About Amasi Heirloom Mesophilic Yogurt Starter Culture

Amasi yogurt, which is sometimes called Amasai, is a traditional, fermented milk beverage that is very similar to Milk Kefir. It has the consistency of a liquid yogurt and has a fairly mild, slightly tart flavour. If you like it a bit more solid, double your starter culture for a thick, creamy delight! Did you know that one of Nelson Mandela’s favorite foods was amasi? He wrote to his wife, Winnie, while in prison, talking about how much he missed it: “How I long for amasi, thick and sour! You know darling there is one respect in which I dwarf all my contemporaries or at least about which I can confidently claim to be second to none - a healthy appetite.” We agree with Mandela here - thick and creamy or thin and soothing, amasi is always a winning choice! KID APPROVED! Our child tester believes this culture is fun to drink, and particularly good with a bit of honey or in a fruit smoothie. She gives ONE THUMB UP!! for amasi. If this is made thick and spoonable, it then gets TWO THUMBS UP!! from her! When more solid, she says she really loves this one! You will receive 1 TEASPOON of cultures. These cultures were made with organic whole milk. Cultures at room temperature. To reduce waste, activation instructions are available on our website.
