Notes
The calorie count shown is for a 100-gram serving.
1 liter of yogurt yields approximately 400 ml of hangop. This makes 4 servings of just over 100 grams if the hangop is the main ingredient. Are you serving the hangop like a scoop of ice cream, with thin crêpes, for example? In that case, allow 6 to 8 servings per 1 liter of yogurt.
Equipment: thin kitchen towel (and optionally a second towel), colander or sieve, container or bowl to catch the liquid.
