A delightful celebration of butter in all its golden glory-history, how-tos, and irresistible recipes for anyone who believes everything is better with butter.
Butter is a perfect ingredient. In both cooking and baking, it can be foundational or a finishing touch. It's a flavor powerhouse, a sauce emulsifier, a taste enhancer, and above all else, a bringer of joy.
In this charming kitchen companion, you'll discover:
- Butter's curious history
- Tips for buying butter, fun ways to serve it, and its ability to transform the most humble foods-a pot of rice, a day-old muffin-into something revelatory
- How to make butter at home, then whip, clarify, or compound it to elevate your everyday cooking
- Ten recipes that showcase butter's multitudes, from Butter-Basted Scallops with Beurre Blanc to Butterscotch Pudding, each one teaching easy yet essential techniques, including browning and emulsifying
- Collectible butter accessories
- And more!
Dive headfirst into this deliciously creamy, dreamy world to get the most out of your dairy drawer. The Butter Book is a true celebration of this essential ingredient, cleverly designed and just right for home cooks, gourmands, and homesteaders alike.
