Quark
Quark is a fresh dairy product popular in Central and Northern Europe (also called tvaroh) with a mild, slightly tangy flavor and a creamy texture used in both sweet and savory dishes. It is a notable source of protein, providing about 10g of protein per 100g, which makes it useful for cooking, baking and as a high‑protein snack. Quark also supplies some vitamin B12 and iodine and tends to be lower in carbohydrates and sugars than many sweet dairy spreads; it is valued for its high‑quality amino acid profile and strong satiety potential, though like most fresh cheeses it contains little fiber.
