How To Make Your Own Yogurt With 2 Ingredients 

Fastest way to end a date: “Instead of frozen yogurt we can just go to my place for some of my fermented nut milk,”

My Mom does this all the time although she doesn't use a thermometer. She just had the mastery to do it freehand. Respect

We do this twice a day in most Indian households, and without any equipment. We save a bit from every batch to make the next one and the cycle continues for years, the same starter often passing down through generations to give you heirloom yogurt haha. No meal is complete without a some cool yogurt at the end :)

How to make yogurt: Ingredients- milk, YOGURT Edit: I know how to make yogurt. This is just a joke, so please stop telling me how to make yogurt in the replies.

No shit but this channel is the reason why I will make all my stuff at home... In the future - already procrastinating :)

More look like : how to multiple your yoghurt with only milk.

I suffer from anxiety, currently going through a hard time... and I have been watching this channel don't know why (I don't cook haha), there's something about it, it seems made with such love and care. it makes me smile. thank you :)

"I always buy expensive ass food, because I love the label" it feels like I'm listening to my reflection in the mirror speak during my self talk sesh.

I'm Indian and this is how simply we do it: • Coat a glass or porcelain bowl with a spoonful of yogurt. • Then pour lukewarm milk on it from a little height so that it bubbles up. • Just cover the bowl with a heavy plate or something. • Let it sit still for like 6 hours in room temperature(or somewhere warmer). Be sure not to disturb it. • And voila! Your homemade yoghurt is done.

Hi Joshua, I really love your videos and it is a pleasure getting inspired by your recipes. But this time (as a child of a greek mother) I really hate but need to correct you: If you want to make Greek yogurt you need another starter. The skyr you used in your video will produce skyr. Of course you can strain it and get something similar to Greek yogurt but it won't be the real deal. For real Greek yogurt you'll need a starter with lactobacillus bulgaricus and a higher fat content in your milk (about 10%, I use cream to set it up) It will be firmer on its own, because the lactobacillus bulgaricus produces a more sour and firmer yogurt, and does not need straining. Sorry, I hope my English is not too bad and understandable. Greetings Alex

nice! i've never bothered measuring my temperatures.... bring to a simmer; let cool to room temp; mix in yoghurt; pour in containers; and let sit in oven with light on for 8-12 hours. never failed...

Josh, I love your videos!! I watch them before I go to sleep at night to relax - I love cooking, and watching you make gorgeous food is truly inspirational for my tiny college-student culinary repertoire.

I love homemade yogurt! The smell when it is fermenting is heavenly! So good, so easy!

I am a baking and pastry arts student on my last semester. This channel has me inspired🥰, I've been cooking since I was 5, I am now 30, and I just love making my own stuff. My kids and I love yogurt, I can't wait to make some for them! P.S I just saw your croissant video, you're fantastic!

Love your videos! I drool with every B-roll. I've been making my own yogurt for the past month. We have two kids and consume a lot! This has saved us money and stops us from creating so much garbage. Keep up the great work!

If you use ultra pasteurized milk, you can just heat it to 115°F and add your starter. The 180°F is to pasteurize milk that isn't ultra pasteurized. Plant-based milks won't work with this recipe. They require gelatin or agar agar to set up.

Honestly you’re killing it with the videos. Love them!

Bloody hell dude! You are churning out the videos this week!

So glad I found your channel - love all your content. Thanks for making all the recipes so approachable! :)

Hey Josh thanks for the video’s. They are well done and entertaining. Also you give legit measurements so we can stay safe. I make most of all my fermentation things from your videos and I even have combined flavor ideas from one and mended it to another recipe. I will be making this yogurt today and I am infusing a simple honey. And again, thank you.

Haven't eaten anything in 15 days because I've been sick and now I'm going to get yogurt. Thanks dude

My boyfriend and I saw you tonight near Alamo Drafthouse S Lamar. I was to shy to say hi, just say hi here! Haha

Seriously love this guy. I made your potstickers this week. The dough was so easy and made all the difference in the final product.

Your content is gold. Can't believe I didn't find this channel earier👌🏽

Im 100% sure your channel is going to blow up and I cant wait :)

I’ve made yogurt with coconut milk (from a can) and it worked out very well!

Binge watching your videos since last 2 days! I just love your videos.

man I love these videos. i’ve gotten way healthier by fermenting and cooking my own delicious foods. thank you 🙏🏻❤️

My mother makes curd every alternative day tastes amazing.

