Milk Cow Kitchen

Description

MaryJane Butters wants YOU to have a cow that "pet" cow you've always fantasised about. You know, that gorgeous "beau"vine grazing outside your kitchen window. What would it feel like to bring a bucket of fresh milk into your kitchen and turn it into butter, your own yogurt, sour cream, and artisan cheeses like Manchego? MaryJane's fifth book, 'Milk Cow Kitchen', is two parts cookbook (20 step-by-step cheese recipes and 50 farmstyle meals), one part milk cow how-to, and three parts play! AUTHOR: MaryJane Butters begins each day by milking her Jersey dairy queens Maizy, Miss Daisy, and Etta Jane. MaryJane's Creamery supplies milk, Parmesan cheese, and butter to local residents in her hometown of Moscow, Idaho, where she runs her many businesses, which include a successful organic farm, product lines, and MaryJanesFarm magazine. Her Pay Dirt Farm School, now in its seventeenth year, offers a cow how-to boot camp that is hands down the best hands-on training a wanna-be milk cow owner could ever want.

MaryJane Butters publishes MaryJanesFarm magazine, runs a successful organic farm, and manages several product lines. She is also the author of several books and lives in Idaho.

In her fifth book, MaryJane covers just about everything cows and dairy. If you can make it past the food and cheese recipes without needing to eat, you're a better "cow"girl than I. But the real gem of the book is the hooves-up, how-to advice on keeping a healthy, happy, backyard cow. Whether you're a city-dweller or country gal, longtime cow-owner or recently ruminating on the idea of adding a cow to your life, I promise you have something you can learn from Milk Cow Kitchen.
