Directions
Greek Layered Dip With Pita Crisps, This is a delicious dip with a lovely flavour and presentation You may add chopped peeled cucumber if you wish If you are taking this to a party, layer the ingredients on a decorative plastic plate or tray from a party store – no risk of breaking your favorite serving plate! Prep time does not reflect the overnight time needed to make the yoghurt cheese so plan ahead!, What a great recipe! I cheated and bought hummus and pita chips I am allergic to dairy so used home made cashew greek yogurt to make the yogurt cheese I added a layer of chopped baby kale, lettuce and cilantro, all fresh from my garden It was a hit for our family Easter gathering I will definitely make this again!, Very tasty!The blend of flavors is so dynamic You will do best to follow the recipe exactly I tried Greek yogurt cream cheese and was really disappointed; I could tell after I made it that it would have been killer with strained yogurt I will try this with heirloom tomatoes when they come into season This is a little nitpicking, but I had trouble converting the ingredients list, as I don’t have a food scale Also, it definitely took longer than 30 minutes! Well worth it, though I will make this again for sure when I have someone to impress

The Day Before You Want to Serve the Dip, Take Your Yoghurt and Put It Into a Mesh Strainer You Have Lined With 3 or 4 Coffee Filters. (you May Also Line It With Damp Cheese Cloth) Set the Strainer in the Sink and Allow It to Drain Overnight. the Whey Will Drip Out of the Yogurt, Leaving a Smooth, Creamy Cheese Similar in Texture to Cream Cheese or Neufchatel. Stir in the Red Onion and Minced Chives and Set Aside.(alternatively You Can Use 1 8-Oz Container of Chives and Onion Cream Cheese Spread). |
