Hung Curd Recipe
Hung curd is nothing but a thick curd from which all its water has been removed. The recipe uses only one ingredient which is homemade curd. I have already shared how to make curd at home in my blog. Curd is a good source of probiotics which promotes good gut health. Making hung curd at home does not require any special skills or tools, just curd, strain and squeeze all the water out. It yields a thick, creamy curd similar to cream cheese.
