Ottolenghi Comfort: A Cookbook

In Ottolenghi Comfort, beloved chef Yotam Ottolenghi brings his inspiring, flavor-forward talent to comfort dishes. This lovely volume has arrived just in time for autumn's cozy days and nights, packed with both game-changing, low-lift recipes as well as those to which you may be inspired to devote an afternoon. 

With inventive dishes that exude comfort to both cook and eat, these 100+ culinary creations conceived along with co-authors Helen Goh, Verena Lochmuller, and Tara Wigley, celebrate comfort in all its incarnations. From childhood and travel memories to breaking bread with those we cherish, this lovely book is a tribute to the intersection of food and friends and the connections they build together.

For Ottolenghi, a simple bowl of pasta is transformed with sublime ingredients into Caramelized Onion Orecchiette with Hazelnuts & Crispy Sage, a warming soup into Cheesy Bread Soup with Savoy Cabbage & Cavolo Nero, and humble potatoes become transcendent as Garlicky Aligot Potato with Leeks & Thyme.  Comfort tackles everything from crepes to hummus, lamb meatloaf to quick ramen, and savory rugelah to velvety chocolate mousse.

Filled with meals that are easy and exciting, familiar and fresh, new and nostalgic, revelatory yet reassuring, you're sure to find new favorites that become part of your comfort repertoire. Delve into butter beans with the last of the season's cherry tomatoes, chicken and lime leaf curry with noodles, and luscious chocolate ripple fridge cake. Noted as one of NPR's best Cookbooks of the Year, this innovative collection of new recipes invites a deeper exploration of comfort cuisine and its ability to nourish and soothe us body and soul.
