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.

    These digestives are easy to make and not very sweet with only 2 tablespoons of brown sugar in the dough. One could add more sugar and dip in melted chocolate for a sweeter version. They are delicious with coffee and tea. The source for this historic recipe is Theodore Garrett (ed.), The Encyclopaedia of Practical Cookery (c.1885).
