Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This is a great way to use up a lot of veggies hanging around in the fridge, especially during late summer. I've only made the variation with summer squash (rather than winter). Delicious, and healthy--though I make it slightly less so by adding pancetta at the beginning of the saute, to add some extra depth of flavor.
