Questions and Answers – Harzer Cheese

 

 

Question:

What is a suitable substitute for sour milk cheese?  I’m going to use it in a fondue.  It calls for Harzer Cheese which I can’t find locally.  Thanks!

 

Answer: 

Harzer (Harzer) cheese is a German sour milk cheese made from low-fat curd cheese, which contains only about 1% fat (such as cottage cheese).  From my research, it is a very strong-tasting cheese that is a very acquired taste and is often substituted for Limburger cheese.  I am not sure how it would substitute in a fondue recipe or even if you would want it in a fondue.
