What does this mean in a recipe *Quark*?

Answer 1

Quark (or qvark) is a type of fresh cheese of Central European origin. Dictionaries usually translate it as curd cheese. It is soft, white and unaged, similar to cream cheese, pot cheese, or ricotta. Because it's a fresh cheese, Quark has a short refrigerator life; it must be used within roughly two to seven days after it is opened.

Quark (cheese)

Quark (or qvark) is a type of fresh cheese of Central European origin. Dictionaries usually translate it as curd cheese. It is soft, white and unaged, similar to cream cheese, pot cheese, or ricotta, and is a member of the acid cheese group.

It is often used as an ingredient for sandwiches, salads, and cheesecakes.

Quark is the German name for this edible wonder. It is also known in Russia and other Eastern European counties

Recipe for Quark:

Ingredients:
1 gallon of milk
1 quart of buttermilk (or less, if you want a sweeter tasting quark)
1/4 cup of water (cold)
1/4 tablet of Junket Rennet

Directions:
pour milk and buttermilk into a big pot and let stand for about 1 day at room temperature (66 F)
disolve the 1/4 of the junket rennet tablet in the 1/4 cup of water
stir the water with disolved junket rennet tablet into the milk/buttermilk combination and let stand until the milk sets (8-12 hours)
line a large colander (sieve) with a cheese cloth
spoon the set milk into this and let the whey run out into some container, (I do this in my garage in winter and in the fridge in summer)
this takes about 8 - 20 hours as well

This makes about 1 and 1/2 large yoghurt containers. Spoon the quark into the containers and smooth it with a handheld food processor.

It is now ready to eat and can be stored in the refrigerator for at least 1 week, longer in the freezer. (When you take it out of the freezer, you need to use the food processor again once it is defrosted.)

hope this helps. enjoy.

Answer 3

It's a soft curd cheese. It is very low in fat and calories and I use it to make cheesecakes and anything else that would call for cream cheese. One of my favourite recipes is for a filling for ravioli. Mix a can of crab with a carton of quark, make some pasta and make little patties with a spoonful of the crab and cheese mixture in the middle. Boil for five minutes and serve with a creamy sauce.
