Creamy Homemade Yogurt

Updated: Sep 5, 2020


One of the options when having breakfast at Eco-Logic Thailand is our homemade yogurt. We make it ourselves - of course - because yogurt in Thailand is usually very sweet and only available in small one portion cups. This yogurt recipe uses cow milk, but you can make it vegan by changing the milk by any plant based option, and the yogurt to start it, by a plant based one. Because we always have a great temperature here (tropics!), we can make this yogurt just overnight, covered with a towel. You might have to consider to create a warmer spot in your kitchen if you do not have these daily temperatures. By using an ice cooler and warm water for example.
