What to keep in mind.
6 tips from the recipe — small details that make a real difference to the final dish.
- 1Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a thicker, creamier texture that holds the berries well.
- 2Pat berries completely dry after washing to prevent watering down the yogurt.
- 3Let the yogurt sit at room temperature for 5 minutes if too cold — it brightens the flavor.
- 4For extra sweetness, macerate the berries in a pinch of sugar for 5 minutes before topping.
- 5Make ahead: prep berries and portion yogurt separately; assemble just before eating to keep texture fresh.
- 6If using frozen berries, thaw them first and drain excess liquid to avoid a soupy bowl.
