Description
How to thicken soupy store bought yogurt into Greek or Skyr style yogurt.
Ingredients
Scale
1 or more 32 ounce tubs of store bought yogurt. Can be plain or flavored, but not anything with added fruit.
Instructions
- Place your yogurt evenly layered in the mesh basket, and place inside the large, clear, plastic bowl. This assumes you’re using the big 2 pound container of yogurt and not the individual packages.
- Snap the lid in place. Almost immediately the whey will start dripping into the bottom of the bowl.
- Place covered bowl in the fridge over night and remove in the morning to reveal perfectly strained yogurt.
- Place thickened yogurt into a container and pop back into the fridge. I like these glass meal prep containers (affiliate link) that I use for freezing leftovers as well.
Notes
I have written this blog post assuming you’ll use a Euro Cuisine yogurt strainer. (affiliate link) There are others on the market, but I don’t have experience with them. I use this one personally so I feel comfortable recommending them.
