Set of 3 Koukakis Greek Yogurts 1kg
Koukakis – Traditional Greek Thick Yogurt 10% - 1kg
This is the type of yogurt that is "always" in the fridge in Greece. Thick, creamy, with a full flavor – good for both sweet and savory dishes. Koukakis 10% yogurt is made from Greek cow's milk and has a simple composition, making it perfect for cooking: from breakfasts, to sauces, to desserts.
Taste and consistency
Thick, creamy, and distinctly milky. 10% fat gives it a full flavor and a "meaty" texture that holds well on a spoon. This is a yogurt that works as a base – it doesn't disappear in the dish, but builds texture.
