The yogurts

Goat milk yogurt, in three flavours

Set, delicately tangy yogurts made with whole goat milk from our herd. Natural, vanilla and strawberry, in 125 g pots. As far as we know, the only goat milk yogurts produced in Algeria.

Is there goat milk yogurt in Algeria?

Yes. Cabri makes whole goat milk yogurt at its dairy in Laghouat, in three flavours — natural, vanilla and strawberry — in 125 g pots, stocked by fine grocers in Algiers and delivered across Algiers, Blida and Boumerdès. As far as we know it is the only caprine yogurt production in Algeria.

Goat yogurt is a difficult product. Goat milk sets less firmly than cow's milk — the same low αs1-casein content that makes it digestible also makes the curd more fragile. Many manufacturers compensate with starch, milk powder or gelatine.

We went the other way: culture selection and tight control of incubation temperature. It takes longer to get right, but the ingredient list fits in three words.

Three ways to use it

Beyond the spoon.

At breakfast

The natural with honey and dates — honey balances the tang without burying the goat milk.

As a fresh sauce

Whisked with garlic, lemon and mint, natural yogurt becomes a sauce that works as well with grilled meat as with a chorba.

As a marinade

The acidity of goat yogurt tenderises meat better than lemon juice, and without drying it out. Two hours in the fridge is enough.

Goat yogurt — frequently asked

No. The 'goaty' taste people associate with the animal comes mostly from aged cheeses, or from milk that was cooled badly. Yogurt made from milk processed the day it was drawn is mild and gently tangy, and many people do not identify it as goat in a blind tasting.

Yes, but less than the milk it came from: the cultures consume some of it during incubation. That does not make it suitable for people who are genuinely intolerant, who should ask a doctor.

None in the natural yogurt — goat milk and cultures, nothing else. The vanilla and strawberry versions are sweetened and flavoured, but with no colourings or artificial flavourings.

Keep pots between 0 and 4 °C and follow the date shown. Once open, eat within 48 hours. A little whey on the surface is normal — it is a sign of yogurt made without thickeners, not a fault.
