How to Make Homemade Chives Green Onions Cream Cheese
- Line a fine-mesh sieve or colander with cheesecloth. Place 1 cup of whole milk yogurt in the lined sieve and let it drain in the refrigerator overnight (or for at least 6-8 hours). This removes excess whey, resulting in a thicker, creamier spread.
- In a medium bowl, combine the drained yogurt, 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives, 1 tablespoon finely chopped green onions, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more chives or green onions for a stronger flavor, or more salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the cream cheese mixture to a small container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Serve chilled on bagels, crackers, vegetables, or use as a dip.
