Reviews
"This may be more about butter than seems possible but proves that close study can reveal rich history, lore and practical information. All that and charm too, along with explicit recipes that classically depend upon butter." --Mimi Sheraton, author of 1000 Foods to Eat Before You Die "I was raised on margarine, but once I tasted butter, there was no turning back. Elaine Khosrova is obviously a butter lover, too. Her book, Butter: A Rich History , is a fascinating, tasty read, edifying from every point of view--historical, cultural, and culinary. And what a bonus to have a collection of essential classic butter recipes included." --David Tanis, author of A Platter of Figs and Other Recipes "Following the path blazed by Margaret Visser in Much Depends on Dinner , Elaine Khosrova makes much of butter and the ruminants whose milk man churns. You will meet dairymaids "ripe with fertile innuendo" and Bhutanese yak herders. You will revel in dairy physics. And you may never eat margarine again." --John T Edge, author of The Potlikker Papers: A Food History of the Modern South

Synopsis
"Edifying from every point of view--historical, cultural, and culinary." --David Tanis, author of A Platter of Figs and Other Recipes It's a culinary catalyst, an agent of change, a gastronomic rock star. Ubiquitous in the world's most fabulous cuisines, butter is boss. Here, it finally gets its due. After traveling across three continents to stalk the modern story of butter, award-winning food writer and former pastry chef Elaine Khosrova serves up a story as rich, textured, and culturally relevant as butter itself. From its humble agrarian origins to its present-day artisanal glory, butter has a fascinating story to tell, and Khosrova is the perfect person to tell it. With tales about the ancient butter bogs of Ireland, the pleasure dairies of France, and the sacred butter sculptures of Tibet, Khosrova details butter's role in history, politics, economics, nutrition, and even spirituality and art. Readers will also find the essential collection of core butter recipes, including beurre mani , croissants, p te bris e, and the only buttercream frosting anyone will ever need, as well as practical how-tos for making various types of butter at home--or shopping for the best.

This is one of those definitive books on a subject that every cook should have." --Elisabeth Prueitt, co-owner of Tartine Bakery "The history of one of the most delectable ingredients throughout our many cultures and geography over time is wonderfully churned and emulsified in Khosrova's Butter . . . Delightful storytelling." --Elizabeth Falkner, author of Demolition Desserts: Recipes from Citizen Cake, "Edifying from every point of view--historical, cultural, and culinary." --David Tanis, author of A Platter of Figs and Other Recipes It's a culinary catalyst, an agent of change, a gastronomic rock star.

No mention, no photos, no reply to my messages. I’m a seller myself and would never ship something like this without disclosure. I cleaned and conditioned it, but that doesn’t excuse the misrepresentation. The username is “shananagains,” and sadly, the name fits. Buyers: check the photos—and the feedback—before you commit.
