If you missed it, here’s Marco giving Yotam his first experience of Tassie cherries – these were delicious, gigantic cherries from Hansen Orchards. As you will see from the video, Yotam was quite overcome and declared them the best cherries ever!

Yotam left behind a stack of his fantastic cookbooks, including Comfort, $65, Flavour, $35.75, Simple, $50, Test Kitchen, $50 and The Cookbook, $55. We also have some great Ottolenghi merchandise including plates, tea towels and bags, starting at $24.95. Visit our Hill Street Home stores at West Hobart, Devonport and Sandy Bay stores to see the range.

We have also replenished the full range of Yotam’s Ingredients Range. These products make your Middle Eastern cooking taste and smell so authentic it feels like cheating… and we love them! They take your dishes straight to the Middle East and the Mediterranean without having to go to the trouble of sourcing all the individual spices yourself or making sauces or pastes from scratch. With products like Chilli Sauce, Citrus and Spice Mix, Green Harissa, Miso Pesto, Shawarma Marinade, Sweet and Smokey Spice Mix, Ottolenghi Aleppo and Other Chillies, and Kalamata Harissa Sauce, you will soon be turning out delicious and authentic Ottolenghi recipes, and enhancing your own, with these versatile and easy-to-use flavour-partners. In most cases only a teaspoon or tablespoon is needed to flavour a whole dish so they will last a long time in your fridge or pantry. Prices start from $11.95 per jar.

Ottolenghi’s Ingredients Range is stocked in most Hill Street stores. Check with your local store to confirm availability of individual products. Cookbooks and homewares are at Hill Street Home stores at West Hobart, Devonport and Sandy Bay.
