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 is a beautiful cookbook. Brasata al Barolo is the first recipe I cooked from it. I will use this recipe as a jumping off point to refine this dish (to the tastes of my household). The star anise, cloves and cinnamon gave this dish too much of a 5-spice asian influence for me. After cooking this recipe (as written) I did some online sleuthing and found that one of these elements is sometimes included but not all of them. Next I will try Lydia’s recipe that I found online. Her’s features almost the same ingredients but includes garlic (this recipe does not) and cloves only. Her version also braises in the oven. I think I will try that method. This isn’t a complaint but an observation. This recipe inspired me enough to work to perfect this and make it my own.
