The light, tangy flavour of German fresh cheese is complemented by chives, shallot fritters and minced garlic for this healthy and tasty dip. It is perfect with crunchy vegetable sticks, crisp baked potatoes, and grilled meat. It is even nice as a spread on a hearty rye bread.

- Stir Quark, milk, minced garlic and white wine vinegar in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add in shallot fritters and chopped chives. Stir until combined. Garnish with more fritters and chives if desired.

Wonderful dip! It has strong flavors that can go well with vegetables and most types of bread too. Thanks for sharing Angie, the pics look great :)
That dip sounds like it would be exploding with flavors... very nice!
I love the pictures!!! The addition of garlic + white wine vinegar is sure to add a lot of flavor in the dip!
I am not sure what looks like I will eat more the dip or the bread... they both look fabulous.. that bread is the heartiest looking Rye I ever saw... the dip sounds creamy full of great flavors we all love!
Amazing I had a dips platter at a cafe this afternoon and it wasn't anywhere near as beautiful as what you have made. Yum Angie!
I've never tried German quark cheese, but I'm sure it's superb. I'll look for it in the market next time! Nothing like a delicious dip like this to nibble on with some fresh veggies! Gotta love the addition of garlic too!
So many things I'd love to dip this in! Great idea.
What a gorgeous presentation with the chives on the side and the shallots sprinkled on top. I'm intrigued by the shallot fritters.

I've never heard of Quark cheese before but the ingredients added to it I love. Is this a strong or mild cheese? Looks delicious especially with that bread.
Cheese is my favorite food & I've never had quark before so I need to try this ... Happy Sunday :-)
I have never heard of Quark...thought it was a computer program for graphic designers:-D This looks amazing and my chives are just so beautiful this year; a wonderful treat with a glass of wine! XOXO
I've never heard of this cheese, but it sure looks tasty in your dip. What beautiful photos. Oh my, I'm craving a piece of that bread with that dip!

I love both different cheeses and dips. I could eat them as whole meals. This, with the addition of fresh German cheese, sounds absolutely delicious. I've never heard of quark before. And I love the crunchy shallots. Yum!
The Hungarians use Quark a lot for dips and baked goods too!
Very delicious dip , Angie ! Haven't tried quark ( just knew about this cheese few days ago :D ) yet but I'm sure it must be appetizing ! :D
I love the use of quark as an alternative to cream cheese or sour cream! Mmm.
This sounds different and delicious. It is a perfect summer dip. Have a great day. Blessings...Mary
Oh, this looks really tasty, love the shallot fritters. Wonderful presentation and photos too, plus that bread looks outstanding. Is it rye?
I love quark...I can't way to try this!
Angie - I've never heard of shallot fritters or Quark cheese - you would think I'm from some foreign country! Oh - I guess I am! Hope you had a nice weekend. This dip looks terrific and creamy. The bread speaks to me too :)
@Vicki Bensinger It's a mild cheese, that you can enjoy it just like cottage cheese.
@Anne@FromMySweetHeart
It's more like cottage cheese.
A really awesome dip..love d recipe
Tasty Appetite

I never heard quark,looks so creamy and delicious,great and simple recipe,Angie !!

