Sales of the spread are soaring. But what to do with it, aside from slathering it on toast?
We are in the midst of a butter boom. One of the few upsides to this stupid year is that people are cooking at home with more regularity, and the knock-on effect is that butter sales are soaring. In the US, butter production has returned to levels last seen in 1943. This is brilliant news, because it gives us all an excuse to cook massively butter-heavy dishes again. It’s worth pointing out that none of these can even remotely be considered health food. But that’s by the by, because they are all very delicious.
