Tonight’s yogurt is made with 1% milk. I have done this a few times and found that with a higher fat content, the yogurt comes out thicker. I told my sister this and she said “Duh!”. Guess I was supposed to know. So far I’ve done 1%, 2% and whole milk. Whole was awesome, but I am staying more on my calorie path .. so. Since the yogurt comes out runnier (almost like kefir milk), I added corn starch when the milk was hot. And I whisked that cornstarch in really good because last time I ended up with lumps in my yogurt, which was plain unappetizing. Once the milk cooled, I added in some splenda (my honey bear is nearly empty) and whisked in the yogurt. As you can see, I found some containers to help with portioning the yogurt. These are from the canning section, supposedly for making freezer jam. Now, I’m hoping that it works out right as I’ve noticed that my thermometer is about 40degrees off. I need a new thermometer I guess…. I’ll let you all know later. -the_coffeegirl
