Jerusalem
By Yotam Ottolenghi, Sami Tamimi
Ebury Press - 2012
So far, I have tested four recipes from this book. I noticed that all of these dishes were very delicious, none of them had that particular Ottolenghi genius. It's logical if you think about it - this is not a book about his own dishes, this is a book about the cuisine of Jerusalem. And it's very good at that, the dishes were lovely and the recipes were extremely reliable. It's just to say that you shouldn't approach 'Jerusalem' with wrong expectations, you'd be disappointed by a book that definitely does not deserve that. I'm very happy I have it.
