Culture cupboard soy milk yogurt

It’s the easiest starter ever!

Name: Culture cupboard easy soy milk yogurt
Ingredients: 1-2 litres of soy milk; Culture cupboard plant-based starter

This homemade soy milk yogurt is so simple. With Culture Cupboard plant-based starter the process is easy and failsafe. It's smooth, thick, and creamy, and unlike other plant-based yogurt recipes, this one sets like a charm. Homemade soy yogurt has an earthy taste with the perfect tang. Keep it plain or add sweeteners, or vanilla after chilling.

STARTER CULTURE

Culture Cupboard’s Plant Based Yogurt Starter contains four bacterial strains:

Streptococcus thermophilus
Lactobacillus acidophilus
Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. Bulgaricus
Bifidobacterium

All the strains are grown in a non-dairy medium so your homemade yogurt will be vegan. Culture Cupboard Plant Based Starter contains everything you need to ensure probiotic rich yogurt with great texture. It’s everything you love about yogurt, without the dairy!

THICKENER

During fermentation, store bought soy milk does not thicken like dairy yogurt. The Luvele test kitchen has experimented with many different thickening agents to achieve thick and creamy plant-based yogurt. On our recipe blog you’ll find a thickening option to suit every dietary need. We are excited to offer yet another option. Included in the Culture Cupboard Plant Based Starter packet is a ‘base’ thickening agent. The ‘base’ is made up of agar and organic rice starch and guarantees a consistent texture with no separation, every time.

SOYMILK

Use your favourite soy milk with the least amount of additive or even better a brand that contains just soybeans and water. For a high-quality yogurt, consider making your own soy milk from scratch. Our recipe makes 2 litres of creamy soy milk yogurt. For an even thicker yogurt reduce the amount of soy milk to 1.5 litres or experiment with the quantity to find your ideal texture.

PLANT-BASED YOGURT MADE EASY!

If you want to have more plant-based homemade yogurt, with an easy method in your life, Culture Cupboard plant-based starter is the way to go. Once you have tried Culture Cupboard Plant Based Yogurt Starter with soy milk you can experiment and make delicious nut, coconut, seed, and oat milk yogurts at home, from either store bought or homemade milks with the same method.

Ingredients

1-2 litres of soy milk
Culture cupboard plant-based starter

Directions

Before you begin, sterilise the Luvele yogurt making glass jar and any utensils you use, in boiling hot water. Do this by boiling a kettle and carefully pouring the hot water in the jar and over the equipment. The danger of not sterilising is that other bacteria may overpower your culture and affect the quality of your ferment.
Pour the soy milk into a saucepan.
Add the ‘base’ (larger sachet) from the plant-based starter pack and mix it in.
Blend with a whisk as you heat the soy milk to 185°F (85°C).
Let the soy milk cool to 113°F (45°C) or below.
Discard the skin that forms on the milk as it cools.
Pour the soy milk into the Luvele yogurt making glass jar.
Add the starter culture (smaller sachet) and whisk well to incorporate. The soy milk is now ready for fermentation.
Put the lid on the yogurt making jar and place into the yogurt maker. Pour water slowly into the base. The water must not be filled over the ‘tall line’ indicated on the inside wall of the maker. Place the cover lid on top.
Use the digital control panel to set the temperature to 38°C and the time to 8-12 hours (a longer fermentation will increase the probiotics and produce slightly more tang) and then press ‘confirm’ to begin incubation.
Condensation will have collected under the cover lid during fermentation. Take care removing it and allow the water to drip into the water bath, instead of your bench. Switch the yogurt maker off and remove the yogurt jar.
Straight from the maker the soy milk yogurt will be warm. Place the yogurt in the fridge for at least 6 hours to set, then enjoy.
Homemade soy milk yogurt will last up to 2 weeks refrigerated.
