What is your favorite snack. For me , it’s always yogurt. Be it savory or sweet. I love yogurt in any form. For me it’s an all year around favorite snack. So whenever , I am super hungry and I crave to binge. Yes, it happens with me sometimes. I always reach out for a cup of yogurt.
In India, setting yogurt at home was a daily routine. But after settling in Dubai, I have never made yogurt. We get many good quality packs of yogurt. But my favorite is Al Rawabi brand. I totally love this brand yogurt due to it rich taste, more like greek yogurt. And also the texture is just amazing.
Making Rose Shrikhand or any Shrikhand is the easiest thing to do in the world. Patience is the key to this recipe as the yogurt has to be drained out of all its liquid for that succulent texture. I usually keep it overnight in fridge in strainer. And on next day, sugar or honey and flavors have to be added. Whip it up nicely and we are done. Sounds easy right. I said so.
For this recipe, I have used pure rose water. Rose essence also can be used. Sweetener choice is yours. Honey or Sugar. For me honey tops my sweetener list. Rose water is transparent and has no color. And I needed to give some color. To get this color, I always use few drops of beetroot juice. I don’t like any artificial coloring. But as I always say, choice is yours. Whatever convenient use it.
