Just drain the water and bake! Simple "baked yogurt"

Many people keep yogurt in the refrigerator for breakfast. However, the way to eat it tends to be one pattern, such as sprinkling sugar or honey.

Is there a newer way to eat yogurt? When I was looking at the official website of "Meiji Bulgaria Yogurt", I found the word "Grilled Yogurt". "Drained yogurt" and "hot yogurt" are fairly well known, but what is grilled yogurt?

It seemed easy to make, so I decided to give it a try.

● I made grilled yogurt

There is an easy-to-understand video on how to make it on the site, but I will also introduce the process of making it here. It takes a little time to drain and cool, but the work itself is really easy.

[What to prepare]
1 pack of yogurt Zaru bowl weight Kitchen paper cake mold (or oven bakeware)


[How to make]
Spread the kitchen paper on top of the bowl and open a pack of yogurt on it.


Fold the kitchen paper to wrap the yogurt, put a weight on it (this time using a deep plate filled with water), and put it in the refrigerator. Drain the water for about an hour and a half.



If the yogurt is drained, put it in a cake mold and smooth the surface with a spatula or spoon.




After flattening the surface, bake in a toaster for 20 minutes.


When the heat is removed from the baking, chill it in the refrigerator for about an hour.



The finished baked yogurt hardens firmly and does not lose its shape even when taken out of the cake mold. It looks like cream cheese.


When you eat it as it is, it has a smooth texture like cottage cheese that crumbles slightly. Since it is yogurt, it does not have a habit like cheese, but the richness of milk is rich. It has a strong acidity and a refreshing taste.


You can use it as a side dish with prosciutto, sprinkle it on a salad, or put it on bread. It seems good to use it in the same way as cheese that is not very addictive, such as cream cheese and mozzarella cheese. Since it is not salty, it can be combined with sweets such as red bean paste and jam. There are various arrangements on the official website of Meiji Bulgaria Yogurt, so if you are interested, please refer to that as well.
