Description

A simple yet delicious homemade labneh made with just two ingredients, perfect for spreading, dipping, or enjoying on its own.


Ingredients

  • 32 ounces plain full fat yogurt
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine grain sea salt


Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, spoon the yogurt and sprinkle the salt over it. Whisk gently until fully incorporated.
  2. Lay a cheesecloth in a bowl, pour the yogurt mixture into the cloth, and gather the corners to secure it.
  3. Hang the bundle over a bowl or pitcher, ensuring the cloth doesn’t touch the bottom, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
  4. After chilling, unwrap the cheesecloth to reveal your labneh. Serve as is or with herbs or oil.

Notes

Use fresh yogurt for the best consistency. The longer the yogurt drains, the thicker the labneh will be.
