About Homemade greek yogurt

Homemade Greek yogurt is a creamy, protein-packed staple originating from Greek cuisine. Made by fermenting milk with live cultures and straining to remove excess whey, it has a thick texture and tangy flavor. Rich in probiotics, it supports gut health and digestion. A great source of calcium, it contributes to bone strength, while its high protein content aids in muscle repair and keeps you feeling full longer. Homemade versions allow control of ingredients, avoiding added sugars and preservatives found in store-bought options. It's naturally low in carbohydrates and fats, especially when made with skim or low-fat milk. However, the fat content can rise when using whole milk for a creamier taste. Versatile and nutritious, Greek yogurt can be enjoyed on its own, topped with fruits and nuts, or used in recipes as a healthier substitute for sour cream or mayonnaise.
