We’ve started making our own yoghurt again. I’d forgotten how EASY it is to make, although previously it used to share the airing cupboard with the cats until they worked out how to get the cover off the pot. This time around we are avoiding such problems. Lakeland on George Street in Edinburgh have furnished us with a basic yoghurt heating machine, and all you do is scoop a couple of dessert spoons of good natural live yoghurt into the container, boil up full fat milk and let it cool to just under 50C, then add that to the yoghurt mixing very gently (do not whisk or beat!) and switch on the machine for 8 hours or so. Really very good. Use the last of that batch to make the new batch.

I’ve just bought one of those machines too! Will make the first batch at the weekend – is it wrong to be this excited about yogurt??
Clearly not
