Home Made Sour Treat: The Sagada Way

Sagada's  Yoghurt House

A lot of people don't like yogurt because of the sour taste and the icky feelings it gives after eating it,  even though they know that it's very healthy. Kimi told me that Sagada has there own popular home made yogurt and since I'm used to the commercial one (Nestle Yogurt), I was excited to have a taste of it. When we got to Sagada, we finally had the chance to try it out. On the right is there famous yogurt house near the municipal hall. It does not only serve yogurt but also a wide variety of meal from breakfast to dinner and anything in between. It was after dinner so all we have room for in our stomach was desserts. When we got inside, we saw a group of people eating with this huge bones on their table and wondering what it was. We sat a few tables away from them then had a look on the menu. My mom is not a fan of yogurt so Kimi and I are the one's who ordered yogurt. Kimi got the banana and strawberry jam and I got the banana with granola.

Banana and Strawberry Jam

Banana and granola

My mom ordered some of their home made cookies and a cup of coffee. While we wait for our orders, I looked around the parlor and it kinda have a very ethnic environment with all the wooden sculptures. I think I even saw a head of an animal hanging on the wall, not sure it's a cow or something. A few minutes later our order arrive. Of course we took some pictures first before we dig in. I took a taste first of the yogurt first and it was exactly what a yogurt would taste ..... sour , but the difference is that you can also feel the creaminess of it (kind a like a heavy cream). For me, the yogurt itself is too sour to eat as it is. So I tried another spoon with the granola, the granola's are just toasted perfectly with a hint of sweetness, eating it together with the yogurt definetly lessen the sour taste. Then I tasted it with the banana, then altogether. I looked at Kimi and she seems enjoying it too. Took a taste of her strawberry jam and it was a perfect combination. Told her I like her yogurt more than mine. When all the granola and banana gone, I couldn't finish the remaining yogurt not because it is too sour, but also the creaminess of it over powered my taste buds, So I gave it to Kimi (can't remember if she was able to finish it.)

All in all, our experience with their yogurt was great. We will definetly try it again when we go back there.