Love spreads! This dip must taste great!
I never heard of quark...but from the look of this dip I know that I will like it...looks delicious, creamy and so flavorful :)
Have a wonderful week ahead Angie!
Mmm... another yummy one!!A very nice dip for summer.
If I could ever find quark cheese this is what I would make with it! What a delicious dip and love the shallot fritters.
I had quark for the first time in Europe last year and loved it--it must pair perfectly with the shallot and chives.
I would love to try quark! the dip looks creamy and delicious!
I've never heard of quark, but oh, I love cheese dips! And adding crispy shallots to it makes it even better. :D
Lovely...
and I found Quark in my little suburb (at last), been looking for quite sometime... will be experimenting soon :D
I'm really loving this dip! Looks absolutely gorgeous :)
Hugs <3
The problem with this is that I would eat the whole thing for dinner with that entire loaf of bread! Two of my weaknesses. Looks fantastic:)
love it :-) and I need to use chives more
Hi Angie,
Good morning.
The recipe looks interesting and a variety. It is nice to learn new recipes through your blog.
Thanks for sharing it.
Regards,
Abhilash
This dip looks delicious--I may have trouble finding the cheese--is there an American substitution?
This is a versatile & delicious dip~!
That dip looks awesome, I can probably devour the entire thing as is!
What a beautiful mix of flavors! To me, the chives put it over the top.
Quark is not a cheese we use much here in the U.S., but I know it's something like cottage cheese and chives and shallots would be perfect in it for a dip. Nice recipe, Angie.
Lovely healthy dip! Thanks for sharing Angie :)
Love the tangy and awesome flavor of Quark cheese that no other cheese can be a substitute for it. Have to take a short trip to my local organic Whole Foods Market to get this...just craving this yummy dip, now!
This delicious cheesy dip would also go perfectly with pita chips. Perfect idea!
I can't think of a better or more elegant & unfussy appetizer - the flavors from the chives and shallots are PERFECT with the quark :)
chow! Devaki @ weavethousandflavors
Angie, I am so in love with this dip, it looks so outstanding and delicious!
Oh wow, what a lovely dip! Looks so very tasty!
I am relatively new to quark and thrilled to have this recipe - your shallot fritters are fantastic!
The dip looks wonderful.
This dip looks delicious, I think I can get quark here-will have to look for it;-)
I love love finding out about new cheeses, being that I am a cheese addict:-) The Quark cheese sounds fantastic....now if I can find some is the question:-) Your dip sounds like it is full of flavor, and really fantastic! Hugs, Terra
First time I'm hearing about quark, and I am liking what I see! Looks super delicious and fantastic with that lovely crusty bread!
Never tried the quark before but i will like to try it with french fries.
Your dip looks really good. I love that it's quick, easy and healthy too.
I remember looking for Quark a long time ago here in the U.S. It took me sometime but eventually found it, amazing dip Miss A!!
Such unusual and interesting Dip! Lovely clicks, Angie.
I have never tried quark before. It sounds so interesting…and looks delicious! Your photos and presentation are beautiful!!
what a great combination of flavors! I am also in the mood of dipping sauces lately, got one on the way. guess it's because they go so well with our beloved bread. what's that beauty in the background btw?
This dip looks amazing. I've never heard of Quark, but I'm sure I can find it at Wegman's. Can't wait to try it.
This dip would be talked about if I served it any party. The flavors are dreamy and so sophisticated.
Your pictures are always gorgeous!! I've never used quark before... is it easy to use?
This looks absolutely mouthwatering. I have never heard of quark before, but I will be on the lookout
Looks so good, especially with the bread. Is that an onion rye? I love the shallots on top. I'd need to look for quark.
Thats an irresistible and super delicious dip.
What a lovely dip! And photos are beautiful! :)
This dip looks so tasty Angela! We just made fresh quark in my Garde Manger class at school, so I might have to whip this dip up very soon =)
Delicious dip with quark. I love to chive and shallot combo;
Hmmm. "Quark" cheese...It looks similar to a cream or goat cheese. Nice!

Your recipes are always so interesting! I had a fabulous cheese dip in Germany. I don't know if it was quark but it was amazing, whatever it was. Wish I could make this.
I can't say that I've ever had Quark...looks fab, Angie!!
This is so interesting! My mom actually just bought a big tub of quark, and I've never had it before. I don't realy know what to do with it....but now I do! Excited to try this recipe!
P.S. That bread looks amazing.
Angie, I made this tonight! It was delicious, thank you for the recipe. Wow, is quark ever interesting. Glad I tried it!
@Koko
Koko, I am so glad to know that you have tried and enjoyed it.
Ah quark is a summer must with chives! Nice as a snack, especially as a spread on some whole wheat bread. lovely clicks angie! =D
I can't recall ever having Quark. But since it can make it's way into dip, I may have to search for it.
@Koko
Koko, do you know where I can buy the quark if you are in Hong Kong. Thanks. Janet
When I first read this, I had no idea what quark was! I thought it was something from physics! Then, I remembered :) Thanks for the laugh!
