    The secret is not more than 115°, or it will kill the culture.

    If warm to touch, but not uncomfortable, it's okay.

  7. 7
    Strain; pour into clean pint jars.
  8. 8
    Immerse jars in pot of hot water (again, about 115°, no hotter).
  9. 9
    Put lid on pot and stick it in oven for about 2 1/2 hours.
  10. 10
    Do not have heat on in oven, although it could be slightly warmed while making the mixture, but be sure it is turned off. Refrigerate.
  11. 11
    Beat with a fork slightly to make creamy before eating.
