Have seen this in the supermarket so will be interested to know the answer. Hopefully one of our seasoned yoghurt makers can answer how and when to incorporate vanilla bean into the milk.

I haven't seen this one. It is obviously nice.

If your in Australia, and have a wooworths YOU MUST try it! to die for

I really need to learn how to make yoghurt first and then maybe i can try to copy the flavours

It's an organic yoghurt too! Delish

I'll look in WW tomorrow. Sometimes we don't get the same yoghurts etc as people do in the Eastern States.

I keep meaning to try this myself.  I haven't decided whether to add some good quality extract, vanilla sugar, or ground vanilla beans.  I thought whichever I tried I'd stir through just before I left the yogurt to set so the flavour would permeate more.

If I get time today I'm going to try a batch.

MMM, sounds nice. I imagine that you could add the vanilla bean paste when you heat the milk, like you would add sugar if you wanted your yoghurt sweeter. I don't think it should create the problems that the acidity of fruit does. Will be interested in hearing about everyone's experiments. I can barely keep up with the demand for plain yoghurt in this house, let alone getting around to other flavours!

Lol Harper, it does sound silly doesn't it :)
I thought the same thing when I first made yogurt. Faffa can explain it better than me. But it the culture starter to turn the rest of the ingredients into yogurt. Bit like when yeast is added to bread dough it makes it rise but on its own it does nothing. :)

Harper I tasted the  Five AM yoghurt when I was in Melbourne. It is very nice.
