Made one. Doubled the lemon juice, and it turns out lovely. Thanks for the recipe! By the way, it seems to be a wrong community for this post. Nothing is bad about the cake!

That's good to know. Thank you for the feedback.
I assuming you’re not pouring a quantum fluid into the cheesecake, so what the fuck is quark?
I knew this issue was going to come up looking at the recipe! This really is a national dish. 😁
Step 2: preheat Large Hadron Colider to 5,000 degrees
Fresh cheese, similar to skyr but much softer consistency wise.
Soft cheese, close to a very thick yogurt.
In anglophone areas, I believe this is known as cream cheese.
No, cream cheese would be Frischkäse in german.
Quark is (from wikipedia) : Dictionaries sometimes translate it as curd cheese, cottage cheese, farmer cheese or junket.
I'm not going to risk if that is true ior false.
Cream cheese, in my country, has a somewhat mousse-like consistency. It's creamy.
Quark is more like a very thick and smooth yogurt, with more water. I had to strain a top layer of liquid when I opened my quark.
Are they the same and I'm being fooled by labelling? Perhaps.
Is that a brand name or the actual food? I gotta try it!
Quark is a uniquely German thing that I'm having trouble replicating ever since I moved abroad.
It's extremely thick, much more solid than yoghurt, and completely unsweetened. Mixing a box of unflavored cream cheese with a shot of milk and a pinch of salt is what I've been using instead, which gets close enough.
It's actually sold in many different other countries as well (such as The Netherlands, Belgium, France, Austria, Poland, etc).
(Edit: fixed a typo)
People that don't have quark are simply uncultured barbarians.
Sorry.
actual food.
It's basically what you get when you stop cheesemaking after the very first step.
I don't want to discourage you, but this is not how those are supposed to look.
The filling should be just a pale off-white: https://i.pinimg.com/736x/f8/a3/3d/f8a33d37d549c22893f9958f381d1f3b.jpg
Eh, both look fine to me. I like the home baked charm of the browning, cracks and all. Bet it tastes great.
Probably it was from my oven but as it is, it's fine for me.
Am german, your cheesecake looks amazing! Would obliterate 10/10
Thank you!
Don't believe that other commentator, the one my grandma makes is exactly like the one you made.
Only thing that I would change in your recipe is to add more lemon juice. Then it's tastier for me. But you have to be careful not to make it too much.
I admit I thought the exact same thing. Needs more lemon.
Agreed, I've had lots of cheesecake like this, too. They're not supposed to be pale. I mean OP's oven seems to bake a bit uneven. The right side is a bit on the darker side. Still okay, but it won't get better if you bake it longer than that.
Id eat it
There’s a basque cheesecake, tarta de queso, that is renowned for its dark top like yours. I hope the extra brown gave it the extra flavor!
That is the next in queue to make! Already have a recipe.
The one in your pic looks good but I bet the slight browing tastes amazing
Never seen a cheese cake that pale, though, OP's cake looks a bit dark maybe but still really good
Looks like a creme brulee on top. 🤤
We have a recipe in my country similar to creme brullee called leite creme. We have to try and make it someday and post the results.
Looks really good. Also try adding cherries or mandarin oranges, really compliments the flavour imo.
