Using Non-Pressure Cooking Smart Programmes
Smart Programme: Yogurt
The Yogurt Smart Programme is a non-pressure cooking function with 3 pre-set
options to allow you to make different types of fermented dairy and non-dairy
recipes.
For best results, follow a recipe when making yogurt.
If you are starting with
unpasteurised
or
pasteurised
milk, follow all the steps in
“To Make Yogurt” below.
If your milk is
ultra-pasteurised
, you may skip ahead to “Step 2 – Add Starter
Culture”. This method of yogurt making is called “cold start”.
What You’ll Need:
• Food Thermometer
• Milk or a non-dairy alternative
• Active yogurt culture
