1 quart buttermilk
1 large Pyrex form with lid or any other form with lid
1 large colander
1 cheesecloth or plain linnen Pour the buttermilk in oven proof form, cover
with lid and put into oven overnight at lowest temperature (150 F). Next morning line the colander with cloth and pour the lumpy buttermilk into it. Cover with the ends of the cloth and let drain in sink for
about 2 hours. This process can be speed up by putting a bowl filled with water on top. This instruction will make about 1/2 lbs of quark. Cream Milk mixure: Used to
make Sahnequark. Add to every quart of buttermilk 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Tip If Quark is too dry, add milk, half-and-half, or cream. Variation
To get a creamy Quark (Sahnequark) make sure that your Quark is very dry, and then add heavy cream to it, or start Quark with cream milk mixture. To make a dessert, sweeten the Quark, whip heavy
cream and stirr under. |
