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 cilantro for kale.

    I made this as part of a vegetarian dinner party. It was fine but not great. We did not think that the tofu and cucumber combination worked very well and the dressing was interesting but we felt something was missing.

    The dressing is what made this salad -- I substituted cilantro for kale and it was divine.

    This has a particularly nice vinegar/lemon dressing with lemongrass. I had some left over so I used it over roasted beets. Very nice. Great vegetarian lunch with protein from tofu and pine nuts.
