Yogurt

  • Overview

    Yogurt is milk that has fermented under the action of lactic bacteria. Certain specific bacterial strains convert part of the lactose into lactic acid. The milk coagulates when a sufficient quantity of lactic acid is produced. Today, the curdling is performed by the combined action of two traditional fermenting agents that produce the lactic acid and the components that determine the yogurt's characteristic flavour: Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus.
