How to Make Solid Yogurt

This solid yogurt is ideal for desserts or in a salad.

Recipe By: Tobuchan (https://cookbuzz.com/kitchen/25)
Serves 4-6 Prep: 360 min

Ingredients

Organic yogurt 500ml

Method

1
I used the whole amount of this Yeo Valley tub, it turns into half the weight when you get rid of the whey.
2
Put a colander in a bowl and lay 5-6 kitchen papers in it. Pour in the whole tub of yogurt and fold over the kitchen paper.
3
Fill a small bowl with water and cover with cling film. Use as a weight to put on top of the yogurt and keep in the fridge overnight.
4
You should get about 1 glass of whey (you can keep this for other recipes as it's very nutritious).
5
This is what will be left after it's pressed overnight, it's very firm.
6
You can use in many ways, in a salad or on toast, it's a great texture. Wrap in cling film until ready to use.

Tips & Note

●This is essentially Greek yogurt but it goes a step further to get really solid yogurt. It's almost like a hard butter, so you can really be inventive how you use it

Asparagus. The earth is wonderful because such a delicious food grows here. But even if you want to make something with asparagus, recipes are limited. Asparagus goes great with pasta. It is surprisingly delicious.

Aubergine (eggplant) and miso are a match made in heaven. Cooking thick sliced of aubergine is a bit of hassle, but with a microwave, it's done in 3 minutes. All that's left is to stir fly it with the miso sauce. Translated by Chat GPT

The only effort required is shredding the cabbage. Once you've cleared that, all you have to do is add the sauce and mix well into the cabbage. The result is amazingly delicious.
