How to Make the Recipe

Making Iogurte na Garrafa Térmica is a breeze! Here’s how to do it:

1. Start by heating the milk in a saucepan over medium heat until it reaches about 180°F (82°C). This helps to kill any unwanted bacteria.
2. Remove the milk from heat and let it cool down to about 110°F (43°C).
3. In a separate bowl, mix the plain yogurt with a little bit of the warm milk until smooth.
4. Once the milk has cooled, stir in the yogurt mixture and sugar (if using).
5. Pour the mixture into your thermal bottle or thermos, seal it tightly, and wrap it in a towel to keep it warm.
6. Let it sit undisturbed for about 6-8 hours or overnight for a thicker consistency.
7. After the time is up, refrigerate your yogurt for a few hours before serving.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some tips to ensure your yogurt turns out perfectly:

• Use high-quality milk for the best flavor and texture.
• Make sure your yogurt contains live cultures for successful fermentation.
• If you prefer a sweeter yogurt, feel free to add honey or fruit after it’s made.
• Experiment with different flavors by adding vanilla extract or fruit puree before serving.
• For a fun twist, try using your homemade yogurt in creamy garlic pasta dishes!
