Authentic Bavarian Obatzda is a cheese spread of its own kind. To me it is one of the most delicious things, bavarians can offer. You may buy it in a supermarket all over Bavaria, but the home-made version cannot be topped. Mostly you only get a basic variation, that does not offer the strong cheesy and fruity taste of this one. Try it and die for it.
Ingredients:
- 1 Camembert (125 g)
- 125 g Cream Cheese
- 50 g Butter
- 4 Tablespoons Cream
- Bacon or Bacon Cubes
- 1 Pear
- 1 Green Onion
- Half Teaspoon of Ground Caraway and black Pepper
Preparation:
- Cut Camembert in small pieces. It will work best, if the cheese is not too cold. Mix camembert with cream cheese. Cut bacon and green onion into small cubes or pieces. Also cut half of the pear into small cubes.
- Heat butter in a pan and add the bacon cubes. Fry until the cubes are slightly roasted. Put butter and bacon into your camembert-and-cream-cheese-mix, while it is still warm. Add all the other ingredients and mix it all by using a fork.
- Put the whole thing into the fridge for some hours, otherwise it will be too soft. You need to eat it within a few days otherwise the pear will become unsavory.

Enjoy this recipe for an authentic bavarian obatzda with bretzel, on a sandwich or as a dip. If you want the Obatzda to be more liquid, just add some more cream. The pear gives a slight taste of sweetness and fruits and it perfectly points out the intensive taste of the bacon. The basic recipe is without onions, pear, bacon and cream. You may mix in whatever you like. I have tried many variations but I find this one the best.
