Yogurt in cakes?

[NotQuiteCockney]

What does this do? I made a pear cake with yogurt in it yesterday, and it came out very well indeed. But I'm just wondering, is the yogurt a humectant? Or what?

Is it yogurt that were keeps your blankets so delightfully moist NQC?

Just wondering

I think my teasing would be more efficient if I could actually compose a sentence properly

Is that meant to be a comedy West Country accent? For Greeny's benefit?

Ooh

yes

yes, indeed it was

Franny, check your email!!!!!

i think the acidity in the yoghurt/buttermilk interacts with the raising agent, which makes the end product light and fluffy? The muffin book has something on this.

Greeny you besom if you have something urgent to say to me, next time PHONE ME
