After mentioning the many batches of frozen Greek yoghurt in my post about apple cider ice cream the other day, I figured it appropriate to finally post about the frozen yoghurt itself.
I've made it with both traditional Greek yoghurt and normal plain yoghurt that has been drained of excess liquid and also with both honey and sugar to sweeten. All have been delicious and I really have no preference for any of them over another.
A couple weekends ago I made a batch of sweetened with sugar and topped with honey and pomegranate seeds - that has been, by far, my favorite way to enjoy it.
I can't speculate on whether or not this tastes like any of the commercial frozen yoghurts because I haven't tried any of them, but I imagine that if one likes frozen yoghurt with more than a tiny bit of tang to it than this yoghurt will satisfy that craving.
And it couldn't be easier to prepare.
