We made the Quark or Cottage cheese from raw milk. I suspect if you try to
make it from pasteurized milk you may need a starter culture. We had a
response from Germany (Patrick) who said they make Quark from raw milk. On
the farm I lived on as a child we had our Cows tested for disease and we
drank the milk raw. I drank it while milking. It tasted so good that I
never liked pasteurized milk. Just buy cottage cheese from the store.
Also milk fat or butterfat is on the list of beneficial fats as it has a
little omega 3 in it. The bad fats are trans fats, and fats from grain
fed animals. Most low fat foods have too much added sugar.

Lorenzo,
That sounds so simple! I'll try it. But let me be sure I understand
this: is Quark the same thing as curd? I.e. the curd of skim milk =
low-fat quark?

Subject: [FlaxSeedOil2] lowfat quark?
I've been taking a tbs flaxseed oil with a quarter cup of quark
(which
I find delicious). I'm a little concerned about the high fat
content
of the quark and would like to substitute a low-fat kind if I could
find it. Can anyone assist me in this?
