Frequently Asked Questions About Semi-skimmed yogurt whey
What is semi-skimmed yogurt whey?
Semi-skimmed yogurt whey is the thin, often tangy liquid that separates from yogurt made with semi-skimmed milk. It is not the same as whey protein powder, which is a concentrated product made from whey.
Can you drink semi-skimmed yogurt whey?
Yes, you can drink semi-skimmed yogurt whey if it is fresh and has been stored safely. Its tart taste can be strong on its own, so you can dilute it with water or blend it into a smoothie.
Is semi-skimmed yogurt whey the same as buttermilk?
No, semi-skimmed yogurt whey is not buttermilk. Yogurt whey drains off yogurt, while traditional buttermilk is the liquid left after churning butter; cultured buttermilk is made by fermenting milk.
How can you use semi-skimmed yogurt whey in cooking?
Use semi-skimmed yogurt whey in place of some of the liquid in soups, sauces, or batters. Its acidity adds a mild tang, so start by replacing only part of the recipe’s water or stock.
Can semi-skimmed yogurt whey replace water in bread dough?
Yes, semi-skimmed yogurt whey can replace some of the water in bread dough. It adds a slightly tangy flavor, but the dough may need small adjustments because whey’s acidity and consistency differ from plain water.
Why is semi-skimmed yogurt whey separated from the yogurt?
Semi-skimmed yogurt whey separates naturally when yogurt sits, or when it is strained to make a thicker yogurt. Stir it back in for a looser texture, or pour it off and use it in cooking.
How should semi-skimmed yogurt whey be stored?
Keep semi-skimmed yogurt whey in a clean, sealed container in the refrigerator and use it promptly. Do not leave it at room temperature for extended periods, and discard it if it develops mold or an unpleasant, unusual odor.
Can you freeze semi-skimmed yogurt whey?
Yes, semi-skimmed yogurt whey can be frozen in a sealed, freezer-safe container. Leave room for expansion; after thawing, it may look separated, so stir it before adding it to a recipe.
Does semi-skimmed yogurt whey contain lactose?
Yes, semi-skimmed yogurt whey can contain lactose. Fermentation reduces some of the lactose in yogurt but does not necessarily remove it, so people with lactose intolerance may still react to it.
Can semi-skimmed yogurt whey be used in smoothies?
Yes, semi-skimmed yogurt whey works as a tart liquid in smoothies. Blend it with fruit and other ingredients to soften its sharp flavor, and use it while fresh and properly chilled.

What is Semi-skimmed yogurt whey?
Semi-skimmed yogurt whey is the thin, tangy liquid that separates from yogurt made with semi-skimmed milk, either as it stands or when it is strained. It is lighter and more fluid than yogurt, with a gently sour, refreshing taste. Depending on local cooking habits, it can be sipped, stirred into soups, or used in bread and other baking in place of some of the liquid.
It is low in calories and provides calcium and phosphorus, but it is not a concentrated source of protein. If you have some left over, add it to a soup or dough; its tartness works well with mild, savoury ingredients.
