I was in Poland in Oct 2007 and in Zakopane mountaineous areas. I had the most wonderful
Nalesniki z serem there in a restaurant. I cannot replicate them in the States. We are trying to use farmer’s cheese with them. What do you recommend? I am not familiar with what quack curd is.

When I first read the name of your blog, I jumped high. I love cats and I do love cooking! Your ideas are so nice, your pictures are great. I add your blog to my favs ;-). P.S. There’s one more thing I like the blog for. Polish nalesniki – I love them too! Not only because I’m Polish, but because they are one of the things my Grandma used to make me for my dinners… :-)

[...] Quark is a kind of soft cream cheese often used in Polish recipes and you’vre probably noticed that I use it a lot, especially in cheesecakes as I’m used to eastern european cheesecakes with quark instead of cream cheese. The problem is that in Sweden we only have Kesella. Kesella works rather well in some recipes but for most dishes it’s just too watery and runny. Some dishes calls for compact quark, and that you solve by making it yourself. This is just the base recipe, when you’re done you can use this homemade quark in cheesecakes (maybe a Tiramisù cheesecake or raspberry cheesecake brownies, pierogi (a sort of Polish tortellini), pancakes (either Polish ones or pancakes that melt in your mouth) or other dishes. Or you can just add some of your favourite spices and put it on a piece of bread together with some tomato slices and you have yourself a delicious sandwich. In day or two I will post another great dish which calls for this homemade quark. [...]
