Best Cream Cheese Substitutes for Your Recipes
Hung curd is the ideal option to substitute the cream cheese! The creaminess won’t be altered by this easy and phenomenal technique to make hung curd, an ultimate option for a cream cheese substitute.
Ingredients
- Plain yogurt
- Cheesecloth
- A bowl
Instructions
- Stream a cup of yogurt in cloth, and to make the whey separate and drain out, squeeze it tightly and pack.
- Put it on the bowl; you can keep it for the duration you want (You will get thicker curd if you maintain it for a more extended period)
- Inspect after some time; the hung curd is all prepared if you get the desired consistency and complete whey has drained out.
Notes
A single cup of yogurt can produce about half a cup of hung curd after straining for 8 to 12 hours. So you can get 1/3 cup of cream cheese substitute in a single cup if you keep it for two days.
