                    I am submitting this as a recipe assuming you have made yogurt, have a yogurt maker or: there are several recipes here at 'Zaar describing  how to make  Yogurt. This makes a mild, smooth vanilla yogurt great plain, with fruit, cereals or grains. (time does not include chilling time) Ingredients: 
                    
                        
                                                4 cups milk (your choice whole-skim)  |  
                                                1/2 cup powdered dry milk  |  
                                                1 tablespoon vanilla extract  |  
                                                4 -6 tablespoons sugar (splenda or honey)  |  
                                                1/2 cup yogurt starter (unflavored plain yogurt with active cultures)  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. Set 1/2 yogurt starter out to warm to room temperature. 2. Heat the milk to almost a boil.(I like to microwave in a glass bowl for 5 minutes on high then 2 minutes on medium). Cool the milk (to a  barely warm / babies bath temperature) (cool water bath works well). Add dry milk, vanilla and sweetener of your choice; stir well. 3. Stir in yogurt starter (do not whip but mix very well!). 4.  Cook  the yogurt using your preferred method and time (longer makes a firmer, more tart yogurt. I like to cook about 12 hours). Chill 4 hours before eating.                              |
