Dzie Probiotic Yogurt in Ghana (ACTS - used as starter culture for homemade yogurt, visible in bottle and being poured, removing it would change the video's outcome; its success is the video's point). Ria's Home Finds Accra (APPEARS - mentioned in caption as source of storage container, removing it would not change the video's outcome).

Transcript

A tiny mistake ruined my first homemade yogurt. And instead of giving up, I asked you guys, what should I do? And to my surprise, nearly 600 of you voted and 88% of you said try again. So if this fails, then we are all taking the blame. I used the same milk powder, I used the same yogurt as my starter culture. But this time around, I fixed that one mistake and hoped for the best. Then came the hardest part. Honestly, I wasn't ready to waste another batch of milk. If you hours later, it was finally time to find out and look at that. Thick, creamy homemade yogurt. We actually did it, guys. Since the recipe wasn't the problem, it was one small mistake. The milk was too hot the first time. So I didn't cover it with towel & bags this time. Would you actually try making yogurt at home using my video as a reference? And more importantly, comment what I should risk next. So you don't have to. Don't forget to save this recipe for later.
