Relaxing day ❤️

 New Masterclass on Lisa Pay blew my mind …I’m really looking forward to making those boots !

I did a little work on a bear and my goat today 

And also did this …Gorgeous! 

I really wanted to have a go at making my own yogurt …so I have and it’s bloody lovely 

I swatted up on a couple of blogs 

hardest part was finding the yogurt function !

Turn the unit on , turn stop start dial to 

Select Yogurt / dehydration…

then turn the stop start dial  to select yogurt function , press TEMP AND TURN DISL TO SELECT YOGURT 

Add the milk ..I used 2 litres 

Use the pressure cooker lid with the vent open 

Let it boil …the unit displays “biol” it it will pip when it’s done 

Then it will switch to cool 

Leave it to cool …this took mine unit about 2 1/2 hours …just leave it ..don’t be tempted to skip this 

The unit pips …stir and whisk 

In 2 tablespoons of any live yogurt 

( I tipped it out and added it to a mixing bowl as I didn’t want to scratch my Ninja with the whisk ) 

Add it back to the Ninja ..close the lid …and press start again ,and it counts down from 8 hours 

Mine came out perfect after 8 hours 

Beautiful thick and creamy ..I wanted to try Greek ..so I strained it overnight…it’s like cream now ..it’s amazing 

I will be doing it again
