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.

    Directions to bake at 300 degrees for 15 min seem off and did not work for me. A google search produced similar recipes by Alice Medrich, Ottolenghi, and a blogger that have similar buckwheat walnut cookies bake at 325 or 350 and for longer (15-20 min). My cookies were difficult to bake at the low temp and many crumbled when gently rolling cooled cookies in powdered sugar as per recipe. I added five dashes chocolate bitters (removing equivalent vanilla amount) for one teaspoon combined bitters/vanilla. Level of salt and overall flavor wonderful.
