David, is the last dessert in your review not the PBJ? I had both that and the beetroot with basil ash meringue and I think your pic is of the PBJ! Which was awesome.

I love both Ottolenghi's cookbooks. Everything I've made has worked well and been delicious. They're not always easy weeknight meals (lots of ingredients and sometimes a little time consuming) but they're worth the effort. If I could only have ten cookbooks, I think two of them would be by Ottolenghi.

I also use it with lamb. I mix some with honey and oil and use as a marinade. Then cook the lamb with tomatoes and dried apricots. Yum!

My mum has coeliac (celiac for US readers) and she gets incredibly frustrated with all the "healthy gluten free" marketing. One good thing to come out of it is that the fashionableness of gluten free has made it a lot easier for her to get hold of products in the supermarket. But having tasted some of them when I go to her house, I cannot see why anyone would eat them voluntarily!

Nice write up! I was working on the Action Against Hunger stand on Friday/Saturday (with Valentine Warner and Paul Merrett). We were working so hard in a tiny tent kitchen that we didn't get to see any of the other food! Theo Randall's team sent us some spicy scallops which were pretty tasty though. Will have to make sure I get at least one day as a visitor next year.
