Instructions for making curd at home
- To make curd at home first bring milk to boil without adding any water. If you feel the milk is watery continue boiling it for few minutes. Always boil the milk just before making the curd because there is a good chance that the milk gets spoiled during the fermentation process.
- Wait until the milk is warm. Please note that the milk should neither be hot nor be cold. Now amount of curd to be added varies depending on the climate condition and the quality of milk. If you are living in a cold place or if you are using processed milk then add 2 tsp of curd and mix well. Otherwise use 1 tsp of curd and mix well.
- Now close the lid and leave it for 6-7 hours. Again the time varies depending on the amount of curd used and the climate. During this time make sure that you dont shake it or mix it till the curd is set. But if you add more curd or if you allow it to ferment for more time then it will turn soar. So if you have followed all the steps properly after 6-7 hours you will get thick home made curd.
