Ingredients You’ll Need
- 2 quarts of whole milk
- 1/4 cup of white vinegar (or lemon juice)
- Salt to taste
Instructions to Make German Quark
- Heat Up the Milk: Start by pouring the whole milk into a large pot. Heat it on medium until it’s just about to simmer. Watch it closely; you don’t want it to boil over.
- Add Vinegar: Once the milk is warmed, stir in the vinegar (or lemon juice) slowly. You’ll see the curds beginning to form within a minute or two. This is the magic moment—let it sit for 10 minutes to let the curd and whey separate nicely.
- Strain the Curds: After letting it rest, place a cheesecloth or fine strainer over a bowl and carefully pour the curds and whey into it. Gather the cloth and twist it to squeeze out excess whey. The more you squeeze, the thicker your Quark will be.
- Season It: Once you’ve got the right consistency, transfer the curds into a mixing bowl. Add a pinch of salt to taste and mix it all together. Feel free to add herbs or spices if you’re in the mood for something extra!
- Chill Out: Lastly, cover your Quark and refrigerate it for a few hours before serving. This allows all those flavors to come together beautifully.
And there you have it, folks! You’ve just whipped up your own German Quark right at home! Use it on bread, mix it in with fruits, or even use it for baking! Get fancy with it how you like! Enjoy this creamy goodness!
