Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place yogurt in a fine strainer set over a bowl, and refrigerate for 8 hours to allow moisture to drain out.

  2. Step 2

    Discard the liquid, and place the yogurt in a mixing bowl. Add the remaining ingredients. Mix well.

  3. Step 3

    Transfer the mixture to a piece of plastic wrap about 10 inches long, and roll it into a log about 5 inches long and 1½ inches thick. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

  4. Step 4

    Serve the cheese with toast, crackers or bread. It is good served as part of a salad accompaniment; arrange chunks on each plate, or spread on small toasts or untoasted baguette slices.

Easy and Healthy: I used Melissa Clark's Creamy Yogurt recipe from this site to make the cheese. Short of time, I just served it in a bowl with the crackers and assorted olives/peppers/curried cauliflower. Everyone thought it was delicious and there was none left by the time dinner was served.
