Steps:

  • Line a large colander with a cheesecloth. Stir salt into the yogurt, and pour the yogurt into the cheesecloth. Set the colander in the sink or bowl to catch the liquid that drains off. Leave to drain for 24 hours.
  • After draining for the 24 hours, transfer the resulting cheese to a bowl. Stir in the olive oil. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator.

YOGHURT CHEESE (LABNA)

This cheese (also labaneh) originates in the Middle Eastern countries and is usually made with goats milk. This give quite a sour cheese so cows milk yoghurt is more to our Western palate. Allow up to 48 hours. From 500mls expect about 250gm of cheese. If you won't eat this in a couple of days you will need to preserve it in oil. This can be done by simply rolling the cheese into walnut sized balls and placing in a jar and covering with olive oil.

Steps:

  • Place a sieve over a large bowl. Line the sieve with a piece of cheesecloth or a Chux cloth.
  • Stir your yoghurt well then pour into the cloth in the sieve. Fold the sides of the cloth over the yoghurt.
  • Place the bowl & sieve into the fridge and leave to drain for up to 48 hours. I like to drain the whey every few hours so I can monitor the progress.
  • The cheese is ready when it is not releasing any whey. At this point taste and season with salt, if desired. Shape into a ball/mound.
  • Use as you would any other soft cheese. To serve with dips simply drizzle the mound with good olive oil and garnish with shredded mint.

  • Set a mesh strainer over a large bowl. The bowl should be deep enough so that there are at least a few inches of space between the bottom of the bowl and the strainer.
  • Line the strainer with a fine mesh nylon straining bag (or 2 layers of cheesecloth.) I like nylon bags instead of cheesecloth because they last forever and are so much easier to clean. They can be rinsed and laundered over and over again.
  • Pull the fabric up around the yogurt and twist it tightly so liquid starts dripping into the bowl (you can use a clip if you like to hold it tight.) Place a small plate on top, and then weight it down with a brick or heavy can. Set this in the fridge for 24 hours. Check it once or twice to make sure that it's draining. If not, increase the pressure, and make sure the yogurt is sitting above the liquid. The longer you let it drain, the thicker the cheese will become. It can go up to 48 hours, but usually 24 hours is sufficient.
