Greek yogurt is just a more strained version of regular yogurt, no kidding. You pay top dollar for it but you can do yourself and save the money.

  • regular yogurt, amount is up to you

Instructions
 

  • Place a wire mesh strainer or rice strainer over a bowl, place a double layer of cheese cloth, or a basket style coffee filter in the strainer.
  • Add yogurt. Cover with plastic wrap or foil, and put in the fridge.
  • Drain for 1 hour to remove 20% of the whey. Drain for 3-4 hours to remove 1/2 the whey. Drain overnight (about 8 hours) to remove all the liquid, this gives you a consistency of sour cream.
