Why hung curd in making cheesecake?
Curd can be used widely in Indian cooking as it acts as a meat tenderiser, a souring agent and also a base for curries.
But cooking with curd can be challenging sometimes. It may curdle if it’s cooked on high heat so always add it in the last, lower the flame whenever you want to add it in curries.
Therefore i always love to substitute curd wherever I can as this makes the dish smooth and thick.
In making Bread pastry and Mix fruit pie recipes, i have used hung curd instead of cream cheese.
Few years back this recipe was shared by a talented member Bejaya Sinha, and I loved all the flavours in this mini cheesecake, so decided to share it on my blog.
