Yesterday I unwrapped the current yogurt supply. As you see, I make it with containers of hot water, one either side, wrapped in a cloth, inside two insulated bags, one inserted into the other.
This keeps it steadily, evenly, warm, and I usually leave it for 24 hours, longer than the usual time, but I like the extra tang and consistency. It's still slightly warm when I open it.
You can see the consistency here, served with blueberries, sprinkle of pure cane sugar.
There's something very satisfying about making yogurt, using a few spoonfuls of the previous batch as a starter. I make it about weekly, until the texture gets thinner, then I get a container of Nancy's yogurt from Misfits, to start a new cycle. This time around, it's been quite a few weeks.
Yogurt is my go-to for snacks rather than ice cream, for sour cream substitute, in pastry dough, and to make labneh cream cheese. All purpose food!
The time change is still with me, but I only had to fix a couple of clocks, unlike the groundskeepers here
I did get the knitting ministry gloves completed, still to be finished, and started a neck gaiter in Tunisian crochet.
And, in need of encouragement, found a bit in the daily poem
I keep up with the daily poetry readings from the 365 poems book, though a lot in February were stuck on romantic love, and a bit hackneyed.
Happy day, everyone, pick your poem, whatever form that takes for you, and go for it. Gently, if the time change is an issue for you.
