Labneh — photo 1

Labneh is yogurt strained until thick and spreadable, eaten across the Levant with olive oil, za'atar and flatbread, or rolled into balls and kept in oil. A 30 g portion (about two tablespoons) has about 40 kcal, 2.4 g of protein and 3 g of fat. It is usually salted, with about 270 mg of sodium per 100 g. Brands enriched with cream can have twice the fat, and the olive oil served with it adds about 40 kcal per teaspoon.
