Farmer’s Cheese Liptauer Spread

This week, check out an Oliver’s exclusive straight from from Valley Ford Cheese and Creamery: their wonderfully light and creamy Farmer’s Cheese! This spread made from farmer’s cheese is a traditional Slavik dish popular in Austria and Hungary; it’s loaded with sweet paprika, briney capers, and pungent caraway seeds. Try it as a delicious dip with crackers or spread it on some dark bread for an afternoon snack!

  • Serves: 4-6 people
  • Prep Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

  • 8 oz. Valley Ford Farmer's Cheese

  • 1/2 tsp. Caraway Seeds
  • 1 large Shallot, finely minced
  • 1 clove Garlic, finely minced
  • Salt & Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. Beat together the farmer's cheese and butter until well-mixed and fluffy. Stir in paprika, capers, mustard, caraway seeds, shallot, and garlic until paprika has been totally combined and other ingredients are evenly dispersed. Season generously with salt and pepper, stirring again.
