Steps:

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.

Steps:
- In a large bowl stir the salt into the yoghurt.
- Spoon the yoghurt in the center of a piece of doubled cheesecloth or soft cotton fabric (preferably undyed and immaculately clean).
- Pull corners up and tie tightly.
- Suspend from a stationary object over a bowl (to catch liquid).
- Let this hang overnight or about 12 hours.
- When well drained it will be the consistency of cottage cheese.
- Remove from the cloth.
- Store covered in the refrigerator until needed.
- You can mix in fresh or dried herbs, minced garlic, pepper flakes, anything you would use to make an herbed cheese.
- Or you could drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with fresh lemon juice and some cumin and dip pita crisps into it-- The sky's the limit really- so many uses!
- To make Yoghurt Cheese Balls (Labneh Makbus) (a great little appetizer!), drain the yoghurt for 10-12 hours longer.
- Take about one tablespoon at a time and roll it into smooth, round balls and place on a tray.
- Chill until firm.
- This will take several hours.
- After they are firm and slightly dried out, place in a sterile, air tight jar, cover with olive oil.
- Seal the jar and store at room temperature.
- The labneh will keep this way for several months but you will have eaten them all up long before that!
- Enjoy Labneh Makbus cut into halves, drizzled with olive oil and eaten with olives and fresh pita bread.

YOGURT CHEESE - 'LABANEE', IN ARABIC
This recipe provides a great non-fat replacement for sour cream or cream cheese. It will easily keep for a couple of weeks in the refrigerator. We usually make a big batch and use it for a lot of different things, topping for baked potatoes along with the other usual goodies; as a base for dips or creamy salad dressings, something to enhance a gravy or sauce, just as you would use sour cream or cream cheese. We always have some in the refrigerator!

Steps:
- Although the original recipe doesnt call for non-fat yogurt, non-fat works fine.
- Some recipes almost demand a little fat to smooth their texture on the tongue.
- This can be provided by beating a little bit of mayonnaise or olive oil into the non-fat yogurt cheese.
- Its still fat, but at least its cholesterol free fat.
- If you are skinny and dont have to worry about dietary fat, you can use low-fat or whole-milk yogurt, and then you wont have to worry about adding oil.
- Bring 2 quarts of yogurt to room temperature, and stir thoroughly to smooth and break up all lumps.
- Optionally, you can add ½ Tsp salt (original recipe, we usually dont, because we use this for so many different things).
- Line a colander with a couple of dampened paper towels or a clean, dampened, loose weave cotton towel.
- Pour yogurt into the colander, cover with another paper towel or plastic wrap.
- Place in the sink, or in a bowl which is small enough to hold the colander away from its bottom.
- Let drain for about 8 hours for sour cream consistency or for 24 hours for cream cheese consistency; the longer it drains, the thicker it gets.
- If you are a real freak, you can refrigerate the yogurt while it drains, but its not really necessary.
- Yogurt is a living organism; it is cultured in warmth, and it thrives on it (within reason).
- Draining will normally reduce the yogurt by about half for sour cream consistency, or by about two-thirds for cream cheese consistency.
- We normally go all the way to cream cheese consistency and mix in a little low-fat milk if we need it thinner.

YOGURT CHEESE
A delicious, creamy cheese that perks up bagels and sandwiches. Very simple to make and the variations are endless. Try to use a full fat yogurt such as Balkan style. You could easily experiment with many other ingredients such as, chopped olives, fresh herbs or sweet ingredients.

Steps:
- Line a strainer with two layers of cheesecloth. In a medium bowl, mix together the yogurt, salt, pepper and garlic.
- Pour into the cheesecloth lined strainer. Place the strainer over another bowl to catch the liquid, and refrigerate for 1 to 2 days, until all of the liquid has drained off. Empty the drainage bowl occasionally so you can see when the cheese has stopped draining.
- Transfer cheese to a covered container, and store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
