What to keep in mind.
6 tips from the recipe — small details that make a real difference to the final dish.
- 1For the thickest texture, drain Greek yogurt through cheesecloth for 30 minutes before assembling.
- 2Pat berries completely dry after washing to prevent the yogurt from becoming watery.
- 3Toast slivered almonds in a dry pan for 2 minutes until golden for extra crunch and nutty flavor.
- 4Let the yogurt sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving to take off the chill and brighten flavors.
- 5If making ahead, store yogurt and toppings separately and assemble just before eating to keep almonds crunchy.
- 6Use frozen berries if fresh are unavailable—thaw them first and drain excess juice to avoid thinning the yogurt.
