Instructions
- Pour 1 full gallon of milk into a large pot and set over medium heat uncovered.
- Place a thermometer into the milk and whisk frequently to heat it evenly and so the bottom of the pot doesn't scorch.
- Let the milk come up to 185 degrees. It NEEDS to reach this temp if you want it to work!
- Remove milk from heat and let it cool to 110-120 degrees.
- Whisk in 1/3 cup room temperature plain greek yogurt.
- Cover pot with tight lid and either wrap it well in towels or blankets or place it in a warm spot in your house. It needs to stay warm and undisturbed for 10-12 hours so the yogurt can work it's magic and turn that gallon of milk into yogurt. Cathy placed hers on her stove with the oven light on for a small heat source.
- After 10-12 hours, milk should have thickened and turned into yogurt. Pour off any excess liquid and then scoop yogurt into a cheesecloth lined strainer. Place into refrigerator until yogurt is the desired consistency you want. This will continue to remove they whey still left in the yogurt.
- Spoon yogurt into air tight containers and keep in refrigerator.
