not great, the only recipe I tried so far had incorrect directions
Derived From Web , Dec 5, 2020
As someone who uses Cooks Illustrated recipes only, I am used to things being done correctly. That is not a trust that you should give this book. The first recipe I tried was for Halloumi, and after purchasing all equipment and shelling for raw milk, I followed exactly the recipe and got a super salty cheese. I knew I had measured correctly, so I contacted the website and was told that this recipe was incorrect and that the brine was way too concentrated for this cheese. If you buy this book, use the brine listed in the Halloumi recipe, use probably a half-diluted version. I'm going to give a cheddar a try and hope that they got the recipe right, I mean it is a recipe book after all.

Can't really rank much as I am buying this for later use and nothing beats having a printed copy in our hands despite readily available info on the Internet.
