I'm new to this and would like to make quark. Can I use this culture right out of the packet to mix with milk or do I have to make a mother culture?

Actually you do not need a culture to make quark. You can get several receipts on google that are simple to follow.

Is this vegan, are any animal-derived ingredients used in process, even if not present in the final product?

Hi, this is from the manufacturer: This Mesophilic starter culture can be used to make homemade Camembert, Brie, blue cheese, mozzarella, Chevre, feta, Fromage Blanc and other cheeses. Vegan Use Disclaimer: This product is produced using lactose as a fermentation nutrient. Hope this answers your question and if not, please reach back out to me. Best, Paula

It’s used for culturing dairy products, the product itself is may be but the end result won’t be
