Ingredients

Instructions

  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.
  1. Carefully place the yogurt over the cheesecloth. Use the corners of the cheesecloth to cover the yogurt.
  1. 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).

  1. 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.

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