Labneh — Middle Eastern recipe
Labneh, photographed for the Kitchen Pantri cookbook.

Labneh

Yogurt salted and left to drain overnight in cheesecloth until half its water has run off and what remains is thick, tangy and spreadable — somewhere between cream cheese and very good sour cream. Five minutes of work and a day of waiting.
