THAT 2 INGREDIENTS VEGAN CHEESE TO LIVE FOR! LABNEH
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Although this is a Lebanese recipe it is very popular in Brazil, it is called Labneh, and it's a very easy cheese made from yogurt and milk that's that! You can enjoy it as a spread or, you can roll them into little balls and marinate it in a herby extra virgin olive oil as I did here! I hope you enjoy it!
INGREDIENTS:
2 liters (67.6 oz) of unsweetened soy milk
400g (14.10 oz) of unsweetened kefir or vegan yogurt or kefir
Optional:
Salt to taste
Dried oregano
Assorted peppercorns
A sprig of fresh rosemary
Garlic cloves
Extra virgin olive oil
Add the vegan milk to a pot, bring to a boil, turn off the heat and wait until the milk is lukewarm (you are supposed to be able to hold your finger comfortably in the milk for 10 seconds.
Add the vegan yogurt or kefir, and stir gently.
Cover the pot, wrap it with a towel and place it in the oven (turned off) for 24 hours.
Remove the pot from the oven, place a double cheesecloth or a clean tea towel in a sieve then place a sieve in a bowl on top of another plate so the sieve gets elevated and the drained water doesn't touch the cheese.
Squeeze the cheesecloth so it drains water faster, then put a cling film or silicone mat on top of the cheese, place some weight on top of the cling film, put it in the fridge for 2 or 3 days, until it drains completely and firms up to a point you can roll it in your hand and form a ball. You might need to remove the drained water from the bowl from time to time so keep an eye on it.
When the cheese is ready and drained out of the water, transfer it to a smaller bowl, add a pinch of salt (optional), mix to combine, and proceed to make the labneh balls:
Put some olive oil in the palm of your hand, scoop a small amount of the cheese, roll into a ball, place it in a jar, then add extra virgin olive oil, add the herbs of your choice, and some garlic.
Alternatively, if you don't want to make labneh balls, you can enjoy the cheese as a spread, just add some salt to it when the cheese is ready and drained, mix to combine, and enjoy!

Ehhh!!! let us know! Muah!
Chef Jana. You're not only a vegan chef, you're a Fabulous Vegan Chef. I get to eat 5-star vegan foods at home. The Tradition here in Trinidad in my family is Salmon and other fish on Friday with potatoes or other roots like dasheen ( some call it taro) , sweet potatoes, pounded plantains, and then a rack of lamb, served up with rice, sauteed vegetables, and salads. A whole lot of fresh foods on the spot.
I made them it is SO GOOD OMG !!! thank you for your recipe it's crazy good !! also, i used sweetened soy milk because my mother did not really look when bying it... but it worked fine as well !! but next time i'm trying with unsweetened milk and putting herbs in it :D
Jana thank you for all you teach us. I was recently tested for food sensitivities. I have leaky gut so most vegetables I am reactive to. It was recommended to eat green bananas to heal my gut. I remembered your banana biomass recipe. I dehydrated it and made it into a powder. I add it to my oatmeal. You are a gift that has blessed me. I am so grateful for you. 😘💕

Thank you Chef Jana! I’ll share this recipe for sure! Happy Easter ✝️😊🌸 Easter is our family’s busy time. We observe Holy Week and then joyfully attend a Sunrise Service on Easter Morning. The weather on Vancouver Island is usually cold and rainy….but it looks more like snow tomorrow. Haha. For Easter dinner we eat vegan everything: falafels and roast veggies, salad, tziki, humus, pita, spanikopita and baclava…. I can’t wait to make the cheese!

I hope we can keep learning from each other! I look forward to learning more recipes from you.

Thanx! I had missed this cheese from a lifetime ago & even more so since when I went vegan... Although labneh was not part of my familial heritage, I had some early adulthood friends who had introduced me to labneh & I find I still miss its taste & mouthfeel.. Now you give me a chance to experience labneh again...vegan! Love ya, Jana! 😋💚

Hi Jana, this recipe is super interesting! I’d like to try it, do you think it would work even with a soy milk with a lower soy content (like 7%)? Here in Italy it’s pretty difficult to find more concentrated soy milks. Thank you! 💚
i love this video
This looks amazing! Definitely trying this out as a surprise for my partner. He loves cheese and I've been looking for this type for a while. A question: does anyone know if you can make anything with the water that is left over? Thank you!

Lovely! Process is similar to what we call "srikhand" in India, only it's made like a sweet dish here! 💙
thank you! :)

Love how delicious, easy, and simple it seems! Unfortunately, though, where I live(lebanon haha), we don't have vegan yogurt and not many soy milk options:((. My struggle with most vegan recipes online is that they require vegan alternatives which aren't available everywhere.

