UK | Ottolenghi has introduced a new range of dressings and fresh deli staples to its popular pantry range in Waitrose, bringing the flavour and generosity of its deli counters into more home kitchens.
The Ottolenghi Pantry has always been about having the right things to hand. Ingredients that do a lot, with very little. Things you reach for without thinking, because they make everything taste better.
From the 27th of April, five new additions joined the range: two dressings and three fresh deli staples, each rooted in the same bold, layered flavours found across Ottolenghi delis and restaurants.
Two new dressings bring the same energy to everyday cooking. The Orange Marmalade Dressing leads with orange marmalade and fresh orange zest, and Aleppo chilli for gentle heat and brightness. The Honey Mustard Dressing is Ottolenghi’s take on a classic, with preserved lemon lifting the flavour in an unmistakable Ottolenghi way.
Designed to dress, drizzle and stir through, both are inspired directly by the dressings made daily across Ottolenghi kitchens, intended to bring life to simple salads, grains or roasted vegetables.
Then the focus shifts to the fridge as Ottolenghi has also launched a selection of fresh deli staples for the first time: Pickled Carrot & Kohlrabi Slaw, Pomegranate Harissa Olives, and Hibiscus Pickled Onions.
“The food we make in our delis has always been about abundance - lots of things on the table, big flavours, something for everyone. We wanted to make that possible at home too," said Yotam Ottolenghi.
“Our dressings and deli range come directly from how we cook in our own kitchens - the things we reach for when we want to bring a salad or a bowl of grains to life. Something sharp, something sweet, something with a bit of heat or depth. Things that make everyday cooking feel a little more special.”
Laura Tudor, Branded Innovation Manager at Waitrose, added that there’s a unique joy in Ottolenghi’s cooking, and Waitrose was delighted to bring that experience to stores with his exclusive new deli range.
"From the citrusy brightness of the Orange Marmalade Dressing to the rich, complex heat of the Pomegranate Harissa Olives, these products are a celebration of high-quality ingredients and adventurous flavours. We are delighted to be the home of this collection, making it easier than ever for our food lovers to enjoy a taste of the Ottolenghi kitchen every day.”
