Homemade Yogurt

1. Put milk in glass container (like pampered chef large measuring cup). Mine takes about 1/2 a gallon. 
2. Heat in microwave for 17 min
3. Let cool on counter until 108 degrees. Wisk in any film that gets on top. 
4. Add 2 tsp plain yogurt (with live cultures) - can be from a previous batch of homemade yogurt. 
5 (optional) add 1/4 c of nonfat dried milk. Makes it thicker if you are using lower fat milk. Also adds nutrition. 
6. Stir. (keep stirring for a few min if you are using dry milk as you need to let it dissolve completely or it will sink to the bottom). 
7. Put on a lid and put it in your oven with the oven light on overnight or 6-10 hours. The longer you go, the tarter it will be. 
8. Put in into the fridge to cool. Voila. 

I like to eat it with raw/natural local honey on top with or without fresh fruit. It is better than ice cream!
