Olivia Potts: Butter - a celebration

This week, we’re celebrating three years of Cooking the Books
with its very first guest, Olivia Potts and her latest book,
Butter: A Celebration.


Her journey from barrister to butter, her latest book is told
with what Nigella calls 'her devilish wit', both in her
award-winning memoir, A Half Baked Idea and now in a book that
has GONG written all over it: Butter: a
Celebration.   


She’s the host of the Spectator podcast, she writes for the
Spectator magazine as well as running a successful catering
company with her kitchen wife, best friend and fellow food
writer, Kate Young. And here she talks about the enduring allure
of one of the most versatile ingredients in the larder.
