Directions
In Austria, a wide variety of Aufstriche — savory sandwich spreads — are very popular. You’ll find them served in traditional wine taverns called Heuriger, as well as in cafés, hotels, and restaurants, especially at breakfast. These spreads are typically made with a base of quark or cream cheese, combined with various flavorful ingredients like paprika, spring onions, blue cheese, fresh herbs, and more.
The most iconic spread is Liptauer — a creamy cheese spread with deep roots in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It remains popular today in Austria, Slovakia, and Hungary. The name comes from the Slovak region of Liptov, which was part of the empire.
The classic version of Liptauer is made with cow’s milk cream cheese — but today, we’re making a dairy-free twist! You can use store-bought vegan cream cheese or make your own from scratch.
For a more festive or flavorful version, feel free to add capers, anchovies, mustard, pickles, chopped herbs, green onions, or garlic to the basic recipe.
Bon Appetit!

Dice the onions and bell peppers into very fine cubes. Mix cream cheese, yeast (if using) and ground paprika until smooth. Then add onion and red pepper and mix it all. Season with salt, black pepper, add honey and lemon juice to taste. Put it in the fridge for an hour. Serve Liptauer spread with gluten-free crispbread. |
