White Goat Cheddar, Danish Blue, Stilton, Holland Gouda. If you're confident in the kitchen and crave cheese, you can learn to make it at home. Each of these 30 recipes is rated by difficulty: Easy would be the soft French cheese, Fromage Blanc; Medium, due to the handwork, patience, and time, would be Stilton; and Difficult, for those who enjoy a challenge and love puttering about the kitchen, would be Camembert, because it takes about 9 hours to complete the processes. Each recipe alerts you to the amount of time involved, and how best to store your finished cheese. You're likely to own some of the supplies and equipment required, and the recipe will alert you when a cheese requires specific products or molds, all of which are easily obtainable. So what could be better than impressing your dinner guests with homemade Feta with pita chips, or that Feta Spinach Olive Pie recipe that incorporates it
Great book if you are thinking about trying to make cheese in your own kitchen. My husband has used it to make several batches of cheese and the recipes are easy to follow and have turned out very tasty!
Beautiful and mmmmgoooodd

I hate Ricki Carroll's book. So there. And I did not come to this book as a virgin cheesemaker, so I don't know really how helpful it would be for a beginner but I think *anyone* could follow these instructions and make good and glorious cheeses. If you are new to cheese, know that cheese is a forgiving thing, that there are always options, and that most of the time, the results are edible no matter what. This book has been a great resource and an inspiration for me.
Very good

This book shall get you started in home cheesemaking. It is well written it is clear and it has lots of beautiful pictures. It contains a little less info than the similar book authored by Carroll. Buy one or the other.
