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.

    Can substitute milk for heavy cream.

    Very tasty! I could have increased the amount of filling on the buns, and it would be easy to switch up the tuna mix with other mix ins. Since the bun is the milk bread, it is more on the sweeter side, so modifications will need to consider the flavor profile.

    Tastes great with or without mozzarella. Tuna topping amount is appropriate for this size of buns but the buns can hold up to 25% more. I sometimes do that if I can't find the right sized tuna cans and need to size up. I don't reduce the proportion of mayonnaise to less than 80% indicated, so that the topping doesn't dry out while baking.
