finally a simple vegan yogurt recipe for my simple brain I'm gonna try it tomorrow cause its a sunday so I get the result on wednesday lol

Wow! This is brilliant! Super simple...

Thanks for this video. Super easy and really good!

So simple and tasty! Thank you! :)

Thanks for this recipe! I had the final product ready today...and I'm thrilled! The flavor was perfect. I'm not sure how I even got here, because I wasn't even thinking about making my own yogurt. But, so glad I clicked on your video. I couldn't be happier getting a yogurt I can eat AND enjoy!

Well it makes me so happy that you are enjoying this wonderful stuff. I just had some today on my polenta, my kids love it. Just make the polenta with salt, water and a t olive oil. Put a big scoop on your plate, pour on the yogurt and enjoy! Easy yummy!

I L.O.V.E. this easy and tasty recipe. Thank You!!!! (It turned out great!)

If you don't want to buy probiotics you can use a store bought soy yoghurt to start with. Probiotics are expensive. Just make sure it has live culture on the pack or it won't work.

How clever. Thanks for posting. Makes preparing your own product for pennies even easier. I will give it a go !

Awesome!!!!

It works. Thanks!

Thanks Marlene and team for this recipe😃

Amazing. I've watched so many other videos, where you have to boil the soy milk, use the oven, or an Instant pot, etc. But this is so easy.

this is so amazing! It looks so easy. My boyfriend is lactose intolerant and I avoid dairy. I hope the recipe works for us too

I did this and it worked! But it wasn’t too thick. It was still really good. I made more but this time I poured my soy milk into the yogurt mix that was left over.

Fabulous! Thank you for posting! Just one small detail. Honey is NOT vegan, so to say "...it's completely vegan!" is untrue. Of course, one could use date paste, which is the healthiest sweetener, if someone prefers that. In any event, I love the process of making it in the same container. How easy! I will take my yogurt maker to the thrift store, Lol...

It's extra work but a nice treat once in a while - you can boil dried chamomile flowers with apple cider and sugar to make vegan apple honey. It tastes amazing - turns out "honey" flavor is really just flowers, whodathunk! Packets of dried chamomile flowers are often available at ethnic grocery stores :)

Brilliant!

I liked the idea of using the cartons directly

Great video - I just had to share that you can make soy yogurt from the store bought soy milk in the refrigerated section that has all the added ingredients- I’m not saying it’s better - but if it’s all you have it will make good soy yogurt. I cooked it to 180*- petit cool to about 100*- added culture then put it in my oven with light on for about 12 hrs - strained it - super thick and good. I only put this out there for people who can not find the plain - in my small town Wal-mart you can’t get the good stuff. I did drive an hour n half to a traders Joe to get the good stuff. Again, thank you for a great video.

If u put spoon of honey into the carton with the probiotic will it speed up the fermentation and be ready in 1 day

I just made this exactly like you did. After 3 days it was sour but thin. Didn’t thicken much at all. Any advice? Thank you.

Greetings to the CB team! Great job by the way on this video and its content. We tried it and we love the taste of it. A few quick Qs for you. 1- For the waiting period should the carton be touched, moved or opened or not? 2- If we put to of those capsules will it make the toughest any thicker?

+Edmond Matevosian Good questions! Adding more capsules does not make it ferment faster, what does increase the action is to keep it at 108' F, in a food dehydrator maybe. It could be ready in 8-12 hours if you do that, it also makes is a little more tart, which is what I really, really like!! Then I like to drizzle liquid honey on it!! Berries too! Good stuff! As summer approaches, if you save on AC like I do, the house gets so hot that you need to see if you put the capsule into the carton in the morning it might be done by the evening. When the yogurt is 'over done" it gets a little sharp flavor, not so bad, but if something else goes wrong it may smell off, or taste like bakers yeast etc. Happy experimenting and enjoy!

It'll add a few more steps to the process, but if you're vegan, look into Pomona's Pectin. It's a low-sugar pectin that works really well. Pectins for traditional jams and jellies need massive amounts of sugar to set (like 4 cups!). Otherwise, you could use agar agar which is gelatin that's extracted from seaweed.

Nubi Hairston If you keep adding a bit of agave and shake it up it can last longer than 10 days and even up to a month. Most people are not really consistent with feeding the yogurt. You can also add the last cup of your yogurt to a new batch of milk and it will culture the new batch overnight at room temperature, maybe a little longer if your nighttime temp falls into the 50s! Keep it next to a heater or fireplace or In a dehydrator if your house is too cold. If my yogurt gets too strong I don’t use it to start a new batch, I will just use another probiotic pill. Like I said before, the sharper, stronger stuff is good as a base for vegan cheese.

The yeasty smell tells me something went wrong and you have bacteria growing in there but it is not the right ones! Better get the right probiotic. Sometimes the soy yogurt you buy has thickeners in it, these could be added after culturing the product and these could inhibit the good bacteria from continuing to proliferate. Get the right probiotic and you will be happy. In the winter, I put my soy milk in front of the fireplace and it is ready in 12 hours.

Store bought yogurt uses gums and thickeners. This yogurt will be more like curds (a clumpy think liquid). Still, the smell should not be terrible. Perhaps you need to use more honey to ensure the lactobacillus plantarum are not enticed by abundance of protein in the mix and begin proteolytic fermentation instead of fermenting the sugars into lactate. I have had this happen occasionally and you will get a lot of gas being produced in the carton as well (methane, etc.).

A tip I've heard: make sure your probiotics do not include PREbiotics as well. (Also, honey producing bees aren't in danger, and keeping these European bees in the US doesn't help the environment or the local bees who are actually dying out.)

Hi Jessnyan. I’m curious why it can’t have prebiotics. Is it a non vegan thing or will it interfere with the fermentation?

Hello Friends! Make sure you use Jarrow Ideal Bowel Support L. Plantarum. I have used others but you need to heat the milk and control the temperature or use a yogurt maker or food dehydrator. The reason I use L. Planetarium is because anyone can make this without messing it up(temperature) and without any equipment. You can use homemade soy milk or any soy milk that is plain with no extra ingredients. Just soybeans and water. You can make it in a tupperware, a bowl or right in the milk container. You will love the taste of this yogurt- with all the Flavor / texture / versatility / joy / comfort / convenience and it is toooo easy! No cholesterol, no guilt! Pure healthy plant-based pleasure!

Vegans who don't eat honey are the worst. Honey-making helps the environment and it doesn't hurt the bees at all. Bees make a lot more honey than they will ever consume, so it's not like you'd be depriving them of their hard work or anything.
