The Bavarina name Topfen has gone back as far at the 13 th century. A Topf is a vessel usually used for cooking. Other German names are “Glumse” East Prussia, “Matte” Hesse, “Matz” Middle Germany, “Topfkäse”, “Bibbeleskäs” Baden, “Klatschkies” Rheineland, “Sibbkäs” South Hesse), “Luckeleskäs” oder “Luggeleskäs” Wurttemberg und “Weißkäse” oder “weißer Käs” Southern Germany. The name comes from the German Quark (first noted in the 14 th century), which in turn is derived from the Slavic tvarog, (Polish twaróg, Belarusian тварог, Russian творог, Czech and Slovak tvaroh, and Hungarian tъrу) which means “curd”. Also called Schichtkдse in other parts of Germany. Quark flavored with vanilla or fruit is used as a dessert. In these cakes, the quark is typically mixed with eggs, milk or cream, and sugar, and baked. Quark is often used as an ingredient for sandwiches, salads, and a kind of cake similar to cheesecake, called "Käsekuchen" in Germany and "kwarktaart" in the Netherlands. Quark with higher fat content is made by adding cream.
This type of quark has the texture of sour cream, but is much dryer and contains in its basic form about 0.2 % fat. In Germany, Quark is usually sold in plastic tubs. In industrial production, however, cheese is separated from whey in a centrifuge and later formed into blocks. Traditionally, this is done by hanging the cheese in flour sack towels and letting the whey drip off. Once the milk is ready, lactic acid bacteria are added in the form of mesophilic lactococcus (buttermilk) starter culture. In the United States the milk must first be pasteurized.
Quark is traditionally made without the aid of rennet. It usually has much lower fat content (about the same as yogurt) than cream cheeses and has no salt added. It is distinct from ricotta because ricotta (Italian: recooked) is made from scalded whey. It is not the same thing as cream cheese or cottage cheese. It is soft, white and un-aged, similar to fromage frais. Quark (or qvark) is a fresh cheese of European origin.
