Questions about Low-fat yogurt

How do you stop low-fat yoghurt splitting when you add it to curry?

Take the curry off the heat and whisk a spoonful of its sauce into the yoghurt first. Stir the thinned yoghurt back in gently; avoid boiling the curry afterwards.

Can you use low-fat yoghurt instead of cream in soup?

You can use it for a tangy finish, but it may split if boiled. Take the soup off the heat, let it cool briefly, then stir in the yoghurt just before serving.

What can you make with low-fat yoghurt for a quick breakfast?

Stir it into overnight oats with fruit, or spoon it over porridge once it has finished cooking. Add nuts or seeds for crunch.

How should you store low-fat yoghurt after opening?

Keep it refrigerated at 5°C or below, as advised by the Food Standards Agency. Use a clean spoon and follow the tub’s instructions for how long it keeps once opened.

Can you freeze low-fat yoghurt?

Yes, but thawed yoghurt can turn watery or grainy. Thaw it in the fridge, whisk it smooth and use it in a smoothie or cooking rather than expecting its original texture.

How do you make raita with low-fat yoghurt?

Mix it with grated cucumber, chopped mint and a pinch of cumin. Squeeze excess water from the cucumber first so the raita stays thick; serve it alongside curry.

Does low-fat yoghurt have more protein than a low-fat yoghurt drink?

Yes. Low-fat yoghurt has 5 g of protein per 100 g, compared with 3.6 g in a low-fat yoghurt drink.
