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.

    This was one incredibly tall and beautiful babka, and it was delicious too. The bread was very light and airy (and still moist on day 2) and the filling was complex - mocha with a bit of fruity tang and spice. The streusel topping looked great and added another texture but not much flavour. The dough was very loose and sticky so I kneaded it in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment for about 12 minutes. I don't know the purpose of twisting the "jelly roll" of filled dough...to increase surface tension? to change the swirl pattern? (It didn't but maybe I just did it wrong...)
