        40 Easy Recipes to Make Cheese at Home

        by Marlene Kelnreiter

        Just give up the city life and the office job and spend some time in the alps instead? Does it work, does it make everything better? Is time spend in a remote mountain hut a kind of therapy? Does it change you, or something, and if so, how? Marlene Kelnreiter answers these questions in the form of her field reports – the beautiful photographs that were taken to accompany Kelnreiter's alpine summers allow readers to immerse themselves deeply in the melancholy of her diary-like stories. And even if you don't get alp grass under your feet yourself straight away, this book leaves you with the feeling of a short, mental exit from everyday life. And it certainly makes you want to try it all out for yourself. "Every summer, Marlene Kelnreiter moves from the city to the mountains to turn dreams into reality and, above all, milk into cheese. Instructed in the craft of cheese making by expert dairymen, Marlene now indulges in the joy of coagulation of the white gold even in winter and away from the alpine cheese dairies. Wild fermentation can also be used to produce natural, delicious and healthy dairy products at home. In this book, the author shares the knowledge she has acquired so far and gently wields the whisk with you to turn fresh milk into delicious cream cheese, and more!"
