How to Make Yogurt Cheese

To start, you’ll need plain yogurt that contains no stabilizers or preservatives. Line a sieve with a cheesecloth or a coffee filter. Set the sieve over a bowl and spoon in the yogurt. Cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Allow it to drain for 3 - 24 hours, depending on the desired consistency. Remove the cloth and transfer the cheese to a container. Cover and refrigerate for up to three days.
