Ingredients

  • ½ gallon whole-milk buttermilk
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Cooking Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Line a colander with cheese cloth and place over a large pot in the sink.
  2. Gently mix buttermilk and cream together in a 2-quart ceramic casserole dish.
  3. Cook in the preheated oven for 2 hours and 15 minutes.
  4. Pour buttermilk mixture into the prepared colander; drain for 45 to 60 minutes. Transfer drained cheese to a bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer until smooth and creamy. Store in the refrigerator.
Do not use low-fat buttermilk. It will not work well; Add some freshly cut chives, a couple cloves of minced garlic, onions, salt, and pepper for taste and you have a basic krauter(herbal) quark, a great spread right on your favorite bread or roll; For cheesecake, let it drain a little longer; It can be made using a yogurt maker, but this is an overnight procedure. This is a quicker way that yields pretty much the same product.
