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.

    I made this for Chinese new years. Very good, very similar to my mom's. Quite labor intensive, as you have to soak and clean quite a few items and then you are supposed to tie every single one of the dried lily buds in a knot (my mom never did that and I won't again). I increased the napa by 50%, but felt that you could still use a lot more, I like to have a lot of that in my buddah's delight. I would decrease the cellophane noodle by half as I think there was too much of that. Also, the sea moss I got was not good, they disintegrated upon cooking. As usual, my husband would not touch it as it is chock full of fungi which he claims to be allergic to.
