👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Preheat oven to 150°C (300°F).
💡 전문가 팁: A moderate temperature is key to prevent curdling.
2
In a bowl, gently whisk together the strained yogurt, 4 tablespoons of honey, and vanilla extract (if using) until well combined. Be careful not to overmix.
💡 전문가 팁: Using a good quality, thick yogurt is essential for texture.
3
Pour the yogurt mixture into individual ramekins or a small baking dish.
4
Place the ramekins/dish in a larger baking pan. Carefully pour hot water into the larger pan to create a water bath (bain-marie), ensuring the water comes halfway up the sides of the ramekins/dish.
💡 전문가 팁: The water bath ensures gentle, even cooking and a creamy texture.
5
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is just slightly wobbly.
💡 전문가 팁: Do not overbake, as it will become rubbery.
6
Carefully remove the ramekins/dish from the water bath and let them cool to room temperature.
💡 전문가 팁: Allowing it to cool helps it set further.
7
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
💡 전문가 팁: Chilling is crucial for the final texture.
8
Before serving, drizzle generously with extra honey and sprinkle with chopped walnuts.
💡 전문가 팁: Serve chilled.
