Stop making it with non-fat milk
start using an ice cream freezer
place the frozen yoghurt in the fridge 30 min before serving.

@@@@@ Now You're Cooking! Export Format

Alan's Raspberry Lime Frozen Yogurt

tested, ice cream, alan's, yogurt

3 cups raspberries (12 oz weight or
2 smalll pkgs) makes about 1 cup; puree (7/8 cup+)
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup milk (i used evapored milk)
1/4 cup corn syrup
1 cup vanilla flavored yogurt
zest of 1 lime

In food processor purée the raspberries for about 1 minute or until
smooth. Strain and discard seeds. Set aside. Combine the sugar and
cornstarch in a small saucepan. Add the milk and bring to a boil. Cook 1
minute, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat. Stir in raspberry
purée and corn syrup and zest. Let the mixture cool completely.

Combinethe raspberry mixture and yogurt in a bowl; stir well. Cover and
chill 8 hours. Pour raspberry mixture into a ice cream machine. Freeze
according to manufacturer's instructions.

First attempt was eapourated milk...should try half and half; second was
whole milk...good taste & texture

Notes:
see the orange frozen yogurt recipe and modify use the zest from lime to
replace the orange zest and replace the orange juice with pureed
raspberries.

maybe 1 cup raspberrie puree maybe zest from 1 lime maybe vanilla yogurt

I used 1 cup whole milk 1/4 cup heavy cream and a 750 ml of vanilla yoghurt
in this batch...alas I forgot the lime zest.

I'll confess that I'm puzzled. Why would one want to freeze yogurt at
all?

Frozen yogurt is an ice cream-like dessert. Frozen yogurt stores used
to be very popular, I don't know if they still are. I haven't seen any
around.

i might. i have a couple of marinades that call for a cup of plain yogurt,
and i would prefer to use full-fat. i don't often see it except in sizes
of 16 oz. or more.

It can be a very nice substitute for ice cream - especially when
sweetened by honey or flavoured with fruit.

It makes a nice frozen dessert, that can be low fat and relatively low
sugar.

Frozen yogurt is nice tasting...that's enough reason.

After I answered I wondered if the original question was actually
about preserving it. I never would have thought to freeze it unless
it was for an ice cream like thing.

Yer kidding... I've been stocking up on yogurt when it's on sale and
freezing it for ages... I don't always bother to defrost them, they're good
frozen, but be careful not to buy the ones in the 'reverse/upside down'
containers it won't slide out into your dish. I don't know why some yogurt
companies use those containers, they may look novel but they are very
impractical, even to eat from directly you have to really work to get it all
out. And yogurt containers are getting smaller and smaller, now instead of
8 ozs most are 6 ozs, and I see they have 4 oz containers now, pretty sad,
imagine a 4 oze bottle of beer.

I never did except for Breyers lemon flavor. The rest just sat
in the refrigerator until I ate it. I never bought too much, I guess.
now I just buy Stonyfield Farms plain yogurt. I add slivered
almonds and craisins to it.

Even when I bought fruit on the bottom, I never mixed it up much
if at all.

Wow, 4 oz, that's pretty tiny. Hardly suffice if I'm hungry.

I've been bying Dannon Light & Fit in the 32 ounce container.. costs less
per ounce than in teh small containers but I don't know if it's a savings
since I tend to eat more than 8 ounces, plus Jack loves the strawberry
flavor one. This thread reminded me to have some and there was an unopened
container in the fridge, gave some to Jack and noticed there's a recipe on
the foil inner seal, Corn Muffins.... I hated to type all that so checked
the Dannon web site and sure enough there it is along with lots of nice
recipes.

Mmmmm, this is good stuff, the quart is now half gone, won't have to prepare
lunch today. It's a gorgeous day outside, only reason I'm at the pc is
because my tractors are out for routine yearly servicing or I'd be mowing
(grass is near a foot high from this early spring), I want to be here as
they are supposed to deliver them today.
