What You Will Learn
Many of you have told us how much you love gathering around books and food together.
So, we’re introducing something new. Join us for The Shared Table: A Cookbook Club collective right here at NTTC.
Every other month we’ll choose a cookbook, cook from its pages, and come together at one long table to share, taste, and discuss.
This month our cookbook is Ottolenghi Simple by Yotam Ottolenghi, Tara Wigely, and Esme Howarth.
About the Book
Ottolenghi Simple is a vibrant, approachable cookbook from Yotam Ottolenghi that brings his signature bold flavors into weeknight-friendly cooking. Designed for cooks who love exciting food but don’t always have hours to spend in the kitchen, Simple focuses on recipes that are streamlined without sacrificing the layered, vegetable-forward style Ottolenghi is known for.
Across its pages, you’ll find bright, Mediterranean-leaning dishes built around smart shortcuts—think pantry-friendly ingredients, minimal prep, and flexible techniques that make cooking feel intuitive rather than intimidating. From comforting one-pan meals to fresh salads, hearty grains, and show-stopping vegetables, every recipe is crafted to deliver maximum flavor with minimal fuss.
