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.

    My first time having persimmons, they are yummy! The texture of the slices on top of the cake is a bit like cooked apples. Love the almond flavor of the cake.

    Good tasting cake. Though I suspect that I might like the base recipe (with plums) more. Overall I like the almond flavour but I'm not really sure the powdered ginger comes through. If I make it again I'd add a bit more. Also I'd consider peeling the persimmons because the skin does get a bit tough while the cake bakes. It's not unpleasant but it's just a very different texture from the rest of the cake and can make eating it a bit awkward.
