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.

    Exceptionally delicious. More than the sum of the its parts, like so many Marcella Hazan recipes. Agree with the other comment about needing more broth; I used a little over 4 cups.

    You need about 2 hours end to end, but this cooks away at the back of the stove top so a low maintenance soup if you are kicking around the house. For us it was too close to risotto consistency with the proposed 3 cups of stock. I would go with 4 or even 5 cups or liquid. Quite nice though.

    Very rich but delicious. Best fresh.
