#13 Fillet of Beef with Gremolata

Tonight I have invited two of my dear colleagues over for dinner. That's right, more guinea pigs! Check out what's on tonight's three course menu:

Since are guests are not salad-lovers, I've decided to start out with a soup instead, going with yesterday's broccoli soup with a twist.

The total cost of this broccoli soup comes down to 92NT.


Greek Yogurt (the easy way)
2 cups of milk ................................38NT
1 cup of yogurt .............................27NT
TOTAL: 65NT


Give the milk a little heat, I usually blast it in the microwave for 30-60 seconds. Be careful not to overheat it though. Then simply pour the yogurt into your milk and mix gently. Place in your electric rice cooker/steamer and cover. Have the setting on "preserve heat" and just let your mixture sit in there for about 2 hours before pulling the plug. Then simply let it rest overnight or up to 8 hours. Remember not to take the lid off during all this time. Finally, your yogurt should be quite firm. You may eat directly or store in the fridge for later (I would recommend to finish the yogurt in 2-3 days).

I think the best time to make yogurt would be right after dinner. With everything timed right, I would be able to pull the plug, go to bed, put it in the fridge in the morning, and come home to freshly made yogurt!
