How to Make Homemade Yogurt From Raw Milk

The raw milk used to make yogurt contains a higher concentration of solids than normal milk. By increasing the solids content of the milk, a firm, rather than soft, end product results. Addition of nonfat dry milk  is the easiest at-home method for doing this. Another method is using scaled milk  heating milk near boiling, then letting it cool down to 40 to 46 °C (105 to 115 °F). The process denaturates  whey proteins, which makes yogurt thicker.

The yogurt making process provides two significant barriers to pathogen growth,heat and acidity (low pH). Both are necessary to ensure a safe product. Acidity alone has been questioned by recent outbreaks of food poisoning by that is acid-tolerant. Is easily destroyed by pasteurization (heating). Therefore, pasteurized milk is used for making yogurt.

This initial process is the first step in making strained yogurt as mentioned above by eliminating some of the liquid whey.While you can definitely buy Greek yogurt from the store to complete this dish, the homemade variety is so much tastier and less expensive.  I encourage you all to try making it from scratch.
