Labneh

"I grew up eating labneh - a staple breakfast in every Lebanese home and one of my favorite foods ever! The process of making labneh is easier than you might imagine. Season plain yogurt with some salt and strain for 12 hours, or if you want your labneh thick, strain for 24 hours. A versatile dip that can served as a sandwich spread or a dip, served with Arabic bread or even with crackers! The most common way to eat it in the Middle East is scooped up with a piece of Arabic bread or even as a wrap (slather a few tablespoons on Arabic bread or pita bread, add tomato wedges, olives, mint leaves and drizzle some olive oil, wrap it up and serve immediately). If you have never made your own batch, look how easy to make it at home! There are innumerable ways to serve labneh. Just use your imagination and you will find lots of ways to enjoy this delicately tangy dip! Enjoy!"
