Steps:
- Heat a thin layer of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Toast the bread slices on one side until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes, then flip them over. Top 2 slices with the Cheddar and Parmesan. Spread the other 2 slices with the labneh and sprinkle with a pinch of za'atar and sumac. Carefully sandwich each Cheddar/Parmesan slice with a labneh slice, cover with a lid and cook until the bottom is toasted, about 1 1/2 minutes. Flip, cover and cook until the other side is toasted and the Parmesan and Cheddar are melted, another 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer to a plate, cut diagonally and serve with tomato soup if desired.

Steps:
- For the labneh: stir the salt into the yogurt, then transfer the mixture to a cheesecloth-lined strainer set over a bowl. Gather the ends of the cheesecloth to shape the yogurt into a ball and give it a gentle squeeze. Tie the ends of the cheesecloth into a knot. Tie a few inches of twine to the cheesecloth and suspend it from a small rod or chopstick set over a tall container (make sure the cheesecloth pouch is a few inches above the bottom of the container).
- Place the entire container in the refrigerator to drain. For firm labneh cheese that can be shaped into balls, let sit overnight. (For creamy, softer labneh let it sit only 6 to 8 hours.)
- For the seed and herb coating: after the labneh has drained overnight, mix the sesame seeds, sumac, dried thyme, dried mint, nigella seeds and red pepper flakes together in a shallow dish.
- Oil your hands and shape the cheese into 2 tablespoon-sized balls. Roll each ball in the spice mixture to coat completely and place in a 32-ounce airtight container. Cover the cheese with 2 cups olive oil and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
- Serve with bread, green olives, pickled cucumber, mint leaves, zaatar and red tea.
LABNEH (LEBANESE CREAM CHEESE)
This is the Lebanese version of cream cheese, a lot tastier and lower in calories. Serve on a plate, sprinkled with olive oil, olives, tomatoes, cucumbers and mint. Or simply spread it like cream cheese on pita bread.

Steps:
- Line a large sieve with cheesecloth; set over a medium deep bowl. Place yogurt in sieve. Gather edges of cheesecloth to cover yogurt. Place in refrigerator and let drain for 2-3 days.
- Gently squeeze out any excess liquid; discard liquid in bowl (yogurt will be very thick and resemble soft goat cheese). Roll yogurt into 3/4" balls. Place in an 8-ounce glass jar.
- Whisk oil, herbs, and lemon zest in a small bowl to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Pour over yogurt in jar. Cover; place in refrigerator and let marinate for at least 8 hours and up to 2 weeks.

- Scoop the mixture onto a layer of cheesecloth (or 2 layers, depending on the thickness of your yogurt). Bring the edges of the cheesecloth together, tie it around a wooden spoon, and place the spoon across the top of a medium bowl so that the labneh hangs in the center but does not touch the bottom of the bowl. Chill overnight.
- Remove the labneh from the cheese cloth. Transfer to bowl and serve as a spread with desired toppings and veggies, pita, or crackers for dipping. It can also be dolloped, like soft goat cheese, onto salads, pizza, or flatbread.

- Spread it on toast for a zingy morning treat. Add mashed avocado and a sprinkle of flake salt for a breakfast with great taste and satisfaction staying power.
- Connect with labneh's Middle Eastern origins by using it to top warmed pita bread, drizzling it with good-quality olive oil and dusting with a Lebanese spice blend.
- Make a labneh sandwich, adding leftover grilled meat or fish, mint leaves, chopped olives and a shake or two of za'atar, a spice blend made from thyme, sesame seeds, and ground sumac powder.
- Mound finished labneh in a bowl, then use the back of a spoon to make a swirl pattern on top. Pour on a generous splash of good-quality olive oil and add a sprinkling of Dukkah, the spice blend made with hazelnuts, sesame seeds, coriander, and cumin.
- Let the yogurt drain until it's fairly firm, then roll into little balls, sprinkle with chopped herbs. Arrange on a platter and you've got a standout appetizer, called "labneh korat" or "labneh makbouseh" in Lebanese (If you're planning on serving these at a party, it's a good rule of thumb that each quart of yogurt will produce about six ounces of labneh).
