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.

This new book about the joys of butter will make your heart melt.--Vogue

It is shaped like a stick of butter. It is about butter. It will make you feel stupid for not having thought harder about butter before now, which is the correct emotional response.--Sohla El-Waylly, author of Start Here

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!
