RubyRedSox's Journal, 18 August 2011

Ok, had my yogurt. It turned out very thick and creamy, just perfect for my vanilla whey protein and with a drop or 2 of stevia was to die for.

Of course being made with a large amount of fat, the yogurt doesn't have a real "yogurty" tang flavor at all. However as I said it's rich and nutritious with all those good bugs and perfect for a little sweetener, maybe some extract or just dump in with a favorite smoothie recipe.

All in all I'm very happy with the result.

The recipe I used;;
Recipe yeilds, 7 - 7 oz servings
Cal- 206, Fat - 16.55, Carbs - 8.37, Protein 6.75


Yogurt (homemade) full fat version
Recipe to go with the Cuisine Yogurt Maker.
Ingredients

6 oz mountain high plain yogurt
8 fl oz heavy cream
30 oz milk whole
1 envelope gelatin unsweetened

Directions

In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients except yogurt. Sprinkle gelatin on top to soften.

Heat milk, uncovered, over low heat, gradually bringing it nearly to a boil. Tiny bubbles will form around the edges of the pan; the milk should reach a temperature between 185-190°F.
Remove pot from stove and cool to 95 degrees.
In a separate bowl, take a cup of the cooled milk and stir in the yogurt (6 oz or 170 grams). Stir well the mix back into the milk.
Pour mixture into the jars. Place the jars (Without the lids) into the Cuisine Yogurt. Maker and cover with the clear lid.
Push the switch button then set the timer for 8 hours.
When the yogurt is ready, turn off the unit. Be careful removing the lid. Put the white lids on the jars and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before eating.

It's great that your yogurt turned out to be such a success! It's very versatile also and you can enjoy creating yummy things with it. Thank you for sharing the recipe and your results with us. I assume you made it to your eye appointment in time. I hope all went well with that. HUGS!!!

I love creating yogurt, as well, but I've only used 2% milk and then I add 1/2 C of powdered milk to up the protein content. I then add 1/2 C of vanilla yogurt and that's it. Pretty easy. I let it sit for about 12 hours and it's pretty tangy. In fact, my kids say it's so tangy it's hard for them to eat but I could just leave it for less time if that's what I was going for. ;) Thanks for sharing!

Oh I love yogurt and actually like the tang but I can't add the extra milk because of the lactose. Too much of that sugar drives up my blood sugar. Yeah, bummer.

Rubyredsox, even if you let it ferment for a longer period of time? I've read that's the great thing about making homemade yogurt is that whereas the stores don't let it ferment very long so it's difficult to eat for people with problems with the lactose, you can let it ferment so long that the lactose will all be converted by the cultures.
