Today I’ll show you my Liptauer Recipe.

I really like this cheese. Homemade cheese tastes best.

I prefer to refine this spread with crispy herbs and short fried vegetables.  

The cheese is a classic spread from Austria and resembles the Obazda from Bavaria.

All these spreads, like the potato cheese, the vegan lard and the herb quark, go well with a good snack and bring variety for dinner.

The preparation takes about 25 minutes. I wish you every success and look forward to your comments.

3. Prepare Liptauer Spread Yourself

Is it worth the effort? In Austria you can buy the spicy cheese from different manufacturers in the supermarket.

Nevertheless, the homemade Cheese still tastes best!

Today I will show you an extraordinary idea with lots of vegetables.

Here, fried herbs are added to the bread as topping. 

The result is really colorful and tastes great!

To prepare Liptau bread colourful, such a spread pleases the eye!

4. Shopping List Liptauer

For homemade Austrian Cheese you need:

Bread, fresh brown bread or farmer’s bread, grain bread,
pumpernickel, baguette, toast, rye bread or home-baked bread according to your wishes.

Tip from Chef Thomas Sixt

I have prepared a wonderful wholemeal bread recipe for you elsewhere.

Serve Liptauer breads as finger food at your next party. It looks great and makes your vegetarian guests happy too.

5. Heurigen Spread, “Gypsy Spread” Particularly Tasty

Add freshly roasted peppers to the Liptov spread.

You can quickly prepare the vegetables, fry them in the pan and then serve with the cheese.

Before adding the pepper cubes to the pan, fry a few needles of rosemary.

The fragrant and crispy rosemary is a fantastic addition to this preparation!

Fried paprika cubes in the pan. You can also add zucchini cubes!
