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.

    Made with soba. Agree with others that it needs more dressing!!! Otherwise super easy weeknight meal that doesn’t require a stove or oven (thinking about humid NY summers).

    This was a very tasty salad and I will make it again. The dressing was great, but it was a tiny bit fish sauce forward for my taste, so the next time I make it, I will temper it with a bit more honey. I used Pho Rice noodles, but I think Udon or Soba noodles might be even better.

    This was a very tasty salad. I agree, make more of the dressing. I made a half recipe of the salad but a full amount of the dressing, and we used it all.

    I thought this was extrenely under-sauced. I would at least triple the amount of sauce if I make it again.
