Can yogurt be heated in a microwave?

Yes.

Place the yogurt in a microwaveable container. Then, you can use medium heat to heat for about 25 seconds. After heating, you can shake the yogurt well. At this time, the temperature of the yogurt will rise to about 25°C, but the lactic acid bacteria in it will still maintain its original vitality and quantity. Yogurt should not be heated for long periods of time. Heating over medium heat for more than 50 seconds will kill some lactobacilli, and the yogurt itself will become very thin and taste bad. Yogurt heated in the microwave needs to be consumed as soon as possible to prevent it from spoiling. How to choose a suitable container for heating yogurt:

Materials: Choose a container that is designed for microwave use or marked as microwave-friendly. These containers are usually made of high-temperature-resistant plastic, ceramic, or glass. Avoid using metal containers, as metal can cause sparks in the microwave.

Shape: Choose a container with a wide opening, which makes it easier to stir evenly and dissipate heat.

Capacity: Choose the capacity of the container according to the amount of yogurt to be heated. Generally speaking, if you only want to heat a small amount of yogurt, you can choose a small-capacity container; if you want to heat a large amount of yogurt, you need to choose a large-capacity container.

Cleaning: Make sure the container you choose is clean and free of food residues or stains.

Safety: Make sure the container is not broken, especially if it is glass, as broken edges could injure someone.
