How to Make Yogurt Cheese
- Line a fine-mesh strainer with two layers of cheesecloth. Place the strainer over a large bowl, ensuring the strainer is suspended 2-3 inches above the bottom of the bowl.
- Pour 4 cups of plain Greek yogurt into the lined strainer.
- Cover the bowl and strainer tightly with plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for at least 24 hours, or up to 4 days, periodically pouring off the accumulated whey.
- The longer the yogurt drains, the thicker and creamier your cheese will become.
- Once drained, your yogurt cheese is ready to use! It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 9 days.
