I have been trying to perfect my yogurt recipe but I can't seem to get the texture spot on (it's a little grainy) but the flavor is close. There is a Greek market somewhat close to me (though it used to be much closer before I moved) that just RUINS you for any other yogurt. Seriously, this stuff is magical. Thick (almost like labne) and super tangy. I've been trying to duplicate the recipe so I don't have to travel quite so far to get my fix. Thank you for sharing your method here.
Mmm that sounds so good. There’s a local yogurt made by a farm near me that I love the tanginess of but its texture is a little too loose for my liking, but when strained it makes a great labne. I think texture and tang are such a balance worth trying hundreds of batches to achieve, not unlike the perfect crusty sourdough with big holes and great flavor and crumb.
Just lovely—I appreciate the encouragement. This spring marks my first attempts at making yogurt at home as well. With 4 children, the plastic cartons were getting excessive! It’s so nice to just be working in glass now. We are on our 5th batch since I started!
