Jerusalem
Barbara from Amsterdam,
I love the flavours that ottolenghi conjures with, but I find the cooking instructions often sloppy and not to be trusted. Oven temperatures or timings can be way off (perhaps they are tested in a professional kitchen that yields different results), steps missing, or in the wrong sequence. Almost every recipe I've tried needs some kind of tweaking, and careful reading.
That being said, his cookbooks are often the first ones I reach for when looking for inspiration for a dinner party. And Jersulaem is probably the one I most frequently turn to.
