Crockpot Yogurt -
I often make this using the recipe on this website. You might like it. She cooked in her crockpot every day for a year. AND she lists things that can be cooked in a crockpot that I never would have dreamed of! Here is the index with all her recipes - including how to make candles in a crock pot!

Great links, ty sunnny. I may just have to try the yogurt. It makes so much though. I'll have to ask my neighbor if she likes it . . .

You can make great applesauce in the crock pot: put in your peeled cored apples, you don't need to cut them small, add cinnamon (or other sweet spices) if you wish and leave it on low for overnight.

If you prefer apple butter then just put it on warm when you are at the apple sauce stage...at day's end you will have apple butter.

I have sometimes made apple-pear sauce.

Sometimes I add raisins at the start for a nice change... and sometimes I soak said raisins in a bit of rum first.

I basically made this with Korean pears and apples tonight! You are reading my mind... scary! (I often use a rice cooker for the same thing. However, it cooks faster and hotter and has to be watched more closely, but I'm cool with that).

It is a lovely mind and I enjoyed the privilege.

I make yogurt in My oven at least once a week now (sometimes on the warming shelf behind the woodstove, come wood burning season). I'll have to try the crockpot method to see which of the three is most effective (warming shelf is cheapest, since I'm not using gas or electricity to produce the heat, but it's harder to keep a stable temp without frequently checking it). My goal is to find a method that can maintain a constant 110*F without alternating ON and OFF heat source during incubation.

Seriously, anyone who loves yogurt should be making their own. It's VERY EASY, no matter what method you use. No additives, just heated/cooled milk and a little leftover yogurt stirred in once it has cooled to 110*F. Keep the incubation temp at about 110*F for 4-6 hours.

P.S. If you are making the apple butter mentioned by someone earlier, you can stir some into your yogurt. That's My current favorite fruit-yogurt combo.

Pleasure.

I actually don't always make as much as she suggests. But I do eat a lot of it. Being lactose intolerant, there aren't a lot of dairy things I can have, and yogurt is the one that wins! (Plus it makes great smoothies!)

Yogurt keeps well for several days in the fridge. By then you will have eaten it all and will have just enough left to start a new batch. Keep in mind yogurt is used in some Indian food recipes and smoothies, etc., so if you like making those you will probably find yourself needing to make bigger batches of yogurt.

Moose stew is something else that can be made in a crock pot, which reminds Me, I've got some moose meat in the freezer...

I cook the corned beef in the oven on low for about 3 hours. Some of the unwanted fat will drain away. Then it goes into the crock pot with a dark beer for another couple of hours.

I haven't used one myself, but have you considered getting a NuWave magnetic induction cook top? They are about $100. You actually do set the target temperature you want rather than constantly checking with a thermometer. One "drawback" is that you do have to use iron or steel cookware. Aluminum pots and pans won't work with it. http://www.nuwavecooktop.com/?ref_version=PPC-ADCENTERPN12
