What it is

Strained yogurt is a type of yogurt that has been strained to remove most of its whey. This process results in a thicker, creamier product with a more concentrated flavor. It is made from pasteurized milk and cream, often from cows.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use strained yogurt as a base for dips, sauces, and spreads due to its thick texture and tangy flavor. It also serves as a healthier alternative to sour cream or mayonnaise in various dishes. It is commonly found in yogurt products, particularly Greek-style yogurts.

Health notes

Strained yogurt is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a good source of protein and calcium. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated yogurt and its components. Evidence suggests that moderate consumption of yogurt, including strained varieties, can be part of a healthy diet.

Allergen info

Strained yogurt is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
