Quark is a type of soft cheese. It has a slightly sharp taste and is similar to sieved cottage cheese. sometimes it is called curd cheese. You don't really very often eat it on its own, it is usually made into receipes like quark cake, or mousses.

you actually can eat it with bread if you mix some herbs or just salt and pepper into it - really nice

My German ex daughter-in-law when ever she returned to Germany always wanted her Mothers new potatoes covered with Quark garlic and herbs. She also made cheese cake with it and mixed with I think was yogurt and used it as a salad dressing. hope this helps

I lived in Germany for a while too and this is similar to the cheesecakes you get there.
Have fun

Nope I don't have ill bird. But quark cheese stuff. I tried in raw the other and it was vile. I picked up the wrong thing by the way.

I now have half a small tub left. What can I use it. I don't have any idea apart from bin it.

Or maybe bake it with some fruit in it.
