💡 Pro Tips

  • Whisk the cornflour with 2 tablespoons of the Greek yogurt first to create a slurry, preventing lumps that form when starch granules clump in high-protein environments.technique2 tablespoons slurry
  • Use room temperature eggs and Greek yogurt because cold dairy proteins don't incorporate smoothly, creating a grainy texture instead of the desired cloud-like consistency.ingredient
  • Check for doneness by inserting a knife in the center - it should come out with just a few moist crumbs, as carryover cooking will continue setting proteins for 5-10 minutes after removal.timing5-10 minutes carryover
  • Place the baking dish in a water bath (bain-marie) to maintain gentle, even heat around 212°F, preventing the egg proteins from overcooking and becoming rubbery.technique212°F water bath
  • Use a 1:4 ratio of cornflour to Greek yogurt to achieve proper thickening without creating a gummy texture from excess starch gelatinization.ingredient1:4 ratio
