Yogurts have always been a part of my daily food. As I mentioned in Back to School Days, school kids used to get a yaourt (the French word for yogurt) served daily in the early 60’s. No additives, no fake flavors, just a plain yaourt nature.
Forgive me for this lengthy introduction. What started me on the Yogurt path was Becks and Posh mentioning Yogurt Saint Benoit. Sounded French to me, I had to find out who they were since I never heard about this brand or seen it on shelves. Yogurt Saint Benoit is named after the Saint of the same name, founder of the Benedictine Monks order.
The company was founded by two French born brothers David and Benoit De Korsak. They bring their love of terroir to this endeavor. The yogurts are made in Bodega on the coast of Sonoma County. The milk and hand made preserves they use come from a local family dairy and organic growers.
Unfortunately, Yogurt Saint Benoit are available only in Northern California.
Two of my current favorite yogurt producers are Liberte and Wallaby.
Feel like baking, Clotilde of Chocolate and Zucchini has a recipe for Gateau au Yaourt.
Bon appetit!
I had some for breakfast on my porridge with maple syrup and it tasted delicious.
You need to persuade someone in your locality to launch a similar endeavour!
