Related: About this forumHow can I use up yogurt?
I recently bought a quart of local, Amish-made whole-milk yogurt. This seemed like a good idea at the time, but the yogurt is a bit gamey, in that you can pretty much taste what the cows were eating, and what they were eating was in the onion family. While I'm all for naturally pastured cows, I'm not going to eat this yogurt for breakfast. I've used up a cup of it to make biscuits and am looking for something else to make with it that will disguise the taste.

I sympathize, I grew to loathe milk when I was a kid since I turned lactose intolerant at about 5 years old. When it was ramp season in the south, it became even worse and no amount of chocolate powder could disguise the funk. On good days, my mother would leave the kitchen long enough to get it down the sink. On bad days, I had horrible diarrhea in school.
