We make it much the same but use Aleppo Pepper in it in place of the
Greek Seasoning. I'll have to try oregano, as we love the wild
Jordonian thyme as in Zata'ar
Another yummy way for this yogurt is to mix Zata'ar and Aleppo with
the cucumber and yogurt w/lemonb and olive oil. I also make Labne
this way, without the olive oil or lemon.
My favourite brands of yogurt being Fage imported from Greece and
available at Trader Joe's and fine markets. Also a wonderful and
cheaper yogurt is Karoun Dairies, LA. I find it at Indian/Pakistani
Markets and also Middle Eastern Markets. Lovely for tandoori etc.
