The Home Creamery: Make Your Own Fresh Dairy Products; Easy Recipes for Butter, Yogurt, Sour Cream, Creme Fraiche, Cream Cheese, Ricotta,

Love love love this book. Full of great, easy to understand and follow recipes. It even includes a list of things you need to get your cheese making process going and a few websites to find the items at!!! If you're looking to jump into soft cheese making then this is a great book to start with. I've been happy with all I've tried out of it so far....so yummy!

This is a good beginners book for soft cheese making. There are lots of easy-to-follow recipes for everything from butter to creme fraiche to mozzarella, just about any soft cheese you can imagine. Another nice quality this book has is that there are usually a few variations for a particular recipe, which comes in handy if you are short on a particular ingredient. I've made several recipes from this book with both cow's milk as well as goat's milk that have all come out well. Some of the recipes are a little confusing and leave a little room for guessing. As with anything, the first time trying a new recipe may be a little awkward, but you'll soon get the hang of it. I would definitely recommend this book to new cheese makers.

Really liked the book. The receipes are easy to follow. My mother-in-law and nephew made homemade butter a couple of weekends ago. Excellent.

"The Home Creamery" could've been featured and recommended for library acquisition in our 'Food and Wine' section, but is also of immense interest and value for its broader interest to any rural homeowner seeking to create a 'home creamery' environment by making butter, yogurt, source cream ricotta and more. A commercial kitchen isn't necessary to produce these or fresh buttermilk or cram cheese: instructions tell how to turn fresh milk and cream into cultured dairy products and offer accompanying instruction on using them in other recipes. Both cookbook and rural homeowner's libraries will find it a popular lend.

As a beginner to cheese making, this book is wonderful. I found the instructions easy to understand and the results were delicious. Now I make all my cheese & butter. Thanks to the author. My family & I love it.
