>what's the difference, which do you prefer?
NY cheesecake is made with cream cheese which makes the filling very smooth and it's higher in fat. I find it somewhat bland. There's Italian cheesecake made with ricotta which is more similar to kasekuchen, it has a grainy texture which I like. Italian cheesecake usually doesn't have a crust though.

i just asked llm, apparently new yawk version is heavier, more like fudge, and perhaps tangier due to the addition of different types of cream. i've never had it so idk, the normal kind is pretty good around holidays. well, cya!

that cheese cake is WAY over cooked. it's going to be dry and mealy.
properly cooked cheese cake will not be even slightly brown on top.

>cheesecake tastes bad because cream cheese tastes bad.
no it doesn't.

New York style cheesecake is amazing, if you make or buy a good one. Generally if you buy one, though, it's gonna be second or third rate, made with preservatives that adulterate the flavor, and have sat around for a while.

NY cheesecake is overly sweet and usually tastes overpoweringly of cream cheese. If you could eat that shit with a spoon then you will like NY cheesecake. Käsekuchen is more flan (the French kind) adjacent in that it lends itself better to being combined with fruit and the like. Flan itself is ofc a custard which makes it even more neutral though, while Quark used for cheesecake adds lactic acid that contrasts the sweetness.

tasted it and saw no issue, realized it only after I opened the fridge and saw the cream I bought for the cake untouched. guess it'd be more airy with it the cream folded in but it's fine without. fairly simple ingredients too especially since quark is easy to get here
