Make your own Kefir in 12 - 24 hours easily!

in Foodies Bee Hive2 years ago (edited)

I have discovered a super easy and economical way of making Kefir in just a few easy steps. Making Kefir turns ordinary milk into a rich source of probiotics which helps add healthy gut friendly bacteria into your digestive tract.

Kefir in the store around here is over $5 dollars for a one liter bottle. Starter packs available online range from around $10 to $25. I was going to go that route but then I thought maybe I should just buy some kefir in a bottle and see if I can use some of that to culture my own batches. Well it worked exceptionally well!

Ingredients:

1/4 cup Kefir with active bacterial culture
1 liter milk (I used 3.75% fat content)

Directions:

Use a clean bowl or jar, mix Kefir and milk, cover the top and leave somewhere at room temperature or warm for 12 -24 hours. Then it's ready! I just leave it in the refrigerator after that.

It works faster if you add more Kefir to begin with but it's not really necessary. You'll notice that the consistency goes from thin milk to yogurt in 12 -24 hours. Depending on how much Kefir you want you could easily culture a gallon jug with the same process. This one liter Kefir bottle I purchased should be enough to culture a dozen or more larger batches.

I was really hoping this post would gain more attention as this drink is a wonderful addition to your diet. Give it a try and see if you feel good by adding this into your diet.
