Greek yogurt is a yogurt that has been
strained to remove most of its whey, resulting in a thicker consistency
than unstrained yogurt, while preserving yogurt's distinctive sour
taste. Like many types of yogurt, strained yogurt is often made from
milk that has been enriched by boiling off some of its water content, or
by adding extra butterfat and powdered milk. In Europe and North
America, it is often made with low-fat or fat-free yogurt. In Iceland a
similar product named skyr is produced. Image result for ingredients for
