This month Stephanie invites us to the virtual blog party in Red and Hot. For the cocktail I chose Campari – what else? (German ad)
Latin Lover’s Kiss:
4 ice cubes
3 cl Campari
1 cl raspberry sirup
2 cl cream
Shake well over ice in a shaker, and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Add a wedge of blood orange and serve.

And we’ll have
Red Bell Dippers with hot Ajvar Quark
Serve the dip in a bowl or in red bell pepper.
500 g quark
1 orange, juice and peel
5-6 tbsp. Ajvar
1/2 lemon, the juice
salt
cayenne pepper
1 red bell pepper
Give quark into a bowl. Add remaining ingredients, mix well and season to taste. Use one third of the bell pepper as a bowl, cut the remaining pepper into stripes to dip.
Blog Party
Hello again!
I’m truly happy you could join us again for Blog Party…and I love love your entry. Your cocktail looks divine, and the appetizers sounds fab. I have a question, though…what is quark? The dish is clearly some kind of cheese-mixed dip (I can’t say I’m familiar with Ajvar), but I have no idea what Quark is…except for a Ferengi on Deep Space Nine!!!
Thanks so much for coming, and watch fhe round-up Saturday.

Quark is a (delicious) diary product, the translation is curd cheese, see here and if you want to brush up your German here. As far as I know it is not common in the US, but here’s a recipe.
I found a wonderfull explanation in English
Quark!
I miss quark! When I arrived in Singapore, I spent the first month asking everyone if they had quark and received many strange looks. Even in Carrefour! Fabulous recipe.
