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.

    p. 408 -- Used the "Medium-Flake Method" to make crust for Basic Vegetable Quiche from same book, halving ingredients to make only a single crust and using only butter as the fat. Good basic crust, easy to roll and did not shrink in pan.
