Discover the Creamy Delight of Skyr Yogurt

Skyr yogurt is a traditional Icelandic dairy product celebrated for its creamy, thick texture and rich flavor. With a slightly sour and tangy taste, skyr yogurt is similar to Greek yogurt, making it a favorite among yogurt enthusiasts. Once fermented, it has the consistency of thick, curd-like yogurt that can be enjoyed as is or strained to create the thick, creamy texture of store-bought Skyr.

Authentic Icelandic Skyr Yogurt Starter Culture

Our Skyr Yogurt Starter Culture is derived from traditional Icelandic skyr, ensuring an authentic taste and texture that rivals the best store-bought brands. With its velvety consistency, once strained, skyr is perfect for topping with fruits and granola or using as the base for dips.

Health Benefits of Skyr Yogurt

  • Probiotic-Rich: Skyr is packed with probiotics, which support gut health and overall well-being.
  • High in Protein: This nutritious dairy product is an excellent choice for those seeking to increase their protein intake.

Reculturing Skyr Yogurt

To reculture skyr yogurt, reserve some yogurt from your last batch to start a new one. One tablespoon of skyr yogurt will culture one cup of fresh milk at 40°C, allowing you to enjoy a continuous supply of homemade skyr yogurt.

Note:
Please use an urban address where possible. Live cultures are couriered out on Mondays and Tuesdays.

How to Use

Caret Down

Heat Milk: Heat milk to 100°C and then let it cool to 43°C.

Add Starter Culture: Add the Skyr Yogurt Starter Culture and stir thoroughly.

Incubate: Incubate the mixture between 40-43°C for 5-24 hours until it has fermented and thickened, naturally forming small curds.

Chill: Chill in the refrigerator for a few hours before serving.

For extra thick skyr yogurt, strain it through a cheese or nut milk bag for 3-5 hours after step 3. If straining for a long time, do so in the fridge. The whey will drain out, leaving a thick, creamy yogurt. Rennet can be used if you prefer to create more defined curds and whey.
