Make Sweet Shop Style Thick, Creamy Yogurt at Home: The Secret Revealed!

• Use only full-cream milk for rich, thick yogurt; its higher fat content is key for creamy texture.
• Boil milk, then cool to lukewarm before adding starter; incorrect temperature can ruin the setting process.
• Add 1 tablespoon of fresh yogurt (starter) per liter of milk; mix well to ensure even setting and avoid excessive sourness.
• Set yogurt in earthenware or glass pots; earthenware absorbs moisture, making yogurt naturally thicker.
• The secret: Do not remove the cream (malai) from the milk while boiling; this cream is crucial for extra thickness and richness.
