cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Line a fine mesh sieve with two layers of cheesecloth to make the curds.

Heat 2 cups of whole milk and 1 cup of buttermilk in a pot until just below boiling, being careful not to let it boil over.

Let the milk curds drain in the sieve for over 12 hours to remove excess liquid.

Beat 3 egg whites in a mixing bowl until they form stiff peaks.

Mix the drained curds with the beaten egg whites and other ingredients (not specified in the transcript).

Roll out the puff pastry to prepare pie shells, using either store-bought or homemade pastry.

Divide the puff pastry into six pieces instead of eight for four bases and four tops, adjusting as necessary to maintain layers.

Place the pie shells in the oven and bake until puffed up, checking for doneness.
