Obazda - Bavarian Style Camembert Spread

Submitted by Eismeer

"This is yummy! A Bavarian style cheese spread that works pretty well with any bread, vegetable and, of course, Brez'n (Pretzels). This is the basic version, as there are a lot of regional differences. You can add different herbs such as parsley or chives, scallions and even a tad of beer :). However paprika and carraway seed are a must to make it really Bavarian."
