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.

    Delicious! I specially ordered the garlic chives and they were expensive $$$ Was so happy then when the resulting dumplings made it worth the effort and expense. I’m not sure I made the wrappers well. They held together but were a touch gummy. Need a reference point because I’m not sure if the texture should be more tender? Either way, happy with how they turned out!
