Yotam Ottolenghi's baking recipes

"You will find me using things that are not always so obviously associated with baking. The presence of hard herbs like rosemary, for example, in an orange and olive oil cake. Cookies bound together and enriched by tahini, the use of which tends to be confined, by many, to the making of hummus. Spices will bring flavour, citrus will bring freshness. I hope you'll come to share my obsession with lemons, that you'll indulge my penchant for adding a splash of booze wherever I can ... I hope you'll want to roll up your sleeves, grab some flour and dust the counter as well," writes British chef and author Yotam Ottolenghi.
