TARA WIGLEY spent a decade working in publishing--at the Abner Stein Literary Agency in London and then Simon & Schuster--before going to cookery school in Ireland. She has developed, tested, and writen recipes for Ottolenghi's weekly column in the Guardian magazine and monthly New York Times's columns, as well as for his cookbooks. She is the co-author of Ottolenghi Simple (2018), with Yotam Ottolenghi. For Falastin, Tara has travelled with Tamimi in Palestine and eaten her body weight in chickpeas and tahini.
