HOMEMADE SOY YOGHURT 3 WAYS | THE HAPPY PEAR

[@persephoneus]

Honestly I didn't think it would work since I tried a dozen times with a yoghurt maker / machine. But guess what .... OMG I'M FREAKING OUT it's perfect

[@sportingwithstaffords]

Should you want to prepare this with homemade soy milk (by blending beans with water and straining them), don't discard the pulp! Soy bean pulp (okara in Japanese) is a perfect base for vegan burgers and many more recipes. Have been making our own tofu (made from soy milk) and the okara is a fantastic byproduct!

[@IrynaBoehland]

Your Comment is Very. Interesting. Can you make Tempe. From the by product. . I think. Steve was making this Yogurt an easy way for us. . Maybe he will progress to your way.

You can also make your soy yoghurt starter by putting chilli stalks in some soy milk for a few hours and letting that turn into yoghurt! Also works with lemon juice.

[@Evenmoregracelessful]

I'd cut yogurt out of my diet because of the packaging and now I'm SO PUMPED!!! Thank you!!!

[@Equinox1.5]

Only thing is, you now have an empty 1i soya milk carton and a 400ml yoghurt carton, whereas if you had bought a similar quantity of soya yoghurt you would have had two of those cartons instead. I don't see much difference, unless I'm missing something... Home-made might work out a bit cheaper, though.

[@MsCValentiner]

@@Equinox1.5 You only use one carton - the first one where you take 4 spoonfuls for your first home-made batch. After that, you save the last 4 spoonfuls of the last batch to make the next batch - and so on. All glass, you just wash it.

[@purplemonkeyelephant]

@@Equinox1.5 In theory you could buy a big bag of soya beans, make your own milk, and then keep a bit of yogurt from your last batch to keep it running. I've seen videos where people do this. The amount of packaging for beans will be hugely reduced compared to store milks

[@romero6062]

Hi! defo gonna try this recipe. I got one question though... Once I make yogurt with this recipe can I keep using it as mother culture or should I use store bought every time ¿? Sorry for my english, it's not my first language.

[@Yzyxdolorza]

You can (and should!) use the yogurt you made. I made my first batch with a dry culture I bought online (plain soy yogurt is hard to find in the US) and have been using the previous yogurt to make the next one for about a year... and still going! I think it actually gets better as it adapts to your environment. I do use a yogurt maker instead of letting it sit out but otherwise same method, no boiling and all that jazz like for bovine breast milk.

I tried it, very skeptically, not thinking for a moment that it would really work. I've made loads of soy yoghurt in my yoghurt maker but never really liked it all that much. I wanted a better taste. It was rather cool here at the time so I left it 3 days (I did use dairy yogurt as a starter) ! OMG it's amazing. It definitely thinner but it's so delicious I just want to keep eating it. . . I mixed cacao in half of it. Yummo ! Thanks so much Happy Pear

[@AgnieszkaWiktor]

Hi Steve- tell me please - how long can I store ready yogurt in the fridge?

[@evileyelash8094]

As long as you store it in a sterile container with a fitted lid in the coldest part of your fridge, it should last you at least 5 days or longer (depending on the coldness and cleanliness of your fridge). The way you know it's gone bad is when you see mold, otherwise it should be fine.

[@karlint39]

Very VERY easy to follow. Thanks! Three general questions about making yogurt. 1) For soy yogurt, is it important to sterilize the container and utensils? Is it important or not really? 2) Some yogurts I've made explode if I close the lid completely. I have to leave it open a bit to let presumably CO2 gas out. In this video it looks like you didn't leave the lid open. No problems? 3) 15C seems like a really low temperature for making yogurt! My yogurt maker's default setting is 42C for 8 hours, and when I make kefir, I leave it at room temperature (perhaps 20C at this time of year?) for 2 days. Do you specifically recommend NOT using a yogurt maker and high temperature, or is your point that it works at any temperature? 4) (There are always 4 books in a trilogy) Have you ever tried straining this and making it into "Greek soy yogurt"? I've been making yogurt and kefir with milk, but I'd like to get away from using dairy, so this will be great, and I'm glad to see it is so easy. Because I have specific strains of bacteria that I want to use, I'll start with a small amount of "regular dairy" yogurt, but the dairy content will become basically zero after the second batch. Thanks again for the video!

