[Sca-cooks] American Substitution and Translation

[Stefan li Rous]

Aelina the Saami asked:
<<< What is quark called in the United States? I don't want to use  
cottage cheese. Any ideas for substitutions or recipes?
As for kvass, the book calls it "bread soup" but I also know it as an  
alcohol drink. Any ideas what this could be or use as a substitute? >>>

Here's what I have in the BEVERAGES section of the Florilegium. I  
don't know of any commercial sources here. There might be some in  
Russia.
kvass-msg (78K) 4/18/10 Russian drink made from bread or grains.
