Labne - Kefir Cheese


I purchased a 16 ounce tub of homemade labne, aka kefir cheese, at the local international supermarket. It resembles mascarpone, only sour. The soft and creamy consistency is mild and its texture is soft and smooth.

You can serve it alone as a light snack or an accompaniment to anything else. It pairs well with bagels or veggie sticks.

I have made home made kefir cheese by over-fermenting kefir until the separation occurs into curds and whey. It does not look this smooth, but resembles more of a cottage cheese consistency.
