Yaourt de soja maison – Végétalise-toi !

I live in the country and the first store I hope to find soy yogurt must be a 50km round trip.

therefore, Homemade soy yogurt, well, that makes sense.

What I also like about homemade is the price.

Because the current price of natural soy yogurt is between 3 and 6 euros per kilogram. And my homemade yogurt only costs 1 to 2 euros per kilogram.

so In terms of savings, this is pretty good.

Then you’ll find that it’s easy to do.

Come on, I’ll explain everything to you so you can make homemade soy yogurt every time!

Soy yogurt making equipment

if you have Thermometer and yogurt makerI admit to you, this will be really easier Make your own homemade soy yogurt.

this is not Not an obligationyou can manage it in a different way, and even, it still helps.

Yogurt machine to make homemade yogurt

For example, I’ve been making my own homemade soy yogurt for about fifteen years. But what really changed everything was the day I invested in a yogurt maker.

So be careful, a yogurt machine costs 5 euros!

This is a super simple model with a glass jar (similar to a yogurt maker) that I found at the recycling center.

But it’s prompted me to make my own yogurt more often than I did before I had that specific equipment.

for what? Because you don’t have to look for the right pot as this ensures the right temperature.

briefly, It’s easier. We love that!

What to do if you don’t have a yogurt machine?

To make homemade yogurt without a yogurt maker, you need to find a way Keep the temperature around 40°C-45°C (or 105°F-115°F).

This can be done using an oven, a box covered with a blanket placed near a heater, a pot or a ricer with regularly changing hot water, etc.

If you don’t make yogurt regularly, Use one of these methods This helps!

Otherwise, I would use my tempeh incubator for a long time. This is a simple cardboard box with a lamp that you can easily make yourself.

For flower pots you can collection of glass jarssmall or big, it all depends on your preference, it will fit perfectly!

With or without thermometer, control temperature

In order for the fermentation to proceed smoothly, the ideal method is to add the starter when the temperature of the soy yogurt reaches a certain temperature. The temperature is around 40°C, up to 45°C, no higher.

It’s easier with a thermometer Find out if you’re in the right temperature range.

No thermometer required, you can Boil about 1/3 of the milk Soybeans and add remaining milk at room temperature.

Check if the temperature is right by touching it. It should feel warm without burning you.

If it exceeds the temperature, wait patiently and let it cool. Otherwise, you risk killing the fermentation, oops!

Ingredients for homemade soy yogurt

The Right Soy Milk for Homemade Yogurt

To ensure smooth fermentation, Choose natural soy milk.

I prefer those where the ingredient list is limited to Soybeans and water.

But you can try flavored soy milk, which usually works too (but sometimes not so well).

Please note that this recipe does not work with rice or almond milk because Not all plant milks are fermented this way.

Fermentation for making soy yogurt

The easiest way is to use a little Original soy yogurt as fermentation. That’s what I used in this recipe.

You can find them in organic stores and in the fresh produce section of supermarkets.

Note that in most parts of the world, the name “yogurt” is not authorized for commercial use of plant-based products. So in stores you usually have to look for more vague names like “soy products.”

Look at the ingredient list, you should find it there Bean juice and fermentation, that’s it.

When you make soy yogurt regularly, you don’t need to buy soy yogurt from the store every time.

You can use homemade yogurt for fermentation.

If you follow the temperature and storage conditions carefully, you can easily go two months without buying new yogurt.

Then the fermentation becomes imbalanced, so you buy a new yogurt and start over again!

Soy yogurt making steps

Brief steps:

• Sterilize equipment: This is optional but recommended by scalding the equipment involved.
• heat milk Soybeans are around 40°C.
• add a little soy yogurt and mix.
• Pour into jars.
• Leave to ferment Heat for about 8 hours or until firm and has a characteristic smell.
• Place the soy yogurt in the refrigerator.

That’s it, that’s it!

Customize your homemade soy yogurt

I prefer to prepare plain soy yogurt, which I believe will work, and then add flavors as I wish.

Additionally, it allows Available in both sweet and savory flavors.

For example, I love making a vegan vanilla yogurt sauce.

I also sometimes use yogurt instead of cream in my delicious recipes because I always have some in the fridge.

For sweets, have fun with: fruit or jam, sugar or maple syrup, vanilla sugar or condiments of your choice, crumbles, etc.

You can even make 100% vegan yogurt cake!

In short, let your imagination and greed do the talking. The purpose is the same as milk yogurt.
