YOGURT
1 quart milk 1/2 cup powdered milk
2 Tbsp plain commercial yogurt (or 2-3 Tbsp of yogurt starter)
fruits & sweeteners
.
In a saucepan mix milk, powdered milk together, heat to scalding.
.
Remove from heat and let cool to 110°F (43oC).
.
Mix the yogurt well with the cooled scaled milk (if using yogurt starter, add to 1/3 cup scaled
milk and mix well, then return to the remaining milk).
.
Set the dehydrator to 108°F (42oC) NOTE: If the temperature is too high the yogurt will curdle.
If the temperature is too low, the yogurt will take longer to thicken.
.
Pour the milk yogurt mixture into flat containers and cover with plastic wrap.
.
Place the flat containers in the dehydrator for 2-4 hours or until thickened.
.
Remove the yogurt from the dehydrator and allow to cool.
.
Stir in the flavorings or fruits to taste.
MOISTURE IN THE CONTAINER
CAUSE: Incomplete Drying. Food cut unevenly, thus incomplete drying.
Dried foods left at room temperatrue too long after cooling,
moisture has re-entered the foods.
PREVENTION: Test food for dryness before removing from the dehydrator. Cut
foods evenly. Cool quickly and package immediately.
__________________________________________________________________
MOLD ON FOOD
CAUSE: Incomplete drying. Food not checked for moisture content within
a week. Storage container not air-tight. Storage temperature
too warm/moisture in food. Case hardening may have occured,
meaning the food was dried at too high of a temperature and food
was dried on the outside but not completed dried on the inside.
PREVENTION: Test several food pieces for dryness. Check the storage
container within 1 week for moisture, then redry food if needed.
Use air-tight containers for storage. Store foods in cool areas
that are 70°F (21
o
C) or below. Dry foods at appropriate
temperatures/use the Drying Guide for reference.
