Labneh

Most of us like pizzas because the cheese on them tickle the taste buds and the olfactory system. Some of us have the non stop approval from the brain for any kind of cheese. Cheese plays a very important role in culinary and it has the power to majorly enhance the sensation of food.
Although I like cheese I have never made one myself. I have been to cheese factories where I have seen them made the traditional way and how some cheese are matured in caves.
I stumbled upon a simple method for making my own cheese. What intrigued me here is the fact that this cheese is made from yoghurt rather than milk!
The cheese is called 'Labneh' and is Lebanese. All I had to do is add a pinch of salt to 8z of Greek style yoghurt and wrap it tight on a clean handkerchief. The whey separates from the mix which is left overnight in a refrigerator and is collected in a bowl.
Tada! The soft cheese is ready. It can be marinated in herbal oils and olives but I can eat it simply as a spread over my toast.
I have added a few pictures here.

 

Rechargeable Souls

It feels like its been a long time since I blogged. I have not stopped to enjoy petty things in life like eating,cooking,dreaming etc. I only stopped blogging for a while because I was washed by a sea of other more enjoyable blogs that only today I beached on the shore taking a deep breath to start writing again.
As usual from work I was knackered which took me into thinking ' What if I had a rechargeable duplicate soul'?  I could do with  'two souls' can't I? One to do the morning tasks and another for the evening tasks. As one soul gets tired, the other can jump with to boost my spirits up so that I can remain in motivation and perform well.
Mental tiredness is so common that sometimes I feel my mind has stopped working and is looking at a remote distance to get back into action.
Coming back to the topic, how can I recharge my 'souls'? I don't know. If you stumble upon this article and know the answer you can tell me all about it!  Until then Auf Wiedersehen!
