Re:Mediterranean yogurt = Greek yogurt? attn Erin

[Guest guest]

I assume so - different places will name it

differently - I buy it at an arabic store, where it's

called lebanese yogurt. I know a bunch of the big

comanies are starting to make it, using politically

correct, non scary names -maybe greek,mediteranian,

thick, whatever

 

it's got the same consistency as sour creme

Right. It's basically strained yogurt. Very good.

And jam packed with protein for the calories!

 

You can make your own with a Donvier yogurt strainer.

I do this quite often. The longer it drains, of course,

the firmer the consistency. Great for making spreads.

Speaking of Mediterranean yogurt, I LOVE tzatziki. Addicted to it.

Does anyone know how to make a dairy-free version? What can I

substitute for plain, non-fat yogurt?

I just use a fine mesh colander lined with a paper towel. Put in the

fridge and let drain overnight.

Plain soy yogurt? Also try soft silken tofu that's been mixed with a

little lemon juice and salt.
