Yotam Ottolenghi with Samin Nosrat

Yotam Ottolenghi is a celebrated chef and bestselling cookbook author. He is the restauranteur and chef-patron of six London-based Ottolenghi delis, as well as the NOPI and ROVI restaurants. He is the author of ten bestselling and multi-award-winning cookbooks, including his latest, "Comfort". Ottolenghi has been a weekly columnist for the Guardian (UK) for over sixteen years and is a regular contributor to The New York Times. His commitment to the championing of vegetables, as well as ingredients once seen as ‘exotic’, has led to what some call ‘The Ottolenghi effect’. This is shorthand for the creation of a meal which is full of color, flavor, bounty, and surprise.  On October 10, 2024, Yotam Ottolenghi came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco for an onstage conversation with fellow writer and cook Samin Nosrat, author of the James Beard Award-winning cookbook Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat and the host and executive producer of the Netflix original documentary series based on her book.
