This is not your ordinary cookbook- this is one that will take your cooking up a notch. There is a lot to learn here, about different ways of enhancing flavor through the process of cooking, pairing flavors types, and using produce to add depth of flavor, and your meals will be better for it. While I wouldn't say beginners should avoid this book, it has so much helpful information in it, beginners should be aware this isn't a fix something quick cookbook. There are quicker recipes, but there are lots of more involved recipes as well. And the recipes, oh my! I want to eat everything! There are gorgeous photos of each dish throughout, and everything is presented so beautifully, it will surely inspire you to release your inner chef.

The recipes in here look utterly delicious and quite fancy. I think if you made any of these dishes for someone they would be very impressed. I loved how vegetables were at the forefront of a lot of the recipes and there is always so much flavor added even to dishes that are usually plain and simple. It's a really lovely cookbook that is straightforward but also so informative and innovative.

Another gorgeous cookbook by Yotam Ottolenghi! I really liked the concept of this one, looking closely at what makes vegetables distinct and how you can create new and exciting flavours for them by looking at three concepts: process (what happens when the veggies are cooked), pairing (what you pair the veggies with), and produce (the depth of flavour that certain veg naturally posses). Full of lots of beautiful photographs (a cookbook must!) Ottolenghi Flavor would be a welcome addition in any kitchen, especially if you are looking to take how you cook vegetables to the next level.

This book is gorgeous. Ottolenghi has such a knack for putting unexpected ingredients together. This will be my Christmas gift go to.

Another visually stunning and culinarily inspiring volume from Yotam Ottolenghi. With vegetables in the forefront, and no compromising on flavours, this is the perfect gift for any serious foodie in your life.
