Vanilla bean and sumac cookies from Cookies: The New Classics (page 184) by Jesse Szewczyk

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 vanilla paste or vanilla extract for vanilla beans.

    First recipe I made out of this book. Delicious but needs more sumac flavor. Will be making these again and adding more sumac.

    Same issue with the sumac — it was hard to taste, and the color didn't bleed in the way it does so beautifully in the photo in the book. Next time we'll try using more.

    The sumac didn't seem to come through strongly, though they made the cookies look more pleasing. I might try to adjust the amount next time.
