Is that a brand name or the actual food? I gotta try it!
Quark is a uniquely German thing that I’m having trouble replicating ever since I moved abroad.
It’s extremely thick, much more solid than yoghurt, and completely unsweetened. Mixing a box of unflavored cream cheese with a shot of milk and a pinch of salt is what I’ve been using instead, which gets close enough.
It’s actually sold in many different other countries as well (such as The Nerherlands, Belgium, France, Austria, Poland, etc).
actual food.
It’s basically what you get when you stop cheesemaking after the very first step.
