London’s NOPI (North of Picadilly) in Soho, the most formal of the Ottolenghi family of eateries, is the inspiration for this cookbook from the acclaimed chef/author. More than 100 chic plates for ambitious cooks expand Ottolenghi’s trademark fare. With head chef Ramael Scully, Ottolenghi (Jerusalem) presents NOPI’s signature dishes, collaborations between two world cuisines: Scully’s Malaysian-Australian roots combine with Ottolenghi’s Israeli-inspired palate to create bold, vibrant fare with Mediterranean/Asian twists. Garlicky lamb, marinated with rosemary and then grilled, combines with coconut milk and peanuts. There are beef brisket croquettes served with lime, snap peas, and Asian coleslaw. Seared quail in an oven-charred miso butterscotch paste is dressed with pomegranate walnut salsa. Recipes include starters, salads, sides; fish, meat, vegetables; brunches; and desserts. Cocktails, condiments, meal suggestions, and a key ingredient list from the NOPI pantry are also featured. Many detailed dishes involve multiple levels of preparation, with some marinades and garnishes requiring smoking or pickling. Ottolenghi offers tips to ease preparation, such as mise en place, proper recipe reading, equipment suggestions, and so-called alternative routes. Nevertheless, he sometimes faces difficulty translating labor-intensive restaurant dishes into something accessible for home cooks, and some of the more cumbersome recipes just may exceed their grasp.

"This is simply wonderful cooking...modern, smart, and thoughtful. I love it." Nigel Slater
"With his 2012 cookbook Jerusalem, London restaurateur Yotam Ottolenghi [has] created a sensation by sharing his unexpected and highly personal take on Mediterranean cooking." Food & Wine
"Jerusalem is the top-selling cookbook in the country, subverting the conventional wisdom that you need to have a TV show to have a bestselling cookbook. The book...has become something of a phenomenon." Publisher's Weekly
"Forget about the fact that it's a vegetarian's best friend. Plenty is the sort of cookbook that a home cook will fall for. It's as meaty as its meat-filled counterparts." Charlotte Druckman food52.com
"Plenty...is among the most generous and luxurious nonmeat cookbooks ever produced, one that instantly reminds us that you don't need meat to produce over-the-top food." Mark Bittman, New York Times
"Yotam Ottolenghi's second cookbook has recipes for dishes largely absent from the American kitchena fact that almost never crosses your mind when you flip through it hungry. Everything sounds mouthwatering and looksand isdoable." Wall Street Journal
Working with chef Scully and food writer Wigley, celebrity chef Ottolenghi (Plenty More) has adapted recipes from his acclaimed Central London restaurant Nopi for domestic kitchens. These recipes will test home cooks, but they're not impossible, thanks to the authors' rigorous testing and development process. On days when bourbon-glazed spare ribs with smoked corn salad sounds too laborious, readers can turn to easier and equally tempting dishes such as burrata with blood orange, coriander seeds, and lavender oil, and three-citrus salad with green chile, stem ginger, and crunchy salsa. Preparing starters, mains, brunches, cocktails, condiments, and desserts, cooks will become acquainted with a wide variety of seasonings from around the world, from Asian lemongrass and pandan leaves to Middle Eastern rosewater and pomegranate molasses. VERDICT Although Ottolenghi's latest will challenge readers in ways its predecessors did not, it reliably delivers unique recipes with flavor combinations unmatched in their inventiveness.
