, over a bowl. |

I found I had much better results when I thoroughly whisked the yogurt into the milk before I put it into the flask rather than just drop a dollop in. |

I don't have any yoghurt, other than the stuff which is now turning into cheese. |

Sharron | Report | 7 Dec 2014 03:13 |
Just buy a pot of plain yoghurt and use a dollop of that. |
