Hung curd is one of the most versatile ingredient on hand. You can make a great desert out of it by mixing it with some sugar and some other stuffs. Check out my shrikhand recipe. Believe it or not i make my cream cheese frosting using this, because i cannot find cream cheese in my place. I made this last week because i made a special mango desert using this. So stay tuned for that..

Ingredients:
Method:

Will it not be more sour?
Aarthi
@AnonymousNo it wont, since we are keeping it in fridge, it will not turn sour, unless u use sour curd

How many days should the curd be in the fridge?
Aarthi
@AnonymousJust overnight draining is good. You can store the hung curd in a air tight container for 2 to 3 days in fridge
