Instructions

5 steps
1
Place a clean cheesecloth dampened with water over a colander. Place it over a bowl creating a minimum 5 cm high space between the bottom of the colander and the bottom of the bowl.
2
Carefully place the yogurt over the cheesecloth. Use the corners of the cheesecloth to cover the yogurt.
3

Place the contents on the counter away from sunlight and let it culture for 12 to 24 hours at room temperature (it will culture faster at higher temperatures).

4

Once this is cultured and has drained about half its initial weight in liquid, discard the drained liquid in the bottom of the bowl, and transfer the labneh to a clean container. Add the salt and the lemon juice. Mix it well and serve.

5
Save it in the fridge in an air-tight container for up to 4 days.
