Ingredients

• 2 liters (8.5 cups) whole milk
• 3 large eggs
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons plain yogurt or sour cream

Instructions

Pour 2 liters of whole milk into a large pot and place it on the stove over medium heat. Add ½ teaspoon of salt to the milk and stir gently.

While the milk is heating, crack 3 eggs into a medium bowl. Add 3 tablespoons of plain yogurt or sour cream to the eggs along with an additional pinch of salt. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until well combined and smooth.

Monitor the milk carefully as it heats. When the milk is almost at boiling point and you see small bubbles forming around the edges, slowly pour in the egg and yogurt mixture while stirring gently with a wooden spoon.
