Homemade Health: Yogurt (Virtual)

January 21, 2021, 6:30 PM - 7:00 PM @ Virtual class hosted by Bedford Public Library

It's a new year and a great time to start new, healthy habits. Start by learning the benefits of adding probiotic foods to your diet in this LIVE three-part series. You will learn three basic fermentation techniques to make yogurt, sauerkraut, and kombucha. Each of these foods improves digestion and provides immunity-boosting nutrients. Online registration is required to receive the Zoom link to the live class. The ingredients you’ll need if you want to cook along with the instructor are listed below. This class should only take about 20-30 minutes in total. | TODAY'S CLASS: YOGURT | Although yogurt is generally assumed to be a nutritious snack, many of the drinkable, spoon-able, and squeezable yogurt products that come in countless flavors contain only a marginal amount of probiotics. Homemade yogurt is easy to make and rich in gut-healthy microbes. By learning how to make plain yogurt yourself, you can control the amount of sugar and create your own flavors.
