GARLIC-HERB YOGURT CHEESE



Garlic-Herb Yogurt Cheese image

White pepper is milder than black, allowing the flavors of the herbs and yogurt to shine, but if you don't have it in your pantry, use black pepper to taste. The whey that drains out of the yogurt is a source of protein, calcium, potassium, and riboflavin. Freeze it in ice-cube trays to blend into fruit shakes and smoothies, or enjoy it (unfrozen) lightly sweetened, over ice.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 8h10m

Yield Makes about 1 1/4 cups cheese and 2 cups whey

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 quart homemade yogurt or store-bought plain low-fat yogurt
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper, or more to taste
Carrots and endive, trimmed, for crudites
Baguette slices, for serving

Steps:

  • Fold a large piece of cheesecloth twice to form a 4-layer, roughly 18-inch square. Place in a sieve set over a large bowl, and spoon yogurt into center. Gathering the 4 corners, tie a piece of kitchen twine just above yogurt to form a tight bundle. Let yogurt (still in sieve over bowl) drain in refrigerator at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.
  • Cut open cheesecloth. Transfer yogurt cheese to a bowl; set whey aside for another use. Stir chives, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper into yogurt cheese. Serve with crudites and bread.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cheeses to create a more complex flavor. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan are all good choices.
  • Add some fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, or thyme, to give the dip a pop of flavor.
  • If you want a spicier dip, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
  • Serve the dip with a variety of dippers, such as crackers, bread, or vegetables.
  • For a fun and easy appetizer, spoon the dip into a hollowed-out loaf of bread and bake it until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

This herbed garlic cheese dip is a delicious and versatile appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it mild or spicy, this dip is sure to be a hit with your guests.
