Ottolenghi Comfort
Ottolenghi COMFORT is the latest culinary masterpiece by Yotam Ottolenghi, his first major cookbook since Ottolenghi SIMPLE and Ottolenghi FLAVOUR. This highly anticipated release offers over 100 irresistible, flavour-rich recipes that transform everyday comfort food into extraordinary dishes, all inspired by memories of childhood, home, and travel.
From hearty roast chicken and vibrant curries to elevated pasta dishes like Caramelised Onion Orecchiette with Hazelnuts & Crispy Sage, Ottolenghi brings his signature flair to familiar, feel-good meals. Comfort food is reimagined with modern twists, like Garlicky Aligot Potato with Leeks & Thyme or Cheesy Bread Soup with Savoy Cabbage & Cavolo Nero.
Ottolenghi COMFORT is more than just a cookbook—it’s a celebration of food as a bridge between generations, places, and memories, weaving nostalgia with innovation. This is comfort food, done Ottolenghi style.
