Ingredients

500g/1 pot of Yeo Valley Organic Natural Yogurt
2 tbsp organic cider vinegar

Method
Place ingredients in a saucepan and bring to the boil.
After 2mins, once curdled, remove from the heat.
Line a large sieve with a clean tea towel and place it over a large container to catch the whey.
Pour the curdled mixture into the lined sieve and leave to cool.
Twist the cloth with the curdled mixture to squeeze away the excess moisture, then remove from cloth and place in the container.

HANDY HINT:
The leftover whey can be used as a replacement for water in bread-making. It can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up 2 weeks.
