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.

    I used farro in place of spelt and zucchini instead of cucumber. Very easy and delicious.

    Pg 137 - I used Kamut instead of the spelt berries and cooked them in the pressure cooker (25 mins unsoaked with natural pressure release). I also added some cannellini beans to the salad to make it a bit more substantial. Make sure you don't cut the cucumber too thin though as it will turn to mush in not eaten straight away. Nice textures in the salad with the chewy grains, soft cheese, silky cucumber and the pop of flavour you get from the nigella seeds (Kalonji).
