Fresh homemade yogurt
I’ll keep this short and sweet. We’ve been in lock down (shelter in place/ social distance mode) for at least a month and a half. So, I thought I would make videos of really simple things that I never really thought warranted videos. But given a lot of time to reflect – like, a lot of time during this pandemic – I realized that sometimes it’s the simple things that we take for granted. Case in point: yogurt. It’s probably the easiest thing to make provided you have milk, a yogurt starter (any plain yogurt should work provided it has live yogurt cultures), a way to keep it warm (110°F) and time (a few hours). People have been making yogurt for millenia, so it’s literally not rocket science, because rockets did not exist 5000 years ago. Unless aliens were actually the ones who… oh never mind. Check out the video for how I do it. As yogurt making is so simple and easy, it’s inherently calming, because you’re doing nothing but waiting. And so, inspired by my niece and her first foray into ASMR, I decided to try my hand at making a calm and soothing video. Let’s just say, at least the yogurt turned out. I’ll let you be the judge. Please watch with volume up or headphones for the full calming effect.
