Sweet Vietnamese Yogurt Recipes

VIETNAMESE YOGURT RECIPE

Steps:

• Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a bowl and add the hot water. Whisk until homogeneous. Pour milk into bowl and mix, then add yogurt and gently whisk until everything is smooth.
• Pour the mixture into the containers you will store it in. (Small plastic containers, recycled baby food jars, small canning jars, etc...)
• In a wide bottomed pot that is taller than your yogurt containers, make a bath for the containers: Heat up enough water to a near boil that it will come most of the way up the sides of your yogurt containers when they are immersed in the bath. In another pot or tea kettle, heat up additional water.
• After water is hot, turn off heat and place filled yogurt containers into bath. Pour in additional water until water level reaches nearly the top of yogurt containers. (Hint: Use a funnel to pour the water into the pot so no water splashes into the yogurt containers.)
• Place a towel over pot, being careful not to let it droop into yogurt containers and let yogurt set in the water bath. After the water has cooled completely (@ 4-5 hrs total bathing time) the yogurt should be fairly set (it will thicken a bit more when refrigerated, but not much.) Remove from bath, put lids on jars and store in fridge until ready to serve.

• Add enough water to come slghtly above the yogurt line of the containers.

EASY HOMEMADE YOGURT

Steps:

• Pour the milk into a pot and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Reduce heat and simmer, about 10 minutes; do not let it boil over.
• Remove pot from heat and allow to sit for 30 to 60 minutes. Dip your finger into the milk every once in a while to determine when you can leave your finger in the milk for 10 to 15 seconds without burning. Pour in the yogurt; there is no need to stir.
• Put the lid on the pot and carefully wrap a blanket around it. Place the wrapped pot in a slightly warm place where it will be undisturbed for 6 to 10 hours; overnight is best. Transfer to the refrigerator to allow the yogurt to continue to thicken.
