yes
You can use alternatives like vegetable oil, applesauce, or Greek yogurt as substitutes for butter in muffins.
I personally use yogurt in place of butter in banana bread and oatmeal cookies, any cookies actually. I have never tried muffins but assume it works about the same. For cookies it turns out very light and they puff up better, for bread it helps keep it moist and tastes great.
Yes, but make sure it is plain yogurt, and that you mix it with a little milk to make it less dense.
Recipes I have used, and that came with my yogurt maker say you can use: Whole milk 2% milk 1% milk Fat free milk Soy Milk or Almond milk to make yogurt. I have never seen a recipe using cream for yogurt making. So I think all purpose cream would make a heavy yogurt and so would whipping cream. When I made yogurt using 2% milk it is much lighter than yogurt make with whole milk and takes longer to cure. The yogurt maker suggested 10 hours for whole milk yogurt and 12 hours for 2% yogurt. Good luck.
You can use regular milk, almond milk, soy milk, or yogurt as substitutes for coconut milk in curry.
Yogurt butter can be used in baking recipes as a substitute for traditional butter to add a tangy flavor and moisture. Some creative ways to use yogurt butter include making yogurt buttercream frosting, using it in place of butter in muffins or quick breads, or incorporating it into cookie dough for a unique twist.
You can use buttermilk or yogurt as a substitute for sour milk in the recipe.
To make homemade yogurt, you can use a simple starter recipe by combining milk and a small amount of store-bought plain yogurt containing live cultures. Heat the milk, cool it to a specific temperature, mix in the yogurt, and let it ferment for several hours until it thickens.
milk is boiled to kill of any unwanted microbes. bacteria are then added which release enzymes that make the milk go thick and slightly sour. flavouring can be added to yogurt to change the taste.
You can use iodized salt, sea vegetables (like nori or kombu), cod, fish, milk, yogurt, and eggs as alternative sources of iodine if you are unable to use iodine itself.
To use vinegar instead of bacteria for making yogurt, start by heating milk to about 180°F (82°C) and then cooling it to around 110°F (43°C). Add a few tablespoons of vinegar (white or apple cider) to the warm milk, stirring gently to combine. Cover the mixture and let it sit in a warm place for several hours until it thickens. The acidity from the vinegar will curdle the milk, creating a yogurt-like consistency, although the flavor and texture may differ from traditional yogurt made with bacterial cultures.
we use bacteria (called starter) to make yoghurt from boiled milk.
