Quark is great for making your own Tzatziki dip:
Quark, garlic (powder or fresh), thinly sliced cucumber, thinly sliced onion (if u like), salt und pepper to taste = done is a lovely Greek dip

I mix a little crushed garlic into a tub of quark and leave it overnight. It makes a lovely mock sour cream dressing to have with chilli or curry to cool it down if you have made it to spicy ( I do this all the time as my fiance loves a hot curry or chilli but my mouth cant take it lol)

I just mixed up a tub with a white options hot choc and some sweetener and it really is lovely! I was a bit hesitant as it sounds weird but it's sooo nice and going on top of my strawberries for supper in a mo!


How do you reckon you'd make it savory and take the tanginess out of it? I'd like it with chives or something but not sure on the flavour.

Am a Quark convert now

I use quark in lots of ways, as a base on Ryvita instead of cream cheese then top off with all sorts of things like stawberries, bananas, and for lunch the other day I bought a pack of smoked salmon trimmings from asda and put that on top.
I also put a spoonful on top of my super speed soup- tastes great and looks posh!
I mix it with milk and use it with sliced potatoes, garlic and onions to make a version of dauphinoise potatoes which everyone else thinks is very fattening LOL!!

love it in curry as well
I wish more places sold it

[notokettlechips]

When you bake it like for making a dauphinoise, does it separate? It always does for me

 

[charleybabes]
