Ottolenghi Test Kitchen: Shelf Love by Yotam Ottolenghi and Noor Murad

Join Village Books and The MCT for an evening with bestselling author Yotam Ottolength and Noor Murad to celebrate the publication of the first book in a new series Ottolenghi Test Kitchen: Shelf Love.
Yotam and Noor will be demonstrating recipes from the book while chatting to author and journalist Felicity Cloake.
The series of Ottolenghi Test Kitchen (OTK) books was born out of lockdown. The world changed, the way people cooked changed and as chefs, Yotam, Noor and the OTK team changed too. The book is a combination of all that is Ottolenghi but focuses on raiding your kitchen cupboard, fridges and freezers and using what you have to produce inventive, Ottolenghi fied meals.
Shelf Love is filled with practical solutions for ingredient swaps and recipe tweaks. It is everything we know and love about Ottolenghi but with a stripped back approach. The Ottolenghi team will teach you about how to utilise what you have in your kitchen to put a delicious meal on the table.
At the core of Shelf Love are three key elements: Flexibility: to make a recipe your own using the condiments you have, creativity: adding test kitchen twists and tricks to explore unique flavour cobinations, and relatability: food that is comforting yet still hold the familiar ‘Ottolenghi’ flavourd that people know and love.
