Greek yogurt is all the rage these days, and for good reason! It’s so much thicker and creamier than regular yogurt that it feels almost sinful...but it isn’t. Greek yogurt and yogurt cheese can be a low-fat alternative to cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream or whipping cream. And this is the time of year when we’re all looking to eat a little healthier and a little lighter.
The way the best versions of Greek yogurt achieve that result is by straining out the whey and concentrating the yogurt. This process can take you from somewhat watery plain yogurt, to rich creamy yogurt, to yogurt with an almost cream cheese-like consistency.
The results are well worth the time, but it does take a little time to achieve. And while you’re straining your yogurt, you don’t want: 1) to leave it out on the counter where it might spoil, 2) leave it open in the refrigerator where it might pick up other orders, or 3) strain it through something with holes that are so large that you lose a lot of your yogurt in the process. So how do you accomplish this miraculous transformation, while keeping your dairy product safe and odor-free?
