How to make healthier yogurt at home
Consumer Reports reveals the simple way to make homemade yogurt that offers all of the pros โ thatโs protein and probiotics โ without the cons. But if you have a favorite brand of plain yogurt already, just save a few tablespoons of it and use that as a starter for your homemade yogurt. Consumer Reports also checked out two other ways to make homemade yogurt using the sous vide method and the Instant Pot. Results from the Instant Pot were disappointing, even after fermenting the yogurt three times longer than the sous vide method. If youโd rather leave your yogurt to the pros, Consumer Reports says Fage TruBlend Low Fat Greek Yogurt is one of the healthier options at the grocery store.
