Method
Preparation Directions
- 1
Strain the Yogurt
In a large bowl, mix the plain yogurt with the sea salt. Line a fine-mesh strainer with cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel and place it over a bowl. Pour the yogurt mixture into the strainer and let it drain in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours, or overnight, until it reaches a thick, creamy consistency.

Serve the Labne
Once the yogurt has been strained, transfer it to a serving dish. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with fresh mint if using. Serve with freshly baked pita bread.
