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.

    Excellent soup with minimal ingredients. Once you can make this simple soup, all other variations on Canh, or many other soups, just come down to gilding the lily. A good place to start if you are new to or nervous about Vietnamese soups.

    Super simple, shocking amount of flavor for such few ingredients.
