It also works effectively as a tenderizer and flavor enhancer in marinades for meats and poultry, contributing a subtle tang and moisture.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to regular yogurt, Greek yogurt is strained multiple times, which removes much of the whey. This process results in a thicker consistency and a more concentrated, tangy flavor. The nonfat version specifically contains no added fats, making it a lighter option.
