Hi,
Well I have just made my second batch of yogurt. First batch was smooth and creamy. This batch appears a lot thicker and lumpy (did use more skimmed milk powder though) Anyway I have strained it and the liquid that has come off it is thin, watery and yellowish. Is this normal
or is the yogurt 'off'. Dont know if this makes sense, but would be grateful for your opinions. Thanks everyone.

Sounds fine to me. How does the yogurt taste?
The liquid is great in pancakes or bread.

Yep, I agree with Pen Pen (ooh just remembered I had a dream about penguins last night
) -anyway the liquid is supposed to be like that, apparently it's very good for you, full of beneficial enzymes. Use it in baking or add to smoothies.
To avoid lumps I use a small whisk to whisk in the dried milk with the starter yogurt, then still whisking I pour in the milk.0 -

Do you think we were twins, separated at birth, reunited by a love of homemaking
Back to the OP - jess - you could just stir in the liquid - it'll be fine.

Love your sig btw, it's quite true;) 0 -
Thank you both for replies and the tips. The yogurt tastes a bit more 'tangy' than last time, but o.k. Might have a go at making some scones with the liquid see if it improves them. I never have any luck with scones.0
