Team picks from the dairy aisle
With six votes for it, it’s safe to say that the TASTE team runs on Woolies’ double-cream plain yoghurt. What else can we recommend from the dairy (and dairy alternatives!) aisle? Here’s our pick
“I love the smoked Cheddar slices. They’re the best thing on a burger or in a jaffle with onion marmalade.”
– Keletso Motau
“I love the double-cream plain Ayrshire yoghurt – it’s so thick and indulgent. I often use it for a healthy-ish dessert – with fresh strawberries, or with roast stone fruit instead of ice cream.”
– Jeanne Calitz
“The double-cream plain yoghurt is my best. I love a cooling spoonful on a curry, mixed with mayo and white vinegar as a coleslaw dressing, or just drizzled with honey as a snack.”
– Kelly Cloete
“The coconut yoghurt is fab with chopped pineapple and eaten with my hake curry on page 20.”
– Abigail Donnelly
“The smooth ricotta feels lighter and a little more virtuous than cream cheese in tarts and cakes.”
– Kate Wilson
“The cultured coconut is a new favourite! I discovered it when I made my coconut-and-strawberry fool (see p 86). It’s amazing and it beats the other sweetened cultured coconut on the market. Also, I love it because it’s dairy-free!”
– Khanya Mzongwana
“I love the cultured cream crème fraîche in scrambled eggs or as a dip for sweet potato chips.”
– Katharine Pope
“Feta cheese is a staple in my fridge. I use it for salads, omelettes and as a snack with crackers.”
– Annzra Naidoo
