Bulgarian Yoghurt Starter

Bulgarian Yoghurt Starter Culture – Creamy, Tangy & Made Batch After Batch

Make delicious homemade yoghurt with our reusable Bulgarian Yoghurt Starter Culture. Known for its refreshing tang and creamy texture, Bulgarian yoghurt is a versatile kitchen favourite — equally delicious with fruit and honey or served alongside your favourite savoury dishes.

Bulgarian yoghurt uses a warm-loving culture, making it ideal for a yoghurt maker or another suitable method that maintains a steady incubation temperature. Our step-by-step instruction card guides you through getting started, while our FREE digital eBook and ongoing support help you build confidence with every batch.

Your first batch is just the beginning. Save a little plain yoghurt from each successful batch to culture fresh milk for the next. With regular care, you can keep your culture going and adjust subsequent batch sizes to suit your household, following the starter-to-milk ratios in your instructions.

You Will Receive

• Bulgarian Yoghurt Starter Culture – a dried starter to establish your own reusable culture for traditional, tangy homemade yoghurt.
• High-quality double-sided full-colour instruction card – simple, step-by-step guidance, designed to look great as part of a gift.
• FREE Yoghurt Digital eBook – a handy digital companion included with your culture at no additional cost.
• Ongoing support – personal help whenever you need it to get the best results from your culture — email, chat or phone.

Milk and equipment are supplied separately. Your instruction card explains what you need, how to get your starter going and how to make subsequent batches. Set aside your next starter before straining, adding flavourings or enjoying the last spoonful!

A Culture You Can Keep Going

Start your culture using the first-batch method on your instruction card. Once you have a successful batch, reserve a small portion of plain, unstrained yoghurt to culture fresh milk for the next. You don’t need a new sachet for every batch when your culture is healthy and maintained correctly.

Making yoghurt for yourself or a busy household? Adjust subsequent batch sizes by keeping the recommended ratio of saved yoghurt to fresh milk. Choose a quantity that suits your needs and that your equipment can keep at the required incubation temperature.

Traditional Yoghurt, Made at Home

Follow your instruction card to prepare your milk, add your starter at the recommended temperature and keep it consistently warm while it cultures. Once ready, refrigerate your yoghurt to chill and allow its texture to firm before enjoying.

Your choice of milk, preparation method and culturing conditions all influence the finished yoghurt. As you get to know your culture, you’ll develop a feel for the flavour and consistency you enjoy most, using the supplied guidance to keep each batch on track.

Enjoy It Your Way

Spoon your Bulgarian yoghurt over granola, pair it with seasonal fruit or finish it with honey and chopped nuts. Its tangy flavour also makes it a delicious base for dips, dressings and sauces.

For a thicker, strained yoghurt, drain some of your finished chilled batch through a suitable yoghurt strainer in the fridge. First, keep a separate portion of plain, unstrained yoghurt as the starter for your next batch.
