Quark

quark

German to English

Quark is a fresh, soft, white cow's-milk cheese with a
tart, tangy, milky flavor reminiscent of yogurt or fromage
blanc. Its texture, however, is richer and denser, almost
like cr�me fra�che. The cheese is thick enough to be a
substitute for cream cheese on a bagel or in a dip, yet
light enough to whip and dollop over sugared berries or a
slice of fruit pie.

Part of the appeal for some people is quark's low fat
content, since most brands available in the United States
are made from skim or low-fat milk.

"In Austria or Germany the fat content can vary from 5 to
40 percent, but here it's usually around 10 percent," said
Kurt Gutenbrunner, the chef at Walls�, an Austrian
restaurant in the West Village, and at Cafe Sabarsky in
the
Neue Museum. He goes through 10 cases a week, using it in
a dough for apricot dumplings, in the Viennese version of
cheesecake, in strudel, in sandwiches with speck, the
Austrian ham, and as a spread for black bread.
