  • Best Book on Cheese Making Around
    Allow me to be brief: this is the best instructional manual available for those who wish to make cheese from home, as I have for years. Even though not a novice, Ms. Carroll's tome has taught me additional insight that will allow me to tackle more complicated and delicate cheeses. Outstanding explanations (in depth) on techniques, ingredients and sterility. Excellent recipes. Cannot recommend this book highly enough.
