QUARK (HOMEMADE CHEESE)

Quark (Homemade Cheese) image

I discovered Quark at a farmers market and instantly fell in love, but it's been difficult to find in stores. This recipe is a fine replacement for more expensive creme fraiche and pairs well with fresh fruit for dessert.

QUARK (SOUR FRESH CHEESE)

Quark (Sour Fresh Cheese) image

I like spreading Quark on my morning slice of bread and topping it with jam, but you can also mix it with salt and herbs and dollop it next to boiled potatoes for a light meal. Using buttermilk will result in skim Quark, which is best for baking recipes. If you want a creamier Quark to eat as is, simply stir a little heavy cream into the Quark to loosen and enrich it. (Mixed with high-quality fruit preserves, this makes for a luxurious little snack.)

Put the milk in a large sterilized pot over medium heat. Slowly heat it to 77 F. Don't try and speed up this process or the milk will not set properly. Stir the milk gently with a sterilized stainless steel spoon to prevent scorching. Remove the pot from the heat.
Sprinkle the mesophilic culture evenly over the surface of the milk and let it sit for 5 minutes to rehydrate. Use a sterilized stainless steel skimmer, moving it in a gentle up-and-down motion to draw down and mix in the culture, avoiding breaking the surface of the milk. Dilute the rennet in 1/4 cup of cool, non-chlorinated water. Give the milk a gentle stir and while it's swirling, add the diluted rennet to the milk. Immediately stir the milk with the skimmer using the same up-and-down motion. Do this for about 2 minutes, making sure the rennet is thoroughly mixed throughout the milk, otherwise the milk will not set properly.Cover the pot and let it sit in a draft-free location at room temperature for 24 hours (wrap the pot in a large towel if needed).After 24 hours check the milk. Tip the pot carefully to drain off the whey on the surface.
If the milk is properly set it will have pulled away from the sides. Use a long, sterilized knife to check for a clean break in the thickened milk (see pics in blog post). If you can cut through it and get a clean break the milk is properly set. If it isn't, let it continue to sit and check again after 30 minutes. Repeat if needed. Use a long, sterilized knife to cut 2-inch-wide strips from top to bottom through the curd. Then follow the same process to cut 2-inch strips horizontally from side to side. Now that you've used a long knife to cut the curd vertically, next use the skimmer to cut the curd horizontally into cubes.
Place the curds in a colander lined with cheesecloth. Depending on the size of your colander you may need to work in batches. Let the curds drain for about 4 hours (it may be less depending on the mesh size of your cheesecloth). Let the curds drain until you get a thick, spreadable consistency. Transfer the finished quark to a bowl, give it several good stirs to break up any lumps, cover and refrigerate until ready to use. It will keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
