I tried this recipe and the starter curd didn't set like in the video. Can someone please help me?
1) I used 3.5% fat milk
2) I boiled the milk as instructed and allowed it to cool to a point where it was lukewarm to the touch
3) I added three (3) red chilies with their stalk
4) I covered this mixture tightly and set aside from 0500hrs to 0800hrs the next day (15 hrs)
When I checked the starter, it was not even close to setting it was just milk with a chili smell.
What am I missing?
Thanks

Did you make sure the stalks were fully soaked too? Maybe try and pin your peppers under the milk. Honestly a purchzsed starter curd is the best way to go. You can even freeze your remaining curd and thaw it at a later date to use as a started for your next batch.
