About the Book

This illustrated beginner's guide covers everything you need to know to start making cheese at home--from tools and techniques to basic milk chemistry. While the craft of home cheesemaking gains in popularity, most books on the subject gloss over the fundamentals. Mastering Basic Cheesemaking is a complete hands-on guide to making cheese and other fermented dairy products from scratch, geared toward helping the novice cheesemaker get started in their home kitchens. This fully illustrated practical guide covers topics such as: Understanding your ingredients, tools and techniques Whipping up "instant cheeses" such as ricotta and paneer while learning basic milk chemistry Progressing to fermented dairy products such as kefir, yogurt and sour cream Using bacteria and coagulant to create spreadable and tender cheeses like quark, chevre, cream cheese and American style cottage cheese Graduating to curdled, aged and ripened cheese--mozzarella, feta, cheddar, gouda, and parmesan.

Not just another how-to, this beginner's book is designed to teach. The reader is seamlessly led through a progression of recipes intended to bring about a true understanding of what is happening in the vat. This book is all about success! I love it." -- KIRSTEN K.

With Mastering Basic Cheesemaking , she turns her attention to home cheesemaking and creates another must-have title. Writing in a way that demystifies the process and makes it accessible to everyone, Caldwell takes the reader logically through many different styles of cheese. This is the kind of book where you don't realize how much you are learning until you get to the end and eat your creations. If you can use a cookbook, this book will show you how to make some great cheese... and also teach you how you did it." -- GORDON EDGAR, author of Cheesemonger: A Life on the Wedge, Cheddar: A Journey to the Heart of America's Most Iconic Cheese and cheese buyer for Rainbow Grocery Cooperative in San Francisco since 1994.
