Homemade Yogurt {Laban}

I remember as a child watching my Mom make homemade yogurt.

This is her making it when I visited Tennessee.

She had this awful orange colored yogurt maker that held 6 cups of yogurt and kept the Homemade Yogurt warm while it incubated. We would eat that stuff like it was candy.

If you are Lebanese you will probably know what I am talking about. We eat it with pita, kibbeh, grape leaves, for breakfast, mixed into a cucumber salad and list goes on. Yogurt is the “ketchup that you dip your fries in.” I can eat plain yogurt with nothing in it..actually I prefer my yogurt that way which a lot of people can’t stand (it can have a tart flavor).
