Did you know if you shake heavy cream in a jar for about 20 minutes, you’ll have butter? Sure, you can use a churn, but this way requires no extra equipment and is a great upper body work out! This was among the many things I learned in a whirlwind bread, butter and cheese making class that I photographed last weekend for an upcoming magazine article on cooking classes in the state. The class was part of a DIY series of classes at Wolfe’s Neck Farm in Freeport that is teaching participants to make things like marmalade, cheese, wine, soap, candles and knitted items. Check out the schedule and sign up for a class or two that will teach you some fun ways to be more self-sufficient.
