Curd cheese is a smooth cheese made from curdled milk. I don't know what 
it
might be called in other parts of the world. I am in England.the German
Quark is just about the same. You will need to talk to someone who runs 
a
good Deli. It has the texture of creamed butter, but don't try that. It 
is
used to make cheesecakes as an alternative to cream cheese, but only has
moderate amounts of fat. Cream cheese is very fat. Good hunting. please 
let
me know your local name for it. If you have Czechs in your area, they would
know it as "Tvaroh". It definitely is a simple cheese and not fermented 
like
yoghurt.
