BEFORE THE FIRST USE
Carefully unpack the unit and remove any packaging and promotional
labels in or on the yogurt maker. Rinse all accessories thoroughly in
warm soapy water, then dry completely.

INTRODUCTION

The Cuisinart Electronic Yogurt Maker takes the guesswork out of
making yogurt at home. Simply mix together ingredients and pour
into the yogurt container, letting the yogurt maker do the rest. You
will love the ready-to-eat chilled results.
Homemade yogurt is a healthy and more economical option to store-
bought yogurt. Not only a great source of protein and calcium, yogurt
also contains probiotics, or good bacteria, that are crucial for a
healthy digestive system.
Either plain or flavored, yogurt is the perfect anytime food to enjoy
alone, with granola or in your morning smoothie. Yogurt is also a
great ingredient to have on hand in the kitchen for delicious and
moist baked goods, as a secret ingredient to marinades for meat and
poultry, and also the perfect vehicle for soups and sauces.
