Liptauer is a spicy

quark, or cottage cheese.[2][3]

Etymology

The name is derived from the German name Liptau for the region of Liptov in northern Slovakia.

Overview

Liptauer prepared with quark cheese

It is a part of the regional cuisines of Slovakia (as Šmirkás, a form of the German Schmierkäse for cheese spread), Hungary (körözött),[4] Austria (Liptauer), Slovenia (liptaver), Serbia (urnebes salata, "chaos salad"), Croatia, Albania (liptao), Italy (especially in the province of Trieste), and Romania (especially in Transylvania, where it typically goes by the Hungarian name, körözött).[citation needed]

The three main ingredients are spreadable white cheese like

capers and anchovy paste.[citation needed
]

In Szeklerland and among other Transylvanian Hungarians, tarragon is also mixed in.

Consumption

Liptauer is traditionally eaten as an open sandwich, especially with rye bread or pumpernickel toast, or bagels, and also as an appetizer with crackers, served with beer or wine, or as a filling for cold dishes[2] such as stuffed tomatoes, peppers, celery or hard boiled eggs. Ready-made Liptauer is generally available in small tinfoil packages and has a spicy, sharp taste.[7]

In Austria, Liptauer is a typical snack served at

Heurigen, Austrian wine-drinking taverns.[8]
In Slovakia and Hungary many families have their own recipe for the dish. In Serbia, Liptauer is available in most restaurants that serve local cuisine. It is often made spicy with paprika, roasted red peppers and egg yolks.