Looks great! Would it work with cashew milk? Not a soy fan.
What other plant based milk can I use? I do not way to use the soy. I love, love your videos, I share them even with my non-vegan friends

Yummy 😋
Amazing! There’s no soy milk nor vegan yogurt where I live in the countryside but as soon as I make a trip to the city I’m going to bring some back and try this!

I did see on a culture for vegan yogurt on the cultures for health website.
I'm making some using ripple pea milk since we are allergic to soy. I already had some yogurt since I make it at home anyway. It's already starting to get nice and think from straining. I can't wait to try it. I'm actually leaving it hanging on the counter top over night to get it more tangy then I'll put it in the fridge. Time will tell if I can make balls but even I I can't it will still be very spreadable.

Love this!! Can’t wait to make it. Vegan cream cheese is so expensive and some of it has ingredients I don’t really want to consume…I’m assuming it has to be stored in the refrigerator…Do you have to make it into little balls? And does it have to be stored in oil?

No and no. But the oil makes it last for months. The balls are only if youre putting it in oil.

I absolutely love this vegan cheese recipe but i would like to know what other kind of plant base milk can I use instead of soy, I am allergic to soy products, thank you

This is Amazing, just three (3) quick questions: 1) Do these "Cheese Balls" actually absorb the flavor? Wouldn't be better to combine a the strained yogurt with powdered garlic, herbs, salt first and make the cheese balls?, 2) How long should I leve them marinating to absorb flavor? 3) Can I reuse the olive oil? I mean, when doing the next batch can I put them inside this oil already used and add more fresh one if need it? Again, thank you so much, super exited to try this (I already do every week soy yogurt on my Instant pod using exactly that same brand and it works like magic)
Yeah! Vegan cheese recipe! 🎉

I have no idea whether this is useful or not-- but in my chilly house, when proofing my bread dough, I turn on the oven 😊😮
How long does this last when done? If stored in fridge the olive oil will solidify, if stored on counter top, will it spoil?
Would you say this is more similar to cream cheese or what type of cheese? Great looking video!

Cream cheese
Hello Thanks for sharing this recipe, im from Palestine and this rounded labaneh lives in every household here Since I discovered i am dairy intolerant, I missed it so much I have one question Can i use kefir starter or normal vegan starter culture because we don’t have vegan yogurt here
thanks for the recipe how long can we keep it once it's in olive oil ?
This looks amazing Jana! Because of a heart condition, I follow a no added fat vegan diet. Is there another way to store these besides in oil?
@spacebar9733

You can just put it in a jar by itself, the oil is just tradition.
ooh i like this :-)
Ive never tried labneh. Would you say this is like cream cheese? An would it be a good substitute for it? Thanks! Looks great :)
@ChefJana
2 жыл бұрын
Labneh is tangier and firmer than cream cheese. Think of a marriage between cream cheese and a yogurt, that's a close comparison ;)
Thanks so much! I'm definitely going to try this. I'll bet the temp is around 108-113 F since that will maintain the bacteria in the yogurt you added. BTW: we do not celebrate religious holidays, so we just enjoy ourselves like any other weekend. .
This looks great, thank you :) Can I ask how long can you store it for in fridge? And can you freeze it? Thank you

As long as you keep them fully covered in oil they should last at least a couple of months.
Great recipe, easy to make. Can you store it in brine? I would like to cut down the oil I use. Thanks!

No. The oil is anti bacterial. Olive oil is healthy. You can store it by itself in a jar (not as a ball) but oil makes it last for months but by itself it won't last as long.
Olá, Jana! Amei sua receita, só queria tirar uma dúvida...na parte de dessorar o queijo precisa apertar o pano ou deixa sair a água naturalmente com o peso em cima nesses três dias na geladeira? Amo suas receitas, são tão lindas, eu sempre como com os olhos hahaha
@ChefJana
2 жыл бұрын
Oi Júlia! Então, eu faço os dois, eu dou uma apertada e um torcida no pano mas não muito porque no começo o queijo ainda está muito cremoso e acaba passando pela trama do pano. Daí eu boto o peso em cima e levo a geladeira e deixo escorrer até ficar firmezinho. Demora até três dias mas varia. Um beijo grande lindona! Boa Páscoa pra ti! 😘🐣

Dear Jana, I tested this vegan cheese. Everything succeded well, but I did not like the taste of this cheese. Oh dear🙃. I got the idea to role the little bowls in chili- powder, paprika- powder and dried herbs de provence and put them in a glas with rapeseed- oil. After three days I tested and I love them. And the cheese looks so good! Thank you❤️. I'll make another try with a different yoghurt.
