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.

    What a delicious fall recipe. Had too many figs from the market so was looking for something to whip up quickly for coffee and this one absolutely fit the bill. Figs were macerated in some red wine while the dough was chilling (leftover juices were a delicious treat for the baker). I added some ground almonds on top of the rolled-out dough before topping it with the macerated figs to soak up any leftover juices, worked beautifully.
