I still got a bit of homemade yoghurt left in the fridge.
Gotta make a plan

 

[ZCook]

I have a couple of batches too plus my usual fat free bought Greek. I'm not usually a fatfree dairy person but this particular one is really excellent for so many things.

A bit like greek yogurt?

A bit like greek yogurt?

That is full fat Greek yoghurt straining for 24hrs. Its a sharp tasting cream cheese, I suppose. The question is, what do I do with it (and the whey)?

 

[Morning Glory]

... several ideas and sketches. Some involve aubergine.

I do that a fair bit - really good like that.

Not come up with a use for yogurt whey. A possible souring agent perhaps.

I'm working 6 out of 7 days this week. I probably won't have time to submit anything. I am looking at a pasta dish for next week.

Shanklish?

 

[Herbaceous]

I have a few ideas already! We use yogurt quite frequently around here.

 

[ZCook]

Shanklish?

Takes 1-3 months to mature

I've yet to taste it cooked, that's later, but if the uncooked version is anything to go by, this will be delicious.
