Multicooker Recipe Book Basic Yogurt Recipe Ingredients Milk (1 %, 2%, or whole will work. Higher fat content in milk will typically yield thicker output). Yogurt starter or plain yogurt 2 cups water Equipment You will also need small glass jars or a larger glass or stainless steel bowl to function as the yogurt container. You can use either multiple smaller jars or one larger glass or stainless steel bowl based on your preference. 1 Fill glass containers with milk, leaving approximately 1 ½" head space before rim of container. 2 Place water in bottom of Multicooker. Place steamer rack in cooker, then place glass jars or bowl onto rack. Put the lid on and turn the exhaust valve to "Sealing". 3 Select "Manual" and press "-" to reach 1 minute. Then press the "Start" button. 4 When cooking cycle is complete, use natural pressure release method. The natural pressure release method will take approximately 15 minutes. 5 Let milk cool to 115 degrees. This may take anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour depending on the size of the glass vessel used. A general rule of thumb is that if the glass is not too hot to handle, the temperature is cool enough to proceed to the next step. 6 Add approximately 1 tsp. yogurt starter or plain yogurt to milk container(s), and stir until completely dissolved. Use a bit more if you are using a larger glass or steel bowl - a good rule of thumb is 1 tsp. per cup of milk used. 7 Place glass containers back into Multicooker, and onto the steamer rack. There should still be some water left in the Multicooker. Put the lid on and turn the exhaust valve to "Sealing". 8 Press "Yogurt" button and use "+" and "-" buttons to reach desired cook time. 8 hours is the standard cook time, but you may find other recipes that specify less time. Then press the "Start" button. 9 When the yogurt cycle is complete, open the cooker using the quick release method. Tip Chill yogurt in refrigerator approximately 2 hours before eating it. Once you have mastered this basic recipe, you may wish to add fruit, vanilla, or other spices to vary the taste. Also, you may wish to vary cook times and milk type used depending on your preferred taste. ENG - 2