Right before you went into the video, you said "its fermentation friday" and my husband was like "yogurt is fermentation? What is yogurt?" Then you started the video with "we all know what yogurt is, so I'll move on"... lol

This is so cool. I’m totally the same in the regard of taking pride in making things myself. I’ll try this, thanks for sharing!

This came out amazing! I never knew it was so easy. Thanks for sharing.

How to make homemade yogurt: Milk, and store-bought yogurt... Nani?

I gotta try this out I’m tired of buying pretty label yogurt

Omg this looks amazing, can't wait to try this myself! Thanks for the recipe josh :)

Been doing this for years now. I learned it from my grandmother and my mother. We buy fresh organic milk from the farmer's market every week and make yogurt in a huge jar. I eat it every morning with some oatmeal and Honey. I decided that this year I'll learn bread baking. Thanks to your videos I'm able to learn it.

I love making my own yogurt!! I do admit Skyr yogurt is one of my favorites especially the coconut one.

Cool video, thanks for highlighting the joy of homemade yogurt! I've been making it for probably 5 years or more, and I really appreciate the comment about UHT milk being a-OK for yogurt. Maybe it's bad for making certain kinds of cheese, but for yogurt, the milk quality is the only important factor, as you said. I do have a couple of suggested tweaks that have made my yogurt habit even less time consuming over the years, in case anyone else is interested: 1. Put the cold milk in jars and microwave it for 30 minutes. You will have to use a low, low power setting (30-40%) on your microwave, but this will gently heat the milk to 180F without any need to stir it regularly. There's no pot to clean up at the end, literally no mess at all. You can cut your active time down to 5-10 minutes, especially once you get to know your microwave (at the end, you have to check the milk temp and put it back in for shorter periods in the microwave till you hit 180F). You have to be careful the first few times to make sure it's not heating too fast or too slow, and note that the microwave heats at very different rates depending on how much milk you're scalding, so if you change the amount you heat, you're going to have to adjust the power level accordingly. 2. Use an immersion circulator to cool and incubate the yogurt. This is just another option as an alternative to the proofing chamber, but it has one big advantage in that you can also use it to cool the scalded milk quickly. It's not as fast as an ice bath, but it's many times faster than letting it air cool (takes 8-10 minutes in my experience), and when it's done you just stir in the yogurt to each jar, make sure the circulator is at 110F, and leave it. 3. Get a reusable yogurt starter from Cultures for Health. Buying store-bought yogurt works great, but you can't reuse it. By the second or third reuse, the yogurt invariably begins to taste "off" and usually also change its texture for the worst. An 'heirloom" starter gets BETTER with reuse (at first, then it evens out and becomes totally consistent), so you never have to buy yogurt at the store at all, just the milk.

You have an awesome and under-appreciated channel. Great job.

Absolutely an amazing guy with so many great skills to "pass on". From the hills of NW PA :)

When I worked at Starbucks, I called them "alternative milks"

“I used to yogurt to make the yogurt”

This man is so talented and yet so chill

I started making yoghurt about a year ago, love that I can make super thick Greek style which usually costs a tonne to buy. Plus I save the strained whey to use when I bake bread!

“Making yogurt from scratch”. *uses yogurt in the recipe*

Cool video! What would I need to do/get to avoid having to use the starter yoghurt?

I love making my own yogurt!! I use fair life whole milk, it works great! I use my instant pot tho. I just mix it together and press the yogurt button and wait!

finished watching all your vids and now i dont know what to do with life. wish i found your channel later so i'd have more to watch! KEEP IT COMING you're absolutely amazing 🔥🔥

One of these days josh is going to ferment himself and have his gf put him for display in a museum dedicated to fermentation.

Dude, your food is more attractive looking than me

I just love making yogurt at home. This recipe is wonderful and I can have cheap and great quality greek yogurt with this method. I love it! Thanks Josh! :)

Ive only watched 2 videos and buddy, you just got yourself another subscriber , thank you for being a good cook 😌

I love coconut milk yogurt -though it’s typically three times the price of regular yogurt!! I wanna try and make it myself ☺️

Can you make a "how to shoot cooking videos?" love your style Thanks this recipe. I'm waiting my yogurt.

If you use jars you can also use a sous vide water circulator to keep the temperature constant. The shape and dimension of the container it is fermented in tends to change the texture alot. Try using shallow containers and deep containers depending on use.

Love this simple recipe. Made honey and vanilla seeds with low fat milk worked well.. Thanks for sharing!!!!!!!

