SHRIKHAND (SWEET STRAINED YOGURT)
Shrikhand is a creamy yogurt-based dessert from western India made simply by straining yogurt and sweetening it. The yogurt is traditionally strained by pressing it between newspaper (to soak up extra whey), but if you can find thick, full-fat Greek yogurt at the grocery store, then the process is even simpler: Hang it in a mesh strainer over a bowl for a day, and let the excess whey drip out. You can substitute slivered almonds for pistachios, if that's more your speed, or even skip the nuts altogether for a smooth shrikhand flavored only with sugar, cardamom and a celebratory sprinkle of saffron threads.

Steps:
- Put yogurt in a fine-mesh strainer suspended over a large bowl, cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge. Let excess whey strain for 24 hours.
- Transfer yogurt to a large mixing bowl, and gently stir in sugar, pistachios, saffron and cardamom. When they are combined, transfer mixture into a serving dish, using an offset spatula to smooth out the top. Evenly sprinkle reserved pistachios and pinch of saffron over the top, and chill for an hour before serving. Shrikhand will keep covered in the fridge for a few days (though the pistachios will soften).

DRAINED YOGURT
Yogurt can be drained of much of its water content, resulting in a thick, creamy product known in the Middle East as labna (or labne). Drained yogurt is like a moist, fresh, tangy cheese (and is sometimes referred to as yogurt cheese), and makes a great spread or dip. In Turkey and the Middle East there are a number of dips and salad dressings that begin with drained yogurt, to which pureed garlic and chopped fresh herbs are added. It's mixed with chopped cucumbers for salads (coming up in these recipes), even mixed with chopped dried apricots for a sweet and tangy dip.
