yoghurt

Thick cultured dairy

Yoghurt is a variant spelling of yogurt, the thick, creamy dairy product made by fermenting milk with bacterial cultures.

This spelling is more common in British English and in countries influenced by British conventions, while yogurt predominates in American English.

The fermentation process gives yoghurt its characteristic tangy flavor and smooth texture.

I picked up some Greek yoghurt at the shop.
