"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

2 cups Yogurt
1/2 Tsp Salt
Large bowl
cheese cloth
Directions:
Directions:
Pour the Salt into the Yogurt and place it in the cheese clothe in a bowl. Pull the ends of the cloth together and twist until its tight. Some of the liquid should start coming out as you do this. Don't make it too tight or some of the yogurt will come out too. Place this in the refrigerator hanging the yogurt over the bowl and let it drain overnight about 12-24 hours. You can hang it with an office paper clip that looks like a chip bag sealer. Season it the next day however you wish.

Personal Notes:
I usually flavor mine with garlic salt that I've mixed with liquid smoke, a little fresh ground black pepper, a little summer savory or Italian seasoning, and some extra virgin olive oil. Sooooo good on crackers.
