AUTHENTIC GERMAN CHEESECAKE



Authentic German Cheesecake image

My mom searched for years for an authentic German cheesecake recipe, but Germans use 'quark', an ingredient not readily available in the U.S. This recipe uses cottage cheese in place of quark and makes its own crust while baking.

COTTAGE CHEESE GERMAN STYLE



Cottage Cheese German Style image

Growing up we had a neighbor from Germany that used to make this. What makes this unusual is the preparation. I don't know what it's called, but I know she used it as a dip & a dressing. It's great as a topping for baked potatoes, or with raw veggies, good bread etc. She'd have it in the evening as a snack with her glass of wine that she put Sweet Woodruff (a flower/ground cover she grew in her garden) leaves in, (also a German tradition). This is really nice to have on hand. Her original recipe called for MSG, which I omit. You can put in any amounts of your favorite seasonings, I think she just added her favorites or whatever she was in the mood for. However the caraway seeds are a desirable flavor addition which demand that this sits a bit to soften the seeds. Otherwise, it could be used right away, or kept on hand in the fridge through the week. You can also add green onion, or anything else that strikes your fancy.

CHEESE SOUFFLé IN 4 EASY STEPS



Cheese soufflé in 4 easy steps image

Didn't think you could manage a soufflé? Try this simple step-by-step recipe and conquer a classic

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Brunch, Dinner, Lunch, Main course, Side dish, Starter, Supper

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

50g butter, plus extra for greasing
25g breadcrumbs
50g plain flour
1 tsp mustard powder
300ml milk
4 eggs
100g grated extra-strong cheddar (blue cheese, goat's cheese and smoked cheeses also work well)

Steps:

  • Preparing the soufflé dish: Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and place a baking sheet on the middle shelf. Butter a 15cm soufflé dish generously, then sprinkle in the breadcrumbs and rotate the dish to ensure the butter is evenly coated. Tip out any excess breadcrumbs.
  • Making a thick white sauce: In a pan, melt the butter over a medium heat; stir in the flour and mustard. Cook, stirring, for 1 min. Take off the heat and gradually stir in the milk, mixing it in thoroughly before adding more. Return to the heat and stir continuously until very thick (around 10 mins). Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool. Crack the eggs, placing the whites into a clean bowl and stirring the yolks into the sauce. Stir in cheddar and season well.
  • Adding the egg whites: Use a clean whisk to beat the egg whites until peaks form that just hold their shape (electric is best as it will make the job much quicker). Then take a metal spoon and gently stir the whipped whites into the white sauce in a figure of eight.
  • Top-hatting: Spoon the mixture into the dish. Run a cutlery knife around the edge to create a 'top hat' effect; this ensures the soufflé rises above the rim and doesn't stick. Place on the baking sheet and bake for 25-30 mins until the top is golden and risen and has a slight wobble. Serve immediately.
  • EQUIPMENT: 15cm soufflé dish, saucepan, 2 large mixing bowls, wooden spoon, spatula, baking sheet, large metal spoon, measuring jug, grater, electric whisk, cutlery knife.
