Low-fat quark is a creamy, fresh dairy product commonly used in European cuisine, particularly in German, Austrian, and Scandinavian diets. Made from pasteurized cow's milk, it undergoes a fermentation process with lactic acid bacteria, resulting in a smooth texture and a mild, slightly tangy flavor. With a significantly lower fat content than traditional full-fat quark, this version is ideal for those seeking lighter options. Rich in protein and calcium, it supports muscle growth and bone health, making it a popular choice among athletes and health-conscious individuals. Low-fat quark is also low in calories, providing a nutritious alternative to higher-fat dairy products like cream or sour cream. However, it contains lactose, which may not be suitable for those with lactose intolerance. Versatile in both savory and sweet dishes, low-fat quark can be enjoyed as a spread, dip, or dessert base.
