I have been making natural yogurt from diary milk for a while now (see my post here) and it got me thinking: would it be possible to use the same method to make a non-diary one this time. I made some research on the internet of the process and bacteria culture could be used. Every website I opened said to add sugar and, promoted a specially prepared mixed of yogurt cultures for non-diary milk that, of course, is not available in my country. I didn't necessarily want to pay international shipping, so I decided to just try and see if the culture I have and often use works. Just in case it wasn't working the way I wanted, I have also bought some soy yogurt with live bacteria culture. In the end, I achieved one liter of nice soy yogurt made with both methods. Now, I wonder if I can make the same thing with coconut milk.

Cheers!!

2. Add the culture or yogurt and mix well for 1-2 minutes then transfer the soy milk to jars and into a yogurt maker (It is also possible to use thermos, as long as the milk is incubated at about 40oC). Wait for 9-12 hours and enjoy homemade soy yogurt!!
