How To Make Dahi Without Khatta or Starter, Also Known As Jamun?

Highlights
  • Curd is one of the most versatile dishes one can bring into use
  • This lip-smacking dairy product has many health benefits to offer too
  • Most Indian households generally prefer making dahi than buying

Curd, also popularly known as dahi is one of the most versatile dishes one can bring into use; from raita, to dahi ke kebab, dahi bhalla, lassi, Srikhand to dips and so much more. This lip-smacking dairy product has quite some health benefits to offer as well. It makes for an amazing probiotic that consists of helpful carbohydrates, proteins and other nutrients that help boost immunity. Most Indian households generally prefer making dahi than buying from outside, considering nowadays it may not be as pure and creamy. Ideally, dahi is made using starter or khatta, also known as jamun, which is a small portion of dahi that is used to make a larger quantity of it. There are times when you may forget to store some jamun or just run out of it, it becomes difficult to start all over again.

There are times when you may forget to store some jamun or just run out of it to store the curd.

We have an amazing way to tell you how to make dahi without the starter.

All you would need is

-Boiled milk
-Green chili
-Red chili

Here’s how using these three ingredients will help you make dahi.

1. Rinse and remove the stem from chilies; in fact you would only need the stems and not the chilies.

2. Bring the milk to boil and add the stems in it and stir them well.

3. Now pour the mixture in a glass jar.

4. Culture the milk in a dehydrator or simply a microwave, where it ideally gets fermented.

5. You may have to check frequently as the culture in this case may happen more quickly than the conventional yogurt making.

6. You will see milk turning into a gel-like form. You can remove the stems and keep it in the refrigerator to give it a proper form.

Here’s a simple method of preparing yogurt culture or jamun to make curd at home by Culinary Expert and Food Blogger Chef Reetu Uday Kugaji.

Chef Tips

1. Ensure that you do not add more than two teaspoon of starter curd prepared with lemon while setting the curd.

2. You may prepare starter curd using the same method as for lemon juice by replacing the lemon juice with 02 green chilies with stem or 02 Dried Red chilies with stem. Method remains the same. Do not remove the stem of the chilies.
