Today, I came up with the huge misconceptional topic, I guess. Even I am quite excited to put down this article as my post..
Just without wasting another bit of time, let's get into it.

Topics Included in this post will be:
  • All about Curd
  • All about Yogurt
  • Difference between them in aspect I have researched on
  • Which is to be more preferred.

Basically, Curd and Yogurt are both diary products, only the difference is between their respective method of processes which is explained below..

Curd:- Curd is a diary product which
is obtained by Curdling of Milk.
Now you guys might be thinking what I mean by Curdling....

So... Let me introduce you to its definition→
Curdling of Milk is generally, a process by which a liquid is converted into soft Semi-Solid/Solid form.
But Here, Curdling involves obtaining of Curd by adding edible acidic substance(e.g. lemon juice or vinegar) into the milk.
Curdling can be done in another way that is, by keeping the previously used curd(mostly acidic in nature) and adding it into warm milk. This method is most commonly used in households for making Curd.

{If you are interested in scientific reason behind how Curdling occurs let me know down in the comment section, I will make a separate post for it, for sure}.

Curd is widely known as Dahi in India. Most of the Indians get confused between Curd and Yogurt.

So let us now head to the concept of Yogurt.
Yogurt:- Yogurt is also a diary product 
which is prepared by fermentation of Milk.
You might wonder what fermentation is, right?
So, let's get into it then.

Fermentation of milk is generally, a metabolic process which anerobically coverts sugar into organic acids, alcohol or gases by using bacteria or yeast types.
And here, Fermentation of Milk for producing Yogurt is done by addition of bacteria like Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricusinto.
These bacteria species consumes the sugar in the milk which give rise to lactic acid which ultimately gives us our Yogurt.

Another method used in households is-
  1. Firstly, heat the milk and then put the milk in the oven and oven to be set over medium to high heat generally over 110°F [Or you can use a Yogurt Maker].
  2. Now, after taking it out we need to add yogurt starter(bacteria) into the milk.
  3. Now, just whisk the yogurt into the milk.
  4. Let the yogurt to cool down. 
And there you go, our Yogurt is readyッ
