Sour Cream

Put 300ml pure cream in a 300g glass jar such as an old coconut oil jar. Add 1 ½ tbsp of natural active yoghurt. Put the lid on and shake. Put in an easy yo maker and fill with very hot water. Change the water every 8 hours and let it ferment for 24 hours. Taste every so often until it is the flavour that you like, you can let it go over 24 hours if you wanted more sourness. You can do this in a dehydrator, thermi or I have seen people do this in the oven just using the oven light on. Have also seen this with a heat pack and wrapped in a blanket and put in an esky. Heat the heatpack every few hours. The colder the temp is the longer this will take. You can of course use an electric yoghurt maker. The easy yo you can buy at the supermarket for $20. This should turn out really thick just like store brought sour cream!

If you want to make yoghurt the instructions are the same but you use whole milk. I like to make ½ milk and ½ cream for a richer yoghurt. Still use 1 ½ tbsp. of starter yoghurt to 1 cup approx. of milk/cream.
