HOMEMADE LABNEH (THINK SOUR CREAM)



Homemade Labneh (think Sour Cream) image

This is a Middle Eastern item made from strained yogurt. That's it! With strained plain full fat yogurt, you can make several items, and the item I am going to concentrate on is soft labneh which is basically sour cream. I have it from a good friend that has made this and it is a very close to sour cream. As my friend states "Can't have Mexican night without sour cream." I made this on 6 June 2017, and soft labneh is very close to sour cream, it is excellent and will be my Go-To recipe for sour cream. This makes about 800 g (28 oz) of sour cream.

Categories     Condiment

Time 8h10m

Number Of Ingredients 2

8 containers plain yogurt (135 gram (4¾ oz) each)
pinch salt (optional)

Steps:

  • For the yogurt, use plain, unflavored, full fat yogurt, NOT Greek yogurt. I used 2 packages of 4 containers each of Dutchie Original Yogurt, each container is 135 grams, so in total I used 1,072 grams of yogurt.
  • Line a sieve with 2-3 layers of cheesecloth. Place the sieve on a large bowl. Add the salt, if using, to the yogurt and stir until smooth. Pour into the prepared sieve.
  • Gather the edges of the cheesecloth together, twist and tie securely with string or a plastic clip and hang it above a bowl or let it just in the sieve. Cover the top of the bowl & sieve with plastic wrap.
  • Place this into the fridge to allow the whey to drain out. How long you let it drain will determine what particular style of labneh you are making.

LABNEH (LEBANESE CREAM CHEESE)
