Making Yogurt. INTRODUCTION Yogurt is a fermented milk product which was apparently broght to Turkey by the mongols millenia ago.
It is produced by adding a "starter" of active yogurt containing a mixed culture of Lactobacillus bulgaricus (or occasionally L. acidophilus ) and Streptococcus thermophilus. These produce lactic acid during fermentation of lactose. The lactic acid lowers the pH, makes it tart, causes the milk protein to thicken and acts as a preservative since pathogenic bacteria cannot grow in acid conditions. The partial digestion of the milk when these bacteria ferment milk makes yogurt easily digestible. In addition, these bacteria will help settle GI upset including that which follows oral antibiotic therapy by replenishing non-pathogenic flora of the gastrointestinal tract.

Flat wide rice noodles served in a bowl of delicately spiced beef broth with thin slivers of beef and garnishes of aromatic fresh herbs and vegetables.
