My son donated a 1-1/2 qt ice cream maker to the household a couple years ago. I didn't use it (for reasons unknown) until a couple months ago. I made French vanilla ice cream, which was good. But the revelation to me was how simple it is to make frozen yogurt. I've made several in the past week. They come together in about 5 minutes and from there it is just the time in the ice cream maker to finish the job. OMG -- this stuff (home made) is really good! Following are some of the reicpes I made. Starting with the chocolate(made last night).
I replaced half of the evaporated milk with 1 C half and half. It would have benefitted from reducing the sugar to 1/2 C only and/or replacing the semi-sweet chocolate to bittersweet. It was still exceptional nonetheless.
The lemonade frozen yogurt was good just as it was. But, the next time I'm going to make candied lemon peels and add to the mix. It is a perfect palate cleanser.
Over the next two weeks I plan to make the Banana Mango Frozen Yogurt, only I plan to make mine coconut-mango since I'm not crazy about bananas and my husband won't, absolutely won't try the fozen yogurt. I'll do that by replacing the 2% milk with coconut milk. Perhaps I'll add about 1/3 c crushed pineapple and make it Pina Colada Frozen Yogurt. And lastly, Cinnamon Pear Frozen Yogurt. All recipes found on the website under Recipes for Frozen Yogurt.
But some US artisanal producers are making sheep milk and goat milk yogurts. I thought Vermont Buttr & Cheese Co. made a goat yogurt, but I don't see it on their Website now. They do make fine dairy products from cow and goat, though, and happily, make enough that tiny quantities make it to specialty shops outside New England.
