Ottolenghi Test Kitchen: Extra Good Things

Ottolenghi Test Kitchen: Extra Good Things

Summary


Ottolenghify every meal.

Flexible, flavour-packed dishes that all lend a little something 'extra' to your next meal.

It's harissa butter on a roasted mushroom, then tossed with steamed veg or stuffed into a baked potato. It's tamarind dressing on turmeric fried eggs, then drizzled over a steak the next day. Rounded off with a chapter on the 'one basics' of desserts for you to perfect and then adapt with your favourite flavour combinations, such as a basic mousse transformed into coffee mousse with tahini fudge.

This is cooking it forward, Ottolenghi style, filling your cupboards with adaptable homemade ingredients to add some oomph to every mealtime.

Reviews

  • 'Ottolenghi's test kitchen under a railway arch, where he and his team conjure up new recipes, has always felt like my version of Dahl's chocolate factory, and its spirit inhabits Ottolenghi's Instagram account. At a time when everyone and their pug is doing Insta-cookalongs, his is still something special'
    Marina O'Loughlin, Sunday Times

About the authors

Yotam Ottolenghi

Yotam Ottolenghi is the restaurateur and chef-patron of the six London-based Ottolenghi delis, as well as the NOPI and ROVI restaurants. He is the author of eight bestselling and multi-award-winning cookery books. Yotam has been a weekly columnist for the Saturday Guardian for over thirteen years and is a regular contributor to the New York Times. His championing of vegetables, as well as ingredients once seen as 'exotic', has led to what some call 'The Ottolenghi effect'. This is shorthand for the creation of a meal which is full of colour, flavour, bounty and sunshine. Yotam lives in London with his family. www.ottolenghi.co.uk @Ottolenghi
