Questions about Vanilla frozen yogurt
How long should you leave vanilla frozen yoghurt out before serving?
Take it out of the freezer for about 5–10 minutes so it softens enough to scoop. If it has been stored very cold, give it a few extra minutes rather than microwaving it, which can melt the edges unevenly.
How can you stop homemade vanilla frozen yoghurt from turning icy?
Use thick Greek-style yoghurt, dissolve the sugar fully, and churn the mixture in an ice-cream maker until it is thick and smooth. Without a machine, freeze it in a shallow container and stir vigorously every 30 minutes for the first 2–3 hours.
How should you store vanilla frozen yoghurt?
Keep it in a tightly sealed, freezer-safe tub and press baking paper or cling film against the surface before putting on the lid; this helps limit ice crystals. For the best texture, eat it within about a month.
What goes well with vanilla frozen yoghurt?
Fresh berries, sliced peaches and stewed rhubarb all work well, as do toasted nuts or a crumble of shortbread. For a classic sundae, add fruit and a little chocolate sauce just before serving.
Can you use vanilla frozen yoghurt instead of ice cream in a milkshake?
Yes. Blend it with cold milk until smooth, adding the milk gradually so the shake does not become too thin. It also works in place of ice cream in an ice-cream sandwich, though it softens quickly once assembled.
Is vanilla frozen yoghurt lower in energy than vanilla ice cream?
Not necessarily: vanilla frozen yoghurt has 159 kcal per 100 g, compared with 126 kcal per 100 g for vanilla ice cream. The names alone do not tell you which is lighter.
Does vanilla frozen yoghurt contain dairy?
Usually, yes: it is made with yoghurt, so it contains milk. Some alternatives use plant-based yoghurt, but they are different products; check the ingredients if you need to avoid milk.
