To Make Greek Yogurt: Place the cheese cloth over the strainer, then the strainer over a bowl. Pour the yogurt into the cheese cloth-strainer and allow it to sit in the fridge overnight, or at least for 3-4 hours. You’ll notice the liquid (whey) filling up the bowl, leaving you with super thick yogurt.
