I made this by accident.
I made a batch of yoghurt in my Easiyo container before I found out how easy it was to make in the slow cooker.
Anyway, it came out quite runny so l put a cotton handkerchief in a sieve over a colander and left it to drain in the fridge.
I left it for too long (overnight) so it was far too dry for yoghurt but made a brilliant soft cheese. So you may need to leave it for about 8 hours or so. Just keep checking because you may not want it as dry as the one that I made (which by the way tastes just like Boursin, to my amazement!).
However, I discovered that this is the way to make soft cheese so I did a bit of an experiment.
I put some in a bowl, added a bit of salt, crushed black pepper and some garlic powder, gave it a good mix and OMG!
It is just like Cracked Pepper Boursin with added garlic.
I am in conso so had a couple of slices of toasted wholemeal bread with this spread on and it was bl**dy fantastic!
I never ever thought I would be able to make my own yoghurt and soft cheese but now there will be no stopping me.

Sorry for the big pics folks.
I made two tubs from a litre of UHT milk, the one on the left is with the added ingredients, the one on the right is just plain.
