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.

    Everything turned out well with this recipe, including the crust. The filling looked like it wouldn't fit 1/2 the crust, but it expanded a bit during cooking. Honestly, it would be better be 2.5-3 lbs of plums. Also, it was a little heavier in ginger than I preferred, but if you increased the amount of plums, it would probably even out. The resulting pie was a beautiful red, and the crust was tender and shiny from the egg wash and sugar. I'd make this again if I have extra plums lying around.
