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.

    Makes the turkey super juicy. Tried this recipe 10 years ago and have never turned back. A Christmas essential!

    Was scared of brining, but carried on anyway. 4.5kg turkey, one tiny part was dry which had been sat against the side of the tin. The flavour definitely permeated and the cooking time was right. Mine needed an extra fifteen, but it was going from a cold kitchen into the oven. Will do again. Leftovers were tasty today.
