Fresh Milk Kefir Grains (30 g)

Fresh, active dairy kefir grains, ready to use straight away. Kefir is a tangy, lightly fizzy fermented milk drink, made by culturing milk with kefir grains. Look after your grains and they'll keep making batches again and again.

What you get

• 30 g fresh dairy kefir grains

How to make your kefir

• Put the grains in a clean glass jar and add about 500 ml of milk.
• Cover with a cloth and elastic band, and leave at room temperature out of direct sunlight for about 24 hours.
• Strain through a plastic sieve. Keep the grains and enjoy the kefir.
• Leave it for longer than 24 hours and the kefir starts to separate, with whey water appearing. The longer you leave it, the more whey you'll get. Pour it through the sieve to separate the whey, and keep it for baking and other cooking, or drink it raw.
• The longer you leave your kefir, the thicker it will be once the whey has been sieved off.
• Return the grains to the jar with fresh milk and start your next batch.
• To take a break, keep the grains covered in milk in the fridge.
