Instructions

  1. Wash, clean and stone the plums. Simmer with the water and sugar for about 20 minutes and then let cool down completely, preferably overnight.
  2. Drain the plums and collect the juice. Pour the juice up to 150 ml with water if necessary. Hold back a little, about 1 tablespoon per glass.
  3. Mix the juice, sugar, salt, lemon juice and lemon zest with the starch well. Add the quark and whip until creamy.
  4. First put some quark in a glass, then layer plums, then again quark and so on. Finish with a layer of curd. Pour the remaining juice on the quark. Marble carefully with a fork and decorate with chocolate chips.
  5. Tip: If you want something crispy with you, you can layer crumbled shortbread biscuits, ladyfingers or meringue. In autumn, coarsely chopped nuts also go well with it.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
