Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Christmas turkey stuffed with mushroom-flavoured forcemeat (Gevulde kalkoen voor de Kerstdagen / La dinde farcie de Noel); Loin of pork braised in red wine (Vlaams zwijntje in een wildsaus / Marcassin des Flandres); Roast pork with onions and mustard (Varensgebraad met zilveruitjes en mosterd / Noix de porc braisee aux oignons); Venison steaks with gin and juniper berries (Reebokkoteletten met jenever / Cotelettes de chevreuil au genievre); Rabbit marinated in abbey beer with mushrooms (Konijn me Trappistenbier en wilde paddestoelen / Lapin a la Trappiste et aux champignons sauvages)

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.
