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
