You can make your own cheese simply, using the very best recipe book to have if TSHTF. It's “Eating Off The Grid”, storing and cooking foods without electricity, by Denise Hansen,MS,RD.

Everything in that book is made with nothing that goes in the fridge. I had email with Denise Hanson and she knows her business - Master of Science, Registered Dietitian, Brigham Young University, Utah, the best dietary university in the country. You can buy this great book at:

You will know how fine it is when you read the material before the recipes start. Since with no power, cooked food can't be kept long, her recipes take that into consideration.

Anyway, she makes her own cheese. “Easy Cheese” is on page 37. “Pepper Cheese” is on page 38. You use “Easy Cheese” to make “Pepper Cheese” and it stores for a month without refrigeration. Amazing.

I flat out encourage everyone to have this particular recipe book. It's the only one I need when there is no power and I've got most every other recipe book for when TSHTF and they just stay on the shelf, mostly useless recipes without power. What is that one - “Cooking with Home Storage” - I have that. Have to have power and fridge, etc.,for those recipes - useless cook book.
