A collection of 120 recipes exploring the flavors of Jerusalem from the New York Timesbestselling author of Plenty, one of the most lauded cookbooks of 2011. In Jerusalem,YotamOttolenghi re-teams with his friend (and the co-owner of his restaurants) Sami Tamimi. Together they explore the vibrant cuisine of their home city-with its diverse Muslim, Jewish, Arab, Christian, and Armenian communities.

This cookbook offers recipes from their unique cross-cultural perspectives including Charred Baby Okra with Tomato and Preserved Lemon, Braised Lamb Meatballs with Sour Cherries, and Clementine and Almond Cake. With five bustling restaurants in London and two stellar cookbooks, Ottolenghi is one of the most respected chefs in the world; Jerusalem is his most personal, original, and beautiful cookbook yet.
