Jobneh (Syrian Cheese) image

This cheese is used in a lot of sweets, including katayif and knafa. I am guessing on the prep time and cooking time because I am not sure exactly how long it takes the water to drain because I never timed it.

This recipe was easy to follow and the cheese turned out great. I used it to make a cheese platter and it was a hit with my guests.

I'm not usually a fan of goat cheese, but this recipe changed my mind. The cheese was mild and creamy, and the herbs and spices gave it a wonderful flavor. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The cheese is delicious and the texture is perfect. I love serving it with fresh pita bread and vegetables.
