BBC - Food - Glossary - 'Y' Yoghurt can be made from the milk of cows, sheep, goats, even mares, camels and female yaks; each has its own flavours and cooking properties. Yoghurt can be used as a replacement for cream or crème fraîche in most recipes.

Welcome to FAGE USA Yoghurt is one of the oldest foods known to man and has been a basic nutritional product in south-eastern Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and parts of the Far East for thousands of years. Nevertheless, the authentic recipe is quite removed from the yoghurt of today: the milk from the cow, the ewe or the buffalo was well boiled (until it lost 30% of its water) and was left to ferment naturally in clay vessels for a period of time. Thus yoghurt came to be considered as a medicine for dealing with the bacteria that cause this specific problem. www.fageusa.com /health_facts.html   (1617 words)

Yogurt Yoghurt Following the "breaking" of the coagulum the yoghurt is concentrated by boiling off some of the water, this is often done under vacuum to reduce the temperature required. This is often called strained yoghurt due to the fat that the liquid that is released from the coagulum upon heating used to be "strained" off in a manner similar to making soft cheese. A traditionally produced natural yoghurt will require no stabilisers to produce a firm, fine gel, however commercially produced yoghurt that has to be pumped, stirred, fruited and filled will often break down to a runny liquid without the addition of stabilisers. www.dairyconsultant.co.uk /pages/yoghurt.htm   (2064 words)

Yoghurt has always been the clichéd dieter's best friend, good for all manner of dips, relishes and side dishes which add interest to plain grilled meats or fish. Strained yoghurt can also be used in place of some of the fat and liquid when making cakes and muffins, stirred into soups and stews and makes a wonderful instant sauce when added to cooked pasta. www.waitrose.com /food/celebritiesandarticles/ingredients/0104064.aspx   (865 words)
