I recently purchased a cookbook that challenges politically correct nutrition and I have found that majority of their baking recipes call for yogurt. I love knowing where my food is coming from as well as the ingredients that are in it. Yogurt can be used for many different things and I feel so proud knowing I can make my own food that is also superb for my health.
The yogurt I have made is filled with numerous probiotics that works wonders in the digestive tract and contributes to a marvelous immune system. Many of the meat products deplete the microflora in the large intestines which contribute to that marvelous immune system we all would like to have. There are supplement one could take to get more probiotics in the diet but it is always best to get it naturally through one's diet. I believe this yogurt is the way to go to achieve sustainable microflora!
The fermentation process is fascinating to me and I am very intrigued by it. I don't plan on just stopping at yogurt, I want to explore other nutritious foods that I can make with the help of microbes.
Glad this worked out for you. It is immense fun. And as you can see from the other blogs, there are lots of fermented foods to try.
