  1. A quick and easy way to strain yogurt. Spread a whole ( yes all 20 pages ) newspaper on your counter, cover with a cheese cloth, folded twice over. Spread the yogurt on this in a 1/2 " thin layer. Wait 10 mins and it's done ! wait a little longer and you have a nice curd cheese.

  2. I haven't tried it yet, but Greek yogurt (Athenos or Fage, pronounced Far-yay) probably would work just as well with no straining time involved.

    1. Tried this yesterday with Fage Greek yogurt and it worked just fine and was much faster to make. I did have to strain the crushed pineapple overnight. No getting around that!
