«The last word on butter. Everyone who cooks needs this book.»

Diana Henry

This is, quite frankly, my dream book. Buttery bliss from cover to cover.

Nigella Lawson

«A love letter to the household staple.»

Stylist

«An uplifting tribute to the singular power of butter to elevate any dish, whether basted onto juicy grilled scallops or drizzled over brioche. »

Harper’s Bazaar

«Olivia's book walks through the fundamentals of cooking with butter . . . then ventures into recipes and techniques to bring the best out of butter and transform your cooking. »

BBC Good Food

«It takes a certain chutzpah to write an entire cookbook dedicated to butter, but Olivia Potts carries it off. Her devotion to the yellow fat is endearing. In a collection of excellent recipes and essays she makes the case for more buttery delight in our lives. As she explains, butter has the power to transform the flavour and texture of countless dishes, from mashed potatoes and scrambled eggs to lobster rolls and tarte au citron.»
