Most southern cooks will agree with Debbie Moose when she writes,
""Like a full moon on a warm southern night, buttermilk makes
something special happen."" Buttermilk explores the rich
possibilities of this beloved ingredient and offers remarkably
wide-ranging recipes for its use in cooking and baking--and
drinking, including The Vanderbilt Fugitive, a buttermilk-based
cocktail. Buttermilk includes fifty recipes--most of which are
uniquely southern, with some decidedly cosmopolitan additions--from
Fiery Fried Chicken to Lavender Ice Cream to Mango-Spice Lassi. For
each recipe, Moose includes background information, snappy
anecdotes, and preparation tips. Replete with helpful hints and
advice for finding the best quality buttermilk available, this
cookbook is indispensable for anyone who wants to learn more about
this tangy cooking staple.
This book will appeal to anyone with a love of cheese. The text
covers every aspect of making cheese at home, from the tools and
equipment needed and basic recipes to making more complex cheeses
and advice on setting up a small cheese business. You do not need
to be scientifically trained to make cheese, nor do you need to be
an accomplished cook or possess expensive specialist equipment.Here
Rita Ash shows just how simple the process is and how, with a
little care and attention, anyone can produce delicious hand-made
cheeses at home. Each of the recipes are clearly explained and
include suggested uses for each of the finished cheeses. As no
prior knowledge is assumed, the book is suitable for beginners and
more experienced cheese makers alike.
