These delicious treats are so easy to make yourself. All you need is yogurt, time, and good olive oil. The last for months in the fridge, and are great to have around for snacking and for adding to recipes.
Place the yogurt in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and hang over a bowl.
At room temperature, allow the excess water to drip for anywhere from 24 to 48 hours (depending on how sour you prefer the final product).
Using wet hands form the solids into tablespoon sized balls. If the labne is too soft to make firm balls, you can leave it in the refrigerator for an hour to set up.
Loosely fill a quart size container with the balls, and them add good olive oil to cover them completely.
They are ready to eat right away, and can be stored in a cool dark place, or in the fridge (the oil will solidify but that is ok), for at least a month.
Recipe Note
Variations & Ideas:
Add some optional herbs to the oil like thyme or rosemary
From Christian: Try rolling the balls in Za'atar, Galil N.13, or Chios N.27 before covering them in oil. Shake off any excess and then cover them with oil. You'll also end up with a delicious infused oil once you've eaten them all.
You can also use the leftover whey in smoothies or in baked goods. It will keep for a few days in the fridge if you don't need it right away.
