Kule naoto is the Maasai sour milk of Kenya. Raw cow milk, sometimes mixed with fresh blood, is left for at least five days in a gourd treated with Olea africana wood. Lactobacillus plantarum is the main lactic bacterium.

At a glance
Kule naoto is the Maasai sour milk of Kenya. Raw cow milk, sometimes mixed with fresh blood, is left for at least five days in a gourd treated with Olea africana wood. Lactobacillus plantarum is the main lactic bacterium. Made in 4 steps over 5 days. The longest step, leave to ferment, takes at least 5 days (Nodem Sohanang F.S. et al. 2026). Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Enterococcus, Lactococcus and Leuconostoc do most of the fermenting.
Kule naoto ferments for at least five days and is sometimes made with blood mixed into the milk. Its main lactic bacterium is the lactobacillus L. plantarum.
Blood-milk kule naotoFresh cow blood is mixed into the milk before fermenting.
Safety
This page records a Maasai practice; it is not a recipe to follow. Kule naoto is made from raw milk, sometimes with fresh blood, and nothing in the process heats them. Enterobacteriaceae were found in 7 of 22 samples; the 15 samples without them were all below pH 4.5. No study we found shows that this souring makes raw milk or blood safe. WHO says most brucellosis cases in the general population come from raw milk and its products, mostly from sheep and goats. It warns against fresh blood and raw milk as a route for Rift Valley fever, which can kill, and says blood and milk should be thoroughly cooked in regions where it spreads in animals. CDC lists Campylobacter, E. coli, Listeria and Salmonella among the germs in raw-milk products, with a higher risk of serious illness for children under 5, adults over 65, pregnant women and people with weak immune systems. CDC says pasteurization removes these germs by heating milk to a high enough temperature for a certain time. The use against diarrhoea on this page is a record of tradition, not medical advice.
