Boil the vermicelli until tender, drain it well, and let it cool before mixing it with yogurt. For a Turkish-style cold version, season the yogurt with salt, garlic, or mint; soup-style versions are served warm.
Either fine vermicelli or short, rice-shaped vermicelli can work in yogurt with vermicelli. Fine strands blend into the yogurt, while the short pieces keep a more distinct bite; cook whichever kind you choose until just tender.
Yogurt with vermicelli can be either, depending on how it is prepared. A thick, chilled version is served like a meze or side salad, while a more liquid, hot version is made and served as soup.
Yes, Greek yogurt works in yogurt with vermicelli, but its thickness can make the dish heavy. Stir in a little water or milk until it reaches the consistency you want, especially if you are making a soup-style version.
Yogurt with vermicelli can turn watery if the pasta is not drained well or if the dish sits after mixing. Drain and cool the vermicelli before combining it with yogurt, then stir the dish again just before serving.
Yes, you can make yogurt with vermicelli ahead and keep it covered in the refrigerator. The vermicelli may absorb moisture as it sits, so stir it before serving and add a spoonful of yogurt if the texture has become too thick.
Garlic and dried mint are classic choices for yogurt with vermicelli, and fresh herbs can also work. Mix the garlic into the yogurt and sprinkle mint over the dish, or briefly warm the mint in a little oil for a more pronounced aroma.
Yogurt with vermicelli pairs well with grilled vegetables, kebabs, or roasted chicken. Serve the chilled version alongside other meze, or offer the warm soup-style version with bread as part of a meal.
You can reheat the soup-style version of yogurt with vermicelli gently on the stove, stirring as it warms. Avoid bringing it to a vigorous boil, which can make the yogurt separate; the chilled meze version is usually served cold.
Yogurt with vermicelli is a home-style combination found in Turkish cooking, with recipes that vary from household to household. Some cooks serve it cold as a yogurt-based side, while others prepare a warm, soup-like version.

Yogurt with vermicelli is a simple dish found in Turkish home cooking, made by combining cooked fine pasta with yogurt. Depending on the household recipe, it may also include garlic, mint or a little oil. The consistency ranges from creamy and spoonable to a thicker mixture, depending on the yogurt and how much vermicelli is used.
It is commonly served cool, as a light meal or alongside other dishes, especially in warm weather. Yogurt contributes protein, while the pasta provides most of the carbohydrates; the dish is relatively low in fibre. For a lighter version, use plain yogurt and go easy on added oil, then serve it with a fresh salad or vegetables.
