Handkäs mit Musik

This famous cheese dish from traditional Hessian cuisine is prepared by pouring a sharp marinade of vinegar, oil, thinly sliced onion and caraway seeds over a matured sour milk cheese (Handkäs). The name 'Musik' (music) comes from the flatulence caused by the cheese and onion. It is typically served with dark bread or potatoes.
