Yoghurt, As It Should Be at Verlorenkloof

The words “as it should be” hark back to small family farms, pasture based dairy, a time before indus Full of live cultures and essential nutrients.”

Production of our Yoghurt

The soils on which the pastures grow are tested regularly and the minerals are carefully replenished to create an optimum chemical balance in the soils. Irrigated with pure and specially aerated water, this makes the soil porous and aerobic and unlocks the amazing biological activity which makes a soil truly alive. This allows the grasses and legumes to extract from the

soil the nutrients and capture from the sun the energy required for the building of the fibre, energy, proteins, minerals and enzymes which makes ideal food for cows. Raised on the farm, the cows run in a small herd and are always happy to go out and graze. They soon lie down in a clean spot to ruminate, a magical process which converts the grass to nutritious milk, capturing all the goodness. Twice a day the cows head back to the squeaky clean milking parlour, pleased to release the milk they have made and to receive a treat of grains, salt and minerals. The milk is cooled down quickly and carefully kept until it is time for the yoghurt to be made. Then, it is heated up slowly in a big vat to a steamy heat, kept that way for a while and then allowed to cool to body temperature, ideal for the addition of a teaspoon tip of special probiotic culture which will ferment for twelve hours and gently turn the milk into Yoghurt. All the goodness and nutrients are preserved, and are concentrated by straining the yoghurt in muslin bags. This releases the precious whey which is collected and stored for making into a protein drink. The yoghurt has a smooth, creamy texture, a clean, cool, balanced taste, only slightly tart, with a pleasing aftertaste which inspires another spoonful. In spite of having no stabilisers or preservatives added it improves in the refrigerator for at least three weeks. You can add sweet, savoury, salt, herbaceous and mild sour flavours like lemon juice and this yoghurt just reinvents itself every time. Just liquid enough for muesli, it happily replaces cream in any recipe from cakes to scrambled eggs, and is firm enough for a topping or a dollop on anything. It is a truly versatile yoghurt that can be used as a base for cooking or baking anything, as in the Middle East, as a nutritious snack, a dessert or a pre- or post- exercise food, hydrating the body, restoring minerals, replenishing energy and rebuilding proteins. In summary, produced

by the best, most natural possible, time honoured methods
with the utmost integrity
by a special farming community
in a very special place,
to the highest quality and safety standards,
Distributed and sold with pride and enthusiasm…

This is yoghurt

as it should be. The words “as it should be” hark back to small family farms, pasture based dairy, a time before industrial farming and food processing, and denote a wistful reaction and an effort to bring back that time. Eric Johnson

But it’s so much more! 💯

Because we make it from our hand-strained, double cream yoghurt, it’s high in protein and important micronutrients like calcium and vitamin A. What’s more, it is low in lactose and can be easily digested by those with a lactose intolerance. Some of the potential health benefits of our labneh include improved gut health, and better blood sugar control. And it contains a lot less fat than cream cheese.

Good for your Gut…Good for you! 💪

One of the main benefits in eating a superior quality, all natural yoghurt is the fact that the live cultures and millions of bifidobacteria in yoghurt play an important role in promoting a healthy digestive system and a healthy gut which ultimately leads to a healthy body.

Interestingly it is also possible to use a bit of plain, natural yoghurt to make even more yoghurt. 🥛

Unfortunately, many yoghurt products available today contain additives like stabilisers, thickeners, preservatives and flavourants. All of these basically “kill” the live bacteria and takes the goodness out of the yoghurt.

So, think about it…if you can’t make yoghurt from the yoghurt you are buying, you’re probably buying the wrong yoghurt.

At Verlorenkloof, we add only live cultures to our fresh, full cream pasture fed milk, creating a thick, creamy, smooth yoghurt with a distinctive, delicious taste. It is yoghurt as it should be.
