HUNGARIAN CHEESE SPREAD (LIPTAUER)



Hungarian Cheese Spread (Liptauer) image

I remember having something very similar to this as an appetizer at a party. When I asked for the recipe I was told that it was a family recipe from Hungaria and she just dumps it all in. I then decided to research it and this is what I have come up with. It is combination of several different recipes that I came across until I came up with the taste I remembered.

LIPTAUER CHEESE SPREAD RECIPE - HUNGARIAN KOROZOTT JUHTURO



Liptauer Cheese Spread Recipe - Hungarian Korozott Juhturo image

Liptauer is a soft, unripened cheese made from sheep's milk that comes from Lipto in what is now Liptov in northern Slovakia. The word Liptauer has become synonymous with the spread it is made with. Romanian brindza, or a combination of dry curd or farmers, cottage, ricotta or cream cheese and sour cream can be used in place of Liptauer. If you can't find dry curd cheese, you might want to make your own farmers cheese from scratch. Liptauer cheese spread is typically eaten as an appetizer or snack with dark rye bread, radishes, hard-cooked eggs, green onions, green pepper and beer. Hungarians, Czechs, Austrians and some Scandinavians all claim it as their own. Makes about 1 cup Liptauer Cheese Spread - Korozott Juhturo
