The art of natural cheesemaking : using traditional, non-industrial methods and raw ingredients to make the world's best cheeses
Asher,David (1980 -)
The art of natural cheesemaking : using traditional, non-industrial methods and raw ingredients to make the world's best cheeses / David Asher ; foreword by Sandor Ellix Katz ; photographs by Kelly Brown - White River Junction, VT : Chelsea Green Publishing , 2015 - 298 p. : illus. ; 26 cm
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Most DIY cheesemaking books are hard to follow, complicated, and confusing, and call for the use of packaged freeze-dried cultures, chemical additives, and expensive cheesemaking equipment. For though bread baking has its sourdough, brewing its lambic ales, and pickling its wild fermentation, standard Western cheesemaking practice today is decidedly unnatural. In The Art of Natural Cheesemaking, David Asher practices and preaches a traditional, but increasingly countercultural, way of making cheese one that is natural and intuitive, grounded in ecological principles and biological science. Including more than 35 step-by-step recipes from the Black Sheep School of Cheesemaking.
