What is Quark and labneh sauce?
Quark and labneh sauce brings together quark, a fresh cultured cheese popular in parts of Central Europe, and labneh, the strained-yoghurt staple of Levantine cooking. The result is thick, smooth and gently tangy, with a mild dairy flavour that takes well to herbs, spices or a little lemon.
Serve it as a dip with raw vegetables, flatbread or crackers, or spoon it alongside grilled vegetables and other mezze. It also works as a spread for sandwiches. This creamy sauce is relatively high in protein for a dip; thin it with a splash of water or lemon juice if you would like a lighter consistency.
