Transform Everyday Cooking into Something Extraordinary
There's a moment every home cook knows, when a dish needs something, that elusive depth that turns dinner into 'delicious'. This is where Ottolenghi's Pilpelchuma changes the game.
Born from Libya's vibrant culinary traditions and perfected by Yotam Ottolenghi's legendary test kitchen, this isn't just another chilli paste gathering dust in your pantry. It's your secret weapon for the kind of bold, layered flavour that makes guests ask, "What is that?"
Why Pilpelchuma Belongs in Your Kitchen
Imagine roasted peppers meeting garlic and cumin in a slow, smoky dance, finished with just enough chilli to wake up your palate without overwhelming it. One spoonful transforms roasted vegetables from simple to sublime. Stir it through a winter stew and watch it develop complexity that tastes like you've been cooking all day. Slather it on lamb before grilling and prepare for the kind of caramelised crust that defines great cooking.
This is flavour that does the heavy lifting for you - the kind of ingredient that makes midweek cooking feel effortless and weekend entertaining look masterful.
How to Use It
- Marinate: Coat chicken thighs, lamb cutlets, fish fillets or halloumi before grilling for instant depth
- Enrich: Stir through tomato-based stews, shakshuka, or braised dishes in the final minutes
- Roast: Toss with kumara, cauliflower, or carrots before roasting for caramelised perfection
- Finish: Swirl into yoghurt for a quick dip, or drizzle over store-bought hummus
The Ottolenghi Difference
Yotam Ottolenghi built his reputation on making bold Middle Eastern and Mediterranean flavours accessible to home cooks. Every product from his range reflects the same meticulous testing and flavour-first philosophy that made his restaurants and cookbooks legendary. This Pilpelchuma carries that heritage: authentic technique, premium ingredients, and the confidence that comes from a kitchen that's never compromised.
