- Garnish with chopped bell pepper or pickled cucumbers or capers or pink radish slices.

Notes
- 20% fat fresh cottage cheese, such as the Slovakian bryndza sheep cheese, that would be the most suitable choice. Of course, these are hard to get by, so 4% to 6% cottage cheese will have to do. If your cottage contains liquids, strain it with a cheese cloth. In Austria, we use Topfen or, in Germany, Quark.
- ½ cup cottage cheese is about 4 ounces or 110 grams.
- Use a cottage cheese rich in fats for the best results, avoid low-fat cottage cheese! If you can get cottage cheese from a farmer's market, that would be the best option. If you can get 20% fat fresh cottage cheese, such as the Slovakian bryndza sheep cheese, that would be the most suitable choice. Of course, these are hard to get by, so 4% to 6% cottage cheese will have to do. If your cottage contains liquids, strain it with a cheese cloth. In Austria, we use Topfen or, in Germany, Quark.
- You can also use Mascarpone or other flavorless plain cream cheese.
- In Eastern Europe, sheep cream cheese is still very common, and it lends the Liptauer a certain special flavor.
