Jobneh (Syrian Cheese) image

This cheese is used in a lot of sweets, including katayif and knafa. I am guessing on the prep time and cooking time because I am not sure exactly how long it takes the water to drain because I never timed it.

This jobneh recipe is a delightful journey into the culinary heritage of Syria. The result is a rich, creamy cheese with a delightful tang. I served it with fresh pita bread and a drizzle of olive oil, and it was a hit!
