Strawberries with Yogurt Cream

“Clotted Cream” is a a thick cream made by indirectly heating full-cream cow’s milk using steam or a water bath and then leaving it in shallow pans to cool slowly. During this time, the cream content rises to the surface and forms ‘clots’ or ‘clouts’. According to Wikipedia, clotted cream was originally made by farmers in South West England to reduce the amount of waste from their milk. Over time, clotted cream has become so deep-rooted in British culture, that it’s processing is now even a popular tourist attraction.

One favorite British dessert, Strawberries with Clotted Cream is a well-known and loved worldwide. However, clotted cream has a very high saturated fat content. Here’s a version of that recipe with O% saturated fat that you can enjoy minus the guilt! 🙂
