Strained Greek Yogurt Measuring FAQs

How is Greek yogurt different from regular plain yogurt? ▾

Greek yogurt is strained through fine mesh to remove liquid whey, resulting in double the protein density and a thicker consistency.

Can I bake with nonfat Greek yogurt instead of full fat? ▾

Yes, but baked goods will have slightly less moisture retention and tenderness due to the absence of milkfat.
