finally, finally somebody has addressed this question. i've been making Greek yogurt for years, but was not sure what to do with the whey and couldn't find much on the internet or even cookbooks, but reluctant to toss it. so i've been using in baking: quick breads, in breads; in soups (cream based); certainly in sourdough waffles and pancakes (wonderful), even snuck into cookies.
question -- how long do you find that the whey will stay in the fridge; and can it be frozen? i make LOTS of greek yogurt, using your wonderful implements, and sometimes fall behind on my whey-use.
thanks so much for addressing this question
It can definitely be frozen. As for how long in the fridge - I honestly don't know for sure. I've kept mine for several weeks - maybe 3? - and it was fine. I'd say give it a smell; if it doesn't smell good, don't use it. Have fun - it's neat figuring out all the ways to use it, eh? PJH
