Yogurt, plain
Unsweetened plain yogurt is fermented milk with a creamy texture and a tangy flavor. It adds moisture and tenderness to baked goods.
Ideal for marinating meat (the acidity tenderizes it), in cold sauces like tzatziki, or as a substitute for sour cream or buttermilk in cakes.

Dairy specifics
Dairy products (milk, cream, yogurt, cheese) have different fat and water percentages. Volume hides these differences; weight keeps sauces, batters, and doughs consistent.
- Fat content shifts density; pick the correct milk/cream/fat level if variants exist.
- For cheese, shredded vs grated vs cubed changes volume—prefer grams.
Does fat percentage matter?Yes. A cup of heavy cream is heavier than milk; swapping without weight alters richness and texture.
Storage & tools
- Refrigerate perishable foods within 2 hours (1 hour if above 32 °C / 90 °F).
- Keep the refrigerator at or below 4 °C (40 °F); cold chain reduces mass loss.
- Cool hot foods in shallow containers so they chill quickly without condensation.
- Use an appliance thermometer to verify fridge and freezer temperatures.
Keep refrigerated and consume by the expiration date.
FAQ
- Can I cook it without curdling?
- Use gentle heat or temper with starch; full-fat resists curdling better.
