Method

Labneh

Take a clean mixing bowl and a very clean cloth. A tea towel is ideal but it could be muslin, bed sheets or a beach towel. Lay the cloth flat and over the bowl.

In the tub you bought it in, mix the yoghurt with the salt. Then empty it into the middle of the cloth in the bowl. Next, collect the four corners of the cloth and bring them together
