How to Make Organic

Yoghurt from Chickpeas?



I would like to explain how to make culture from chickpea for natural yoghurt. If you like to make yoghurt and also looking forward to finding how to get your natural culture for the yoghurt, I explain here, how you would produce a yoghurt culture at home.


Ingredients

20 chickpeas.


1 glass of Organic Milk


1st day

Leave the 20 chickpeas in a glass, then measure the glass of milk,  boil it till the temperature gets to 65°C wait cooling down till 38°C, pour this milk into the glass with chickpeas. (reminder never use milk in carton )
Cover the glass with a cloth then keep it for 1 day, even you can leave it in an oven which is heated 2 or 3 min in 100 °C for 1 day.

2nd day

After 24 hrs open the cover or take it from the oven and take the chickpeas out of the glass, now close the lid.keep in the fridge 24 hrs.

3rd day

Again after 24 hrs keep that milk in the glass, which is covered with a lid within the fridge open poured in a strainer. That leftover on top of a strainer, which will be your first yoghurt culture.

This time, boil 2 glasses of milk till the temperature gets to 65° C. Wait cooling down till 38°C, pour this milk as slowly stirring into the culture and make sure to mix properly. Suggested pouring in an earthen pot, cover with a cloth or keep it again in the oven which is heated 2 or 3 min in 100 °C for 12 hrs. 

After waiting for 12 hrs, this became yoghurt from chickpeas culture. I assume it will be a bit liquid this time but after making yoghurt from this culture 2 or 4 times, which you will get a very good yoghurt structure.


4th day

Our produce of yoghurt from chickpea culture now may be a bit liquid but repeat again, for 2 glasses of boiled until 65° C. Wait cooling down till 38°C, again then this time will be much nicer.

You can do this process by repeating the 5th day taking 2 spoons from yoghurt and 6th day increasing the milk half-litre using the 5th-day yoghurt to make it which will be good organic yoghurt.

What is Organic?
Necessary Information about Organic Farms and food.

When we do not clearly know about one subject, usually getting some more complexity.One of the most popular terminologies which describe it is organic foods and organic products. According to many pieces of information, the identify organic product, the following parameters were used, certification of the right organisation such as the organic control bodies, labelling, packing. 

Those products must not have any chemical supplement, the process of production should have been a long period in the natural environment also under the control of the organic control bodies as authorised by the government department.
First of all, principles of the products where located, the environment is located must be regulated and clean from industrial factories such as polluted organic production area. There are many restrictions, qualifications and policies.

These days matters are organic products, nowadays we call Organic compost, Organic Seed, Organic Vegetables, Organic Farm, Organic Shampoo, Organic Chicken, Organic Nappies even Organic textile.




Does all-natural mean Organic?


As we described above, natural products are not exactly organic products.  When the product grows as itself in a natural environment can be pointed as a natural product, however, in fact, do not require any certificate by organisation bodies and also might be a factory or industrial area nearby. As an example, a plant in your balcony would be as natural but not organic. Another complexity is GMO  ( Genetically Modified Organism) Corn, soya Beans, Banana which is some of the acknowledged examples of GMO, On the other hand, a product used Hormone as we notice contains hormones which are not healthy for our immune system as we buying products should consider all these issues.
