ABSTRACT:
A yogurt cheese making device for separating the whey from yogurt having a strainer which receives the yogurt, the strainer having an open top, a bottom, a pair of opposing end walls, and a pair of opposing side walls. The side walls and bottom are covered with a straining medium which is a wire mesh. The wire mesh is disposed at a 45.degree. angle with respect to the vertical to assist in drainage. The bottom of the strainer is defined by a pair of parallel straining troughs. The strainer is nested in a sealable container which has a sealing top. Whey from the yogurt seeps through the straining medium and is collected at the bottom of the sealable container. The entire device is preferably square or rectangular in shape to minimize the storage area required in a refrigerator.
