Bangladeshi Mishti Doi
Sweet fermented yogurt from Bangladesh, made with reduced milk, sugar, jaggery, and plain yogurt as the starter.
In this version of mishti doi, the milk is reduced before being sweetened with sugar and jaggery. It is then mixed with plain yogurt and left undisturbed in a warm place to set, traditionally in clay pots. Serve chilled.
