Ingredients
- 2 cups whole fat Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup (or more) good-quality extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons finely minced fresh herbs (such as tarragon, parsley, and chives)
- 1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method
- Line a large sieve with cheesecloth; set over a medium deep bowl.
- Place yogurt in sieve.
- Gather edges of cheesecloth to cover yogurt. Place in refrigerator and let drain for 2-3 days. Gently squeeze out any excess liquid; discard liquid in bowl (yogurt will be very thick and resemble soft goat cheese).
- Roll yogurt into 3/4″ balls. Place in an 8-ounce glass jar.
- Whisk oil, herbs, and lemon zest in a small bowl to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour over yogurt in jar.
- Cover; place in refrigerator and let marinate for at least 8 hours and up to 2 weeks.
Enjoy!
