This is a great cheese resource, and one worth keeping on my shelves. This coffee table-sized quality hardcover book with color photographs uses single pages to highlight each cheese, describing their origins, how they are best served, and what wines to use for pairing.

Though the book is now dated, as it was published in 2006, the information is still largely accurate. I should note that the book is largely intended for an American audience that is seeking cheeses available within the country, but there are a few exceptions for recommendations abroad.… (más)

A gorgeously illustrated cookbook with roughly 65-70 recipes incorporating yogurt. Most recipes are fairly easy to follow but some recipes include ingredients that may be harder to find in more rural areas (or just an ingredient not often used by most readers). The history of yogurt, basic info about yogurt, and a few differences between yogurt types are in sections near the beginning of the book. The rest of this cookbook is the recipe part separated by meal type (breakfast, soups, desserts, etc). I am looking forward to the avacado soup recipe. Overall, a good book if you like yogurt.
