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.

    Can substitute unsalted butter for oil.

    Using whole wheat pastry flour (note pastry not bread or all-purpose) and butter makes these cookies more authentic and absolutely lovely for an occasion where you want a delicate cookie. It's also worth sprinkling a small amount of crushed or ground rose petals over the top just before baking.
