I was suspicious; thought I might pick out a crab or something. The girl has a keen sense of humour. As usual, she surprised me. I was the privileged first to dip into the bag and I got a beautiful white platter with eye catching black artwork on it. I had seen it and admired it on her blog not a long time ago.

I have tried many of your recipes and they have been absolutely fantastic! Love the pictures too! I am going to try this recipe, but I need to know what is hung yogurt?
Hi Stacie, It’s yogurt that is left in a sieve or hung in cheesecloth to remove the watery whey. You could use Greek yogurt if you like. Hope this helps!
I am slowly warming up to the idea of caramel after making dulce de leche. Your tart looks so, so good! Loved the simple, but classy garnish you have used, beautiful!

You won me over at deep dark salted butter caramel…
Hi Deeba,
When you say 1 tin condensed milk, do you mean 200g or 400g ?
Hi Aarti, 400g
Lovely pics… I am drooling..
Can you please provide the measurements in cups? I can’t make out how much is 350g of hung yogurt or 150 g of regular yogurt, or anything else in gms. So much used to measuring with spoons :-/
Hi Trupti,
Just go with 400g store bought thick yogurt like Nestle. Don’t hang etc. Just use as is
