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.

    Nice side to any of the Persian grilled meats.

    What a great summer salad, I love the tart sweetness of the pomegranate molasses. I also worried it would be too sweet but it’s not. If I was serving it with something other than a kebab I’d probably add some olive oil.

    This one is a winner. Easy to toss together and a lovely combination of sweet and salty. Once the tomatoes give off a touch of liquid you end up with a lightly clinging vinaigrette (sans the oil) which was great. Added a few grinds of pepper as well.

    This is delicious! Our guests, who are usually meat-and-potatoes kinds, ate it all with great alacrity. I was afraid the pom. molasses might be too sweet, but it worked perfectly.
