Everything about Soy Yogurt totally explained
Soy yogurt also referred to as
Soygurt is
yogurt prepared using
soy milk, yogurt bacteria, mainly
Lactobacillus bulgaricus and
Streptococcus thermophilus and sometimes additional sweetener, like
fructose,
glucose,
honey or raw
sugar .
It is one of the best alternatives to
dairy yogurt for people with
lactose intolerance (despite frequent claims of the opposite, dairy yogurt contains sometimes even more lactose than fresh milk, only the presence of the bacteria producing
lactase makes it slightly easier to digest, but only for individuals without a severe lactose intolerance). It is also suitable for
vegans, as the
bacteria for store bought soy yogurt are usually not grown on a dairy base.
Soy yogurt can be prepared at home using the same method as dairy yogurt . One table spoon of additional sweetener per 1 liter of unsweetened, pure soy milk may be added to thicken the yogurt and make it more yogurt like. Soy milk on its own lacks the
lactose (milk sugar) that's the basic food for the yogurt bacteria.
Soy yogurt tastes like usual dairy
cream yogurt. Soy yogurt may have a slight
soy aftertaste, but good, store bought soy yogurt is a 100% alternative to the dairy counterpart.
Soy yogurt contains less fat than its dairy counterpart. This amounts to about 2.7% (the same percentage as soy milk) .