After your yogurt is made, could you then use a scoop of your homemade yogurt as the "starter" for your next batch?

Nut milk is the milk of choice during a quarantine and chill.

your recepies are not only takes more complex ingredient, unless some other videos/channels where they don't go "complex", but you film it the way it's so desireable to watch.

Joshua I absolutely love your videos thank you for making them so easy and real ❤❤❤🇬🇹💋💋💋

how to make yogurt > step 1: start by adding yogurt....... nice one

“I used the yogurt to make the yogurt”

Thanks for the video. This was the nudge I needed to get to trying the yogurt making function in my Instapot.

Discovered you yesterday. Love you my dude! it was an instant sub for me!

That is what we call in arabic : Labne

Idk I'm not weirded out by "Nut milk" maybe cuz I personally like nuts ....😉 lol and you know its just calling it what it is. Well, really if we wanted to be technical it's not milk it's more like juice, but "Nut juice" is yea "now ya crossing over the line, ya nasty!"

this stuff is the truth! thanks so much for the great lessons andd laughs.

omg yesterday i was looking for a video like this and today he posted this, mind blown 🤯

Still waiting for josh's cookbook

How to make Yogurt? Step 1: Add store-bought yogurt to milk... Jk. I love this recipe.

I use my sous vide circulator and mason jars, even less active time, and the temp is always perfect.

I bought that Brod and Taylor proofer (for sourdough and other yeast products) based on your recommendation - and now will use for yogurt.... I absolutely love it! So nice to have a controlled environment along with that little water tray for humidity!

You don't like the phrase of "nut milk" in your mouth.🤔 Anyways when can you add a vanilla bean? Do you have to wait until the finished product or can you slip it in during the 6 hour wait? 😮 I'M SO SORRY! I just used "slip it in" and "nut milk in your mouth" in the same post 🤐. 😎🤗🤗😎

How to make homemade yogurt Step one :get store bought yogurt

This is awesome! I am so trying this.

Loving the fermentation Friday’s 🥰 just binge-watched them! Could you please do a sauerkraut demo 😋 thank you!!

Lol you could call it plant based milk or yogurt 😂 Coyo coconut yogurt is the best Greek style non dairy ever...but expensive.

l love you bro but not as much as that b-roll

My mother does this all the time and its great

Your videos are my absolute fave.

“Heavenly Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen

Looks so good!! 😍

Nice video as always. I use just one tablespoon of yogurt to seed two quarts of whole milk. Then I drain the yogurt for 4-6 hours to get true greek yogurt texture. I have been using my instant pot yogurt feature to heat the milk to 180 F and then again to hold at about 112 F for 8 hours.

Perfect job!

Yeah in my greek household we make our tzatziki from scratch. End up with stockings of yoghurt draining in the fridge over a strainer over a bowl, haha. Homemade yoghurt is the best, you should all give it a try. Amazing recipe Joshua!

one of your coolest videos!

Where have you been all my life! I love you videos!

Love your videos first saw you on Facebook great job

Sous vide is also a great option for yogurt making. And for Greek yogurt without straining, use half and half instead of milk -- comes out at Greek yogurt thickness as soon as fermentation is done.

Made this last night. Turned out perfect. When my 21 yo daughter smelled it today, she said, "It smells just like yogourt" lol. She was shocked. Thanks for a simple video that makes the perfect yogourt. I used the oven light on method, for 12 hours.

This is helping. My town only had UHT milk.

I'm from India and it's very common here to make yogurt by adding lemon juice to milk. Usually two tablespoons of juice to one litre of milk. We leave it on the kitchen counter and by morning you get yogurt. it's warm where I live so fermentation isn't a problem.

We always make our own yogurt thanks for the tips.

I have been doing mine for years with 1L of whole milk and a 125g plain yogurt: I boild half of the milk, add plain yogurt to cold other half of the milk then mix slowly the boiled milk and stir until yogurt does not show any longer. I place it under a blanket until it sets (usualy overnight) and then in the fridge. Delicious and so simple!

I just love fermentation friday!!

Just here to say that i was looking for a yogurt recipe...saw many videos and all were bad...then i remembered that joshua had made such video....i thus appreciate the quality of your content so much now

I love your vids, Josh!! Although, a lot of your ingredients are hard to come by, considering i have a lower salary. But i love your passion and technique. I will not stop watching and supporting. Get it, dude. Keep it up!!
