Nowadays, many parents give their children various supplements since childhood in order to keep up with them at the starting line. Yogurt is even more popular because it is said that it can help everyone supplement nutrients such as calcium and protein. It has become a must-have drink for the family. So can yogurt be heated and drunk in winter? How much can you heat the yogurt? Let’s take a look. Can yogurt be heated and drunk in winter?
Yogurt can be heated and drunk in winter.
It is okay to drink yogurt after it is heated, but all the bacteria, including beneficial lactobacilli and other miscellaneous bacteria that may be contained, are killed and a little bit of the vitamins produced during the fermentation process are lost. Regardless of this loss, you can still drink it. The protein and calcium in the yogurt will not be lost after heating for a while. But you should pay attention to the safety of heating. The yogurt cup cannot be heated directly in the microwave oven. Just soak it in hot water for a few minutes. The degree to which the yogurt is heated has no effect
It is generally not recommended that you heat yogurt. The most important yeast in yogurt cannot withstand high temperatures. Yeast generally grows rapidly at 20°C to 30°C, and the best temperature for fermentation is around 40-42°C. The highest temperature that yeast can generally withstand is 55 to 56°C. Above this temperature, yeast will stop activity and be killed. Therefore, even if we want to heat yogurt, we cannot heat milk by directly boiling it in a pot or heating it in a microwave oven. What should I do if yogurt is too cold to drink in winter
It doesn’t matter if the yogurt is kept at room temperature and it doesn’t need to be too cold. I usually make the yogurt myself and put it in a slightly colder place in the kitchen when I drink it. Leave it on the heater for about 20 minutes. The yogurt consumed in this way is more suitable for the body temperature and is particularly comfortable. But you can also heat yogurt. The best way to heat yogurt is to soak it in warm water. Just soak the yogurt in warm water around 45°C to relieve heat. You also need to pay attention to the heating time. If the time is too long, the yogurt will continue to ferment, causing the yogurt to be overly acidic and affect consumption. How to drink yogurt correctly after cold weather
When drinking yogurt in winter, just like many people still eat ice cream, you can drink it directly. If you feel that the entrance is too cold, you can put it in room temperature or warm water to let it warm up. , pay attention to the temperature not exceeding 40℃, and the time should not be too long. Remember not to put it in the pot to heat up! Special reminder is that the elderly and children have poor digestive systems. In order to avoid over-stimulation, the yogurt can be slowly heated to about 20°C. This will not affect the taste and quality of the yogurt.
