Frequently Asked Questions About Yogurt barley
How do you make yoğurtlu döğme?
Yoğurtlu döğme is a Turkish yogurt-and-wheat dish made by cooking hulled wheat groats until tender and mixing them with yogurt. Let the cooked wheat cool slightly first, then stir in the yogurt gradually to help keep it smooth.
What is yoğurtlu döğme made of?
Yoğurtlu döğme is made mainly with hulled wheat groats and yogurt; garlic, salt, mint, or herbs may be added. The Turkish word döğme refers to wheat, not barley, so this dish is different from a barley-and-yogurt recipe.
How do you stop the yogurt from curdling in yoğurtlu döğme?
To stop the yogurt in yoğurtlu döğme from curdling, avoid mixing it into very hot wheat or boiling the dish afterward. Let the wheat cool until warm, loosen the yogurt with a little liquid, and stir it in gradually.
Is yoğurtlu döğme served hot or cold?
Yoğurtlu döğme can be served cold or warm, depending on the recipe and regional custom. For a cold version, chill it after mixing. For a warm serving, heat it gently while stirring and do not let the yogurt mixture boil.
Do you need to soak the wheat for yoğurtlu döğme?
Soaking the hulled wheat for yoğurtlu döğme is helpful, especially when the grains are large, because it can shorten cooking time. If you skip soaking, cook the wheat longer and add hot water as needed until the grains are tender.
What can you add to yoğurtlu döğme?
Garlic and mint are common additions to yoğurtlu döğme, though neither is essential. Some versions include chickpeas or other herbs. Add garlic to the yogurt and sprinkle mint on top so you can adjust the flavor to taste.
What goes well with yoğurtlu döğme?
Yoğurtlu döğme works as a light meal or as a side dish. Serve it with a fresh salad, cooked vegetables, or grilled meat; bread is also a common accompaniment. Its cool, tangy yogurt makes it especially fitting alongside savory dishes.
How long does yoğurtlu döğme keep in the fridge?
Yoğurtlu döğme keeps for about 2–3 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate it promptly rather than leaving it at room temperature. It may thicken as it sits, so stir in a little cold water or yogurt before serving.
Can you freeze yoğurtlu döğme?
Freezing prepared yoğurtlu döğme is not ideal because the yogurt can separate and turn grainy when thawed. For easier meal preparation, freeze the cooked wheat on its own, thaw it, and mix it with yogurt shortly before serving.
Does yoğurtlu döğme contain live yogurt cultures?
Yoğurtlu döğme may retain live yogurt cultures if the yogurt is stirred in after the wheat has cooled and the dish is not heated to boiling afterward. Cooking it at high heat can reduce live cultures; the result also depends on the yogurt used.

What is Yogurt barley?
Yoğurtlu döğme is a traditional Turkish dish of cooked döğme wheat—wheat kernels that have been hulled—and yogurt. Depending on the household and region, it may be prepared with a spoonable, soup-like consistency or served thicker, with herbs such as mint for seasoning.
The yogurt’s gentle tang contrasts with the wheat’s soft, pleasantly chewy texture. In Turkey it can be served cool as a refreshing meal in warm weather, or warm as a light soup or main dish; elsewhere, it also works well as a simple lunch. It offers fibre from the wheat and protein from the yogurt, making it more substantial than a plain soup. Keep added oil modest and pair it with a crisp salad for a lighter meal.
