Yes, I am referring to yet another book that I'm working on for Lark by "hipster homesteader" (so dubbed by this month's issue of Verve magazine) Ashley English. Last week, at a furiously productive pace, we finished shooting the third book in the Homemade Living series on all thing dairy: soft and hard cheeses, yogurt and butter, to name a few. Lots of WHITE THINGS to shoot and make interesting - no small challenge. With the visual talents of art director Chris Bryant, the organizational skills of editor Nicole McConville, and the delicious recipes of author Ashley English, we had a good running start. As with the other two books we shot last summer, Keeping Chickens and Canning and Preserving, the real bonus was being able to to eat what we photographed, which included saag paneer, ricotta pizza, beer cheese fondue, cucumber soup and strawberry chevre ice cream. Ashley made cheese making look so easy that I've ordered a few supplies and ingredients - it doesn't take much to start making your own cheese.