[@graemechidgey2778]

Great Recipe, can this be done with any other plant based milk?

[@calystoXXVII]

I was wondering the same as I'm not a big fan of soy milk. I prefer rice or oat.

[@bridgetcarr1236]

I've never seen rice or oat yogurt , you need the same culture, like real dairy milk needs natural yogurt to make new yogurt

[@mattt8635]

I use an instant pot to help the process, but I know soy and coconut work. Soy is great for protein, coconut turns out thicker but is fat based. I have tried almond milk, didn't work as I think that is much more watery and not enough substance for the culture to eat. Don't know about the others. If the rice milk or oat is a thicker milk with calories for the culture to eat, I think it would work. You can just but 1 yogurt from the beginning, and then use your own culture to make more. I eat yogurt everyday, and I haven't had to buy mine in years! (plus healthier, cheaper, and save on packaging!

[@evileyelash8094]

@@ThuLe-eh1xe I’m sorry about that,but I don’t know. The video says that some may need up to 3 days - it also says to leave it to sit longer if it doesn’t taste as acidic as you want. However, I’ve recently discovered that some vegan yogurts are not always made with probiotics.

[@ThuLe-eh1xe]

@@evileyelash8094 on the vegan yogurt box, it says live active culture. Do you think the company do not put enough probiotic in the product? May be I try probiotic pills. What brand do you recommend ? Thank you.

[@evileyelash8094]

@@ThuLe-eh1xe I think the use of the suggested amount of yogurt in the video is good and the bacteria should multiply as it sits. You might try it with an extra tablespoon of yogurt if you think it wasn’t potent enough. They said to let it sit from 24 hours (1 day) to 72 hours (3 days). They also mentioned to let it sit longer if it doesn’t taste acidic enough and you mentioned that your yogurt didn’t taste acidic enough after sitting for just 20 hours. Why not try letting it sit for longer and see if it develops a more tangy taste? If you want to buy probiotics, I really don’t know which are best, but you might ask the seller if the types they sell work with plant-based ingredients. There are special yogurt starter mixes specifically formulated for use with plant-based milks. Good luck 😊

So first of all I've heard that metallic kills the bacteria so you shouldn't use metal spoons, but it looked like you used one? And second, in another video for homemade soyghurt I was told to put on a breathable kitchen towel on top, but you just put on the lid?

Hey! Would it also be possible using for example almond/oats or rice milk and then use the soy joghurt as culture?

[@evileyelash8094]

Almond and nut milks for sure - I'm not sure about the other milks due to their having lower protein and sugar levels, but why not try it out?

Or should I buy plain soy yogurt and do all the steps like described and add the strawberry mixture in the end? Also, does this contain the "healthy" yogurt cultures a regular yogurt would contain?

I love the idea of home made soy yogurt from an environmental stance, but the thing I'm concerned about is that it's not fortified. The soy yogurt from the store has added calcium and B12, and while I supplement B12 anyway so that's not really a problem, I'm mostly worried about the calcium. Is there a way to make the yogurt calcium fortified? :) (Yes, I know you can get calcium from other foods like tofu, leafy greens and such, but let's be real - those are small amounts and I like the easy of being on the safe side because I get a head start of 30% at breakfast) OK, wait. I just realized that if you make it from fortified soy milk, the yogurt will be fortified too 😂. But my question remains for those of us making soy milk from scratch too! Also, is it possible to make it from other types of plant based milk too, like oat? Or would that not work?
