QUARK CHEESE

I have been unable to find Quark at our local supermarket so decide to look for a recipe on the internet. Voila, it was there on a blog by Peanut Butter Boy. Sounds easy enough and I can't wait to try it. Hopefully I'll be able to use it instead of Ricotta which it ridiculously expensive in NZ as it is imported from Australia. Have now made this recipe and can confirm that it was extremely easy to make and totally delicious. No more store bought cheeses for me.

Steps:

  • Set oven to 150F (65 degrees C). Pour buttermilk into the baking dish and cover with a lid or tinfoil. Place the dish in the oven and let it sit overnight, or about 8-12 hours.
  • In the morning, remove the dish from the oven. Place the strainer in the sink or a large pot and line it with the linen or cheese cloth. Spoon or pour the contents of the baking dish into the strainer. You'll notice that the curd (solid) has partially separated from the whey (liquid). Cover the cheese with the ends of the cloth and let it drain in the sink for 30-60 minutes. To speed up the process, fill a bowl or sealed container with water and place on top to weigh it down. 30 min seemed sufficient.
  • Place the contents into a bowl and refrigerate. Once chilled, add milk, 2Tbsp at a time until it is smooth and easy to spread with a texture similar to creamy ricotta cheese.
  • Add salt to taste.
  • Makes 8oz or about 1 to 1-1/2 cups.

  • 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.
