A Recipe for Quark Lovers

A product that I use very versatilely and truly appreciate is homemade Quark, also called Topfen. Whether for health as a Quark compress, for insect bites to apply, or for cooking – simply a delight. This time, I want to share a recipe for soup lovers. For those who like to incorporate Quark – a simple and reliable cooking experience.

The recipe is also quick to make. Especially if you can prepare in the morning, have to leave during the day, and have little time to finish the dish at lunchtime – ideal! Because the preparation time is only about 20 min. Add a fresh salad – and a good meal is ready.

Quark Dumplings as a Soup Garnish

for approx. 4-6 people – only 20 min preparation time (without chilling time)

INGREDIENTS:

• 250 g Quark
• 50 g sour cream
• 709 g semolina
• 1 whole egg
• 1 egg yolk
• Salt, pepper, nutmeg, parsley

PREPARATION:

Mix all ingredients together and refrigerate for approx. 2 hours to rest. Then form dumplings (with a coffee or tablespoon, depending on how large you want them) and cook in lightly simmering water or in the already prepared beef broth. After the dumplings “rise to the top,” add 1/4 liter of cold water, bring to a light boil again, and let steep for 10 min. Enjoy your meal from Zittrauerhof.
