Curd Cheese ("Quark") - make it yourself

Take one Gallon of 2% milk and replace one cup of the milk with fresh buttermilk.
Let it stand for 3 days in the stove with the light on. After that time, the whey should have separated from the "quark".
Discard the whey and place the quark into a kitchen towel to drain from excess whey - which may take another day in the fridge.
This quark can used as bread spread, for sweet dishes, cakes, dumplings not to mention excellent spicy dips, tzatziki or potato topping.

# 1 kat An oven light uses 60 watts, and that for 3 days. A Quark maker uses only 18 watts and is done after one night. www.quarkmaker.com for more info
