We all gathered at Publika, Solaris Dutamas and changed into Moo Cow t-shirt. Each of us has different colurs and I got blue, like it. The first stop was at Moo Cow Publika Outlet at the Level UG-7 its just in front of Ben’s Independent Grocer. Yay! Kicked start my day with Moo Cow Strawberry Yogurt drink, we took some pictures at the outlet and then ready to depart to Moo Cow Factory in Segambut.

We were greeted by Mamalia (Moo Cow mascot) when we arrived at Moo Cow International (factory and headquarter). Happy photo time!

So do you like yogurt? If you don’t you better start liking it because yogurt is not only smacking delicious but also burst with goodness for our health. Our body needs to have a healthy amount of ''good'' bacteria in the digestive tract and many yogurts are made using active, good bacteria. One of the words you’ll be hearing more of in relation to yogurt is ''probiotics''. Probiotic, the beneficial bugs that live in our digestive tract and help crowd out harmful microorganisms that can cause intestinal infections. Probiotics is to help regulate our digestion and strengthen your immune system.

Yogurt is a Turkish word, it was said to be discovered by herdsman of Central Asia around 6000 BC. The herdsman preserved their milk through winter and long journey and the natural enzymes in the carrying containers (goat’s stomachs) curdled the milk, naturally making yogurt. In ancient Greek, yogurt is consider “the Elixir of Life”. For the Indians yogurt and honey is called “the Food of the Gods”.

Types of yogurt

There are many types of yogurt, such as plain yogurt (da-hi kefir); strained (Greek yogurt); flavoured yogurt (Swiss yogurt / yoplait); yogurt drink (lassi Ayran or dugh); frozen yogurt (froyo) and yogurt cake. So which one you love the most? Hmmm… I love them all especially the Greek Yogurt.

Are you ready to Learn How To Make Yogurt? After all the presentation, Clifford Too guided us to their factory that manufacture yogurt. I have recorded the process of making yogurt and post it on my youtube, you can watch it in my video above.

Step 1: Cleanliness

Cleanliness and hygiene is very important. We are required to wash and sanitize our hands plus put on a cap, mask and shoes cap before entering the manufacturing area. Inside all the equipment, pots and utensils are sanitized too to prevent contamination. Even if we make our own yogurt at home, cleanliness is also the key to ensure our yogurt turn out

Step 2: Pasteurization

Use fresh milk and warm it till 80C (degree Celcious)

Step 3: Folding

Remove the pot from the heater and wait till the temperature drop to 40C. Fold the milk while waiting for the milk to cool down. Please take note and this is very important - do not stir your milk just fold. If you stir it your yogurt will not turn out successfully. You can refer to my video how Clifford showed us the correct way to fold milk.

Step 4: Culture

Add the Culture / lactic bacteria starters (lactobacillus bulgaricus and streptococcus thermophiles). Mixed it well with folding techniques and avoid stirring.

Step 5: Incubation

Last step is to incubate the yogurt for minimum of 12 hours at incubated at about 40C to maximize the activity of the bacteria. The bacteria convert the lactose (milk sugar) to lactic acid, which thickens the milk and gives it the tangy taste characteristic of yogurt. Then store in chiller for another 24 hours.

our unlimited Moo Moolicious time... eat all we can yummss

Tadah! We have our fresh and plain yogurt. It looks like tao fu fah (bean curd). We get to try the yogurt on the stop. I think I ate quite a lot of yogurt that day. It is just too delicious that I can’t resist. I can feel the richness and taste the real yogurt.

Moo Cow Frozen Yogurt & Yogurt Cheese Cake Price

The plain and original yogurt taste different from the one that I usually buy from the supermarket. This one has the ompphh!!! The aroma of the fermented milk is stronger, the texture is dense and thicker and the taste is sourish and richer. I like the original taste. Then Clifford added blueberry flavour to the yogurt. Well it taste good also, but when we added the flavours the yogurt became bit diluted. I still prefer the original.

Not only that… We also learn how to make yogurt drink. Clifford showed us Moo Cow secret recipe. Can you guess what is inside? Add the secret recipe pack in the yogurt, add water and mix it well.

Tadah! We get our plain yogurt drink. It’s simply delicious!

Actually, making yogurt is not a simple task as we think of. Sometime we try to make yogurt at home but it does not turn out successfully… huhuhu tak jadi. So how? If you want to enjoy the real taste and nutritious yogurt without hassle go to Moo Cow. There you can choose the different flavours and add your own toppings too.

Moo Cow Yogurt Cheese Cake - Peach, Strawberry, Blueberry, Oreo

Time for lunch and more Moo Cow… Wow!!! Look at the Moo Cow yogurt cheese cake… aww we tried the Peach, Strawberry, Blueberry and Oreo. Yummmms.. and creamy. I love the Oreo yogurt cheese cake, it has the more texture with the crunchy Oreo bits. Have you try yogurt cheese cake before? If no you must try, its softer and lighter than the normal cheese cake, you still get the creamy and cheesy satisfaction. Moo Cow yogurt cheese cake is RM13.50 per piece and available in 5 flavours- original, peach, strawberry, blueberry and Oreo.

The baked skin is bigger and its RM13.50 per piece and RM48 per box (4 pieces) with 4 type of flavours to choose from - Precious Black, Pandan Lotus, Low Sugar White Lotus and No Sugar White Lotus.

As usual, I prefer the snow skin mooncake and my favourite Moo Cow Mooncake is the sweet potato; this is something different.

Overall, this was a Moo Moolicious and Mootricious experience for me. Going on a trip with the bunch of sporting and happy Butterfly Blogger are super fun and laugh until my stomach burst.
