strawberry frozen yogurt
Just got a bunch of strawberries, so I decided to make some strawberry
frozen yogurt.
Two pints of strawberries cut into pieces and added a cup of sugar. When
the liquid had all leaked out, I used a stick blender to puree it
(leaving little bits).
Since strawberries contain so much water, there was quite a bit of
liquid, so I decided to reduce the water content of the finished product
by making yogurt cheese. I put a quart of lowfat yogurt in coffee
filters, reducing it to two cups. While this was reducing, I put the
strawberry puree into the freezer to get it as cold as possible without
actually freezing.
When the yogurt was ready, I combined it with the strawberries, then put
it into the ice cream maker.
Right now, it's hardening. Tastes really nice. There was actually more
strawberry/sugar puree than yogurt cheese, so it has a lot of flavor,
but the yogurt cheese was thick enough to give it body.
