👳🏻‍♂️ Otro de nuestros nuevos productos!!! 👳🏻‍♂️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ LABNEH (Crema de Yogurt) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ La tradición del labneh en nuestra familia empezó con que cada vez que mi abuela venía de Puerto Ordaz a Caracas, siempre nos preparaba esta crema, donde literalmente cada mañana que nos levantábamos en la casa lo primero que hacíamos era sacar un pan árabe y colocarle el labneh, para luego verter el aceite de oliva y un poco de zaatar (orégano árabe) para así poder enrollarlo y comérselo. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ No había cosa mas buena que levantarse y disfrutarse esta crema en el desayuno. Para los que la conocen, saben que es increíblemente divino 🤤🤤🤤 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @shanklishcaracas ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @shanklishpzo ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #shanklish #labneh #caracas #shanklishcaracas #quesoarabe #queso #dip #eldipperfectoparatodo #arabe

Instructions:

  1. First, preheat your oven to 400 F.
  2. Wash your beets very well but you don’t have to peel them! That will just stain your hands and the skins will come off after they’ve been roasted easily.
  3. If you have very small or baby beets, you can roast them whole, but if your beets are large, consider slicing them or at least cutting them into quarters.
  4. Put the beets into a roasting pan with 2 tablespoons of water, cover with tin foil, and bake until fork-tender, about 40 minutes.
  5. Cool the beets and then slide the skin off with the help of a paper towel.
  6. While the beets cool, spread some labneh on a plate and sprinkle over the zaatar or dukkah and drizzle over a little bit of olive oil.
  7. Put the beets on top of the labneh, season with salt and finish with the fresh herbs.
  8. Enjoy!
