Ottolenghi Flavor reimagines comfort food with over 100 global, personal recipes.
Yotam Ottolenghi--the beloved chef who has captured the hearts of homecooks looking for inspiration and great-tasting cooking--is back. In
Ottolenghi Comfort, he brings his inspiring, flavor-forward cooking to comfort dishes.
With game-changing low-lift recipes as well as recipes to spend an afternoon on,
Ottolenghi Comfort presents creative dishes that are comfortable to both cook and eat. In more than 100 recipes, Ottolenghi--and co-authors Helen Goh, Verena Lochmuller, and Tara Wigley--bring together childhood memories and travels around the world, celebrating food and friends and the connections they build together, ones to pass on from generation to generation.
For Ottolenghi, a bowl of pasta becomes
Caramelized Onion Orecchiette with Hazelnuts & Crispy Sage, a warming soup is
Cheesy Bread Soup with Savoy Cabbage & Cavolo Nero, and potatoes are transformed into
Garlicky Aligot Potato with Leeks & Thyme. In
Comfort, he tackles everything from crepes to hummus; lamb meatloaf to quick ramen; savory rugelah to chocolate mousse.
This is a book filled with meals that are easy
and exciting, familiar
and fresh, new
and nostalgic, revelatory
yet reassuring.
