What is the process of making yoghurt?
1) Milk is homogenised so the fat droplets are broken down so they can’t be separated
2) Milk is pasteurised to destroy any harmful bacteria
3) Milk is fermented by adding a starter culture to the bacteria - this means it’s incubated
4) Bacteria acts with milk, sugar and lactose to produce lactic acid. This coagulates milk protein
5) The thickening process produces the creamy yoghurt consistency
