I can't believe yogurt came out so incredibly delicious! Look how thick it looks. This yogurt maker has not fail me yet and believe me I have tried other brands out there! Not to mentioned any names. I'm just here to tell you the positive about my experience with this particular brand - The Flexzion - for those eat yogurt regularly or everyday like myself to keep things moving if you know what I mean lol.
I don't buy non dairy store brand yogurt anymore because I can do without the extra added sugar and who knows what else is added to the mix. I use cultures for health starter cultures and organic, no additives added soy milk. Believe me when I tell you that whatever non dairy milk you choose to use, be sure that it is organic with no additives added for the yogurt to set perfectly, trust me on this one, I've tried them all so you wont have to waste your money! I like my yogurt thick like custard consistency. Scroll down to the bottom for the perfect Greek Yogurt Recipe and where I buy my products.
I added my own flavors. Yogurt not strained yet.
I use these veggie strainer bags to make Greek Yogurt
Either a regular thermometer or digital will do
Non Dairy Greek Yogurt Recipe
4 cups westsoy organic - no additive milk
2 Tbsp pure can sugar
1 packet of cultures for health
1 thermometer
The yogurt jars (I use a 4 cup heavy microwavable bowl)
Instructions
Wash and sterilize everything!
place organic non dairy milk into a 4 cup glass bowl. Place the bowl into the microwave, turned on for 4 minutes. Remove the bowl and place the thermometer inside the milk bowl, make sure the milk temperature reaches 110 degrees. If the milk is to hot let it cool naturally with the thermometer measuring its temperature, until it cools down to 110 and no cooler.
Once the milk reaches 110 degrees add one packet of the culture. Stir once and place the bowl or pure the milk into the glass jars and place them into the yogurt maker with the top on. Turn on the yogurt maker for 8 hours. this yogurt maker I purchased doesn't have a timer. The one with the timer cost a little more but I set the timer on my phone to alert me to turn off the yogurt maker. Set the bowl aside and let the yogurt cool for 2 hours then place it in the refrigerator until it is cool.
Greek Yogurt instructions
Use a strainer and place it on top of a glass bowl that's deep enough to hold the whey liquid from the yogurt. Use a clean veggie strainer cloth bag and place all the yogurt inside of it. Place the bag strainer that's on the bowl and fold over the remaining cloth of the veggie bag. Place it in the refrigerator overnight. I collect at least 3 to 4 cups of whey. The next day or you can take the yogurt out or sooner than that depending on the consistency you like your yogurt. scoop out the yogurt from the veggie bag and place it in a bowl. add Agave Nectar to your sweetness and use a hand mixer to whip the yogurt to a smooth consistency.
Notes: Before adding the Agave Nectar, scoop out 1/4 of the plan yogurt and place it in an airtight container. This will be your starter whenever you want to make more yogurt.
Instructions for second batch of yogurt from your last batch of homemade yogurt
Pour 4 cups of non dairy soy milk into a sterile, 4 cup heavy glass bowl. Warm the milk. After the milk
has cool to 110 degrees, add 1/2 cup of yogurt starter and 1 Tbsp of pure cane sugar into the bowl of milk stirring once. Place the bowl or yogurt jars into the yogurt maker for 8 hrs. Let the yogurt cool for 2 hours room temperature. Place the yogurt in the refrigerator. The 1st photo with the strawberries and bananas that's shown on this page is my 4th batch and I've noticed that the yogurt consistency gets thicker from every batch. YOU'LL NEVER BUY STORE BRAND NON-DAIRY YOGURT AGAIN!
wallah!
