Cooker Trick for Creamy Yogurt: Make Halwai-Style Dahi at Home, Even in Winter

  • Mithilanchal culture highly values yogurt as a 'superfood' and tradition, but winter makes homemade thick yogurt challenging.
  • A 'cooker trick' from Darbhanga's traditional kitchens allows making thick, creamy yogurt at home, even in cold weather.
  • Boil milk, then cool it to lukewarm; add one spoonful of starter yogurt and mix well.
  • Heat a pressure cooker, place the milk bowl inside, close the lid, and leave overnight for perfectly set, butter-like yogurt.
  • Homemade yogurt is rich in probiotics, strengthening digestion, boosting immunity, and improving skin and hair health without harmful chemicals.

Why It Matters: Use a pressure cooker to easily make thick, creamy, probiotic-rich yogurt at home, even in winter.
