Designed as a reference for the student and home cheese-maker,
Charles Thom and Walter Fisk's 1918 book is intended to interpret
the process of making and handling a variety of cheeses that are
either made commerically or widely imported in America.
Charles Porter's 1911 "Milk diet..." advocates healing the body
through "an ample supply of the only food that will make an
immediate large production of blood possible, --milk."
Long and Benson's 1896 work provides instruction on the manufacture
of specific cheeses. The authors pay particular attention to
gourmet cheese varieties that were more usually produced in Europe,
including gorgonzola, camembert, and brie before turning their
attention to the best methods for manufacturing traditional English
cheeses such as Cheddar, Stilton, Cheshire, and Wensleydale.
Van Slyke and Publow's 1913 work is a comprehensive source of
information on American cheese-making. A vital reference for anyone
interested in making cheese.
Now in paperback for the first time, the only comprehensive book on
egg cookery, winner of a James Beard Award.
Beginning with basics, such as how to make perfect scrambled eggs,
and continuing on to sandwiches, soups, pastas, quiches, souffles,
and delectable meringues and cakes, The Good Egg artfully describes
the many uses of one of cooking's most essential and healthful
ingredients.
Who is the master confectioner? He is the man who is an expert in
his trade, who knows his business from A to Z, and can teach others
to become proficient in this field. The author of this book began
as a candymaker in early youth and has devoted his entire life to
candymaking. He has written this book so that others may benefit
from fifty-two years of experience and hard work. Many good candy
books have been published, but as a rule they do not cover the
retail and smaller wholesale manufacturing field completely. For
example: A certain formula, though it may be the best, calls for
steam or vacuum cooking. This will not suit the candymaker who uses
open-fire cooking. Here is only one example in a hundred where a
formula that is suitable for the large candy factory will not give
good results in the medium shop. The large candy manufacturer has
his highly paid executive to take care of all his problems, but the
smaller manufacturer has his hands full with making and selling his
products. He is only too likely to neglect the candymaking end.
That is why this book should be of particular interest to the
retail and medium-wholesale candymaker. The man who must know his
business from A to Z should find this work a treasury of
candymaking.
Easy-to-make recipes for great homemade yogurt that is healthy
and delicious.
Making yogurt at home is surprisingly easy, and these homemade
versions taste so much better than any brand available from a
store. Perhaps most importantly, the home cook can control all of
the ingredients, from organic cow's milk and soy milk from a
farmer's market to ingredients found at a health food store or
local grocer. Pat Crocker's recipes cover every taste and
variation, from the sweetness to the thickness.
The home cook needs just three key elements to get started:
fresh milk (or other liquid), live bacterial culture and
temperature control. The only equipment needed are a stainless
steel saucepan, a thermometer and a constant heat source or an
electric yogurt maker.
