LEBANESE YOGURT CHEESE WITH ZA'ATAR AND OLIVES
Steps:
- Line a sieve with cheesecloth. If the cheesecloth is loosely woven (most supermarket brands are), use a triple thickness. Pour the yogurt into the sieve, then gather the edges of the cheesecloth and tie into a bag. Hang the bag over the sink or over a bowl to catch the drippings. Let drain for 8 hours.
- Turn the soft, creamy cheese out onto a platter. Season the surface with salt to taste, drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle generously with za'atar. Surround the cheese with the olives and radishes. Serve with the warm pita bread wedges.
LABNEH WA ZA'ATAR (SPICED YOGURT CHEESE)
A tasty spiced cheese similar to cream cheese that can be used as a spread over pita, or with cucumber slices, crackers, chips or whatever you like. This is my own za'atar recipe but if you have your own you can use that instead if you like, since mine isn't all that authentic. ;) (The preparation time includes letting the yogurt drain.)

Steps:
- Pour 2 cups of yogurt into a white flour sack towel or a few layers of cheese cloth, and squeeze out the whey until you cannot squeeze out any more.
- Place in a strainer over a bowl and refrigerate for about 24 hours squeezing out the whey every six hours or so until it forms a ball and is the consistency of cream cheese.
- Toast the sesame seeds in a small frying pan just until they turn golden; remove from heat.
- Mix together the za'atar spices and toasted sesame seeds in a shallow bowl.
- Divide the cheese into 3 sections and roll each into a ball.
- Roll cheese balls one by one in the spices.
- Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with fresh mint. Enjoy!
