Hi all,
Was just watching Market Kitchen - Big Adventure on Good food channel, and they made this 'Labneh' a type of cream cheese. Which is basically strained yogurt.
The recipe used full fat greek yogurt and salt, and thats it. strained overnight to separate the whey.

Having just done some internet research i found one article that said you could do it with fat free yogurt, making it syn free.

I have no idea how it would taste, but its used for sweet and savoury dishes. So there could be a possibility of SW tweaks for it.
I am going to have a experiment when i get some yogurt and see how it goes.

But anyone else tried or even heard of it before??
 
...er I've seen jars of it here from Lebanon, little balls of whiteness in brine - which don't look very appetizing...and some fresh locally made which looks like philly but I just assumed it was hi fat so have steered clear..sorry not much help
