How to make Aloe Vera Yogurt using a rice cooker

Prepare the aloe vera
First, with 1.5kg of aloe vera you purchased, use a knife to peel the skin, then cut the aloe vera into small cubes.
At the same time, soak the aloe vera in a basin of water with 1 teaspoon of salt for about 3 minutes, then rinse several times with water until the slime is gone, and drain.

Cooking Aloe Vera
You place a pot on the stove with 1 liter of water and 120g of rock sugar, then cook over medium heat for about 7 – 10 minutes.

Mixing the milk mixture
