What is BİM Labneh Cheese?
BİM Labneh Cheese is a soft, spreadable dairy product made by straining yogurt until thick. Labneh is a traditional favourite across the Levant and neighbouring parts of the Middle East; this is BİM’s packaged version, suited to everyday meals as well as recipes.
Its tangy, creamy taste works on toast or flatbread, and it is often served in the region with olive oil and herbs, or used in dips and baking. For English-speaking cooks elsewhere, it also makes an easy sandwich spread or savoury dip. It is rich and energy-dense, with 21 g of fat per 100 g. For a fresher, lighter-tasting serving, mix a small spoonful with cucumber, lemon and herbs.
