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 seems like it might be a little boring but I made it for an event and everyone loved it! So much more interesting and delicious than I thought a raw broccoli salad would be.

    I thought the dressing was good. Make sure you use young broccoli and slice it thin.

    This was really good, but it does make an assertive dressing. I liked it but husband found it too strong, so maybe next time I'll make it less pungent by adding a little more oil.
