Jameed (Arabic: جميد, literally "hardened") is a form of dried yoghurt made made from goat's milk or sheep's milk. It is made by draining thick yoghurt of its whey, shaping it into balls, and letting it harden. Drying prevents spoilage.

Jameed is eaten in Jordan, especially in Bedouin cooking. It is also common among the Bedouin in Palestine , Egypt, and even Syria. It is also customary to add to a sauces or soups.
