Just like Ottolenghi Test Kitchen: Shelf Love, Ottolenghi Test Kitchen: Extra Good Things is all about bringing big flavor and flexibility to every meal, with pantry staples and freezer-friendly ingredients. This time, Yotam, Noor, and the rest of the test kitchen team bring you delicious recipes that'll you love to cook on a weeknight, each with a special element that can be used to create endless Ottolenghi-inspired possibilties. These special elements are the makings of the most fantastic pantry to have at your fingertips--condiments with a little bit of funk or crunch, irresistible sauces, zippy dressings and drizzles, and more make-ahead items you'll use over and over throughout the week, to elevate every meal with that little extra Ottolenghi touch. These crave-worthy additions will instantly become favorites in your repertoire for their ability to be used in countless ways. Maybe you'll use the extra Marinated Feta from Oven-Braised Chickpeas with Carrots and Dates to give oomph to a salad or toast the next day. Or, maybe you'll use the Harissa Butter that shines in Mushroom Kiev to work magic in future mashed potatoes or steamed veggies. Or perhaps you'll fall in love with the Tamarind Dressing used for Turmeric-Fried Eggs, and later spoon it over a steak. The desserts, too,are highly adaptable and meant to be built upon, with elevated but simple classics like mousse, crostata, and granita that give you "one basic" treatment to teach you the essential technique, but that you can riff on immediately with your own preferred flavor combinations. These are recipes for playing it forward, Ottolenghi style--filling your cupboards with adaptable, homemade ingredients to add some oomph to every mealtime.

Ottolenghi Test Kitchen: Extra Good Things

Ottolenghi Test Kitchen

Relaxed, flexible home cooking from Yotam Ottolenghi and his superteam. Whether they're conjuring up new recipes or cooking for themselves at home, the Ottolenghi Test Kitchen team do what we all do: they raid their kitchens. But then, they turn whatever they find into approachable creations with an 'Ottolenghi' twist. This instinct is in perfect sync with recent times, when we've all been standing in front of our kitchen shelves, our cupboards and our fridges, wondering what to cook with what we've got; how to put a can of chickpeas or a bag of frozen peas to good use, instead of taking an extra trip to the shops. For the first time, the team welcome us into their creative space. These dishes pack all the punch and edge we expect from Ottolenghi, but offer more flexibility to make them our own, using what we've got to hand. There's the ultimate guide to creamy dreamy hummus, a one-pan route to confit tandoori chickpeas and a tomato salad that rules them all. This book is all about feeding ourselves and our families with less stress and less fuss, but with all the 'wow' of an Ottolenghi meal. It's a notebook to scribble on and add to, to take its ethos and absolutely make it your own. This is how to cook, the OTK way.
