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.

Notes about this recipe

    Made with sole filets b/c we have stopped eating most meat. Still good if you have fresh tarragon & cream.

    This was a fairly easy and pretty dish for a weeknight dinner. I would have liked more sauce, next time I would add more cream and maybe some stock too.

    I think I have tried enough recipes with vermouth now to decide I just do not like to cook with it. Too sweet, not enough acidity, and those nice bitter and herbal notes get lost when you cook with it. Apart from that, this was an OK version of this recipe, but not one I'll repeat with so many versions around.

    Pretty tasty and very easy to make. I put leek instead of scallions, and I didn't have vermouth so I used white wine.

    This was ok, but a bit bland.
