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

  • Eat Your Books

    Lemons or Meyer lemons can be used instead of limes.

    I loooove these. I made them with regular lemons and I thought they were lovely and tangy. I never used to think I liked lemon bars until I had these, because I don't like citrus without the tartness. The crust is better the next day but the powdered sugar does soak in, so the solution is probably to let them sit overnight and then add sugar just before serving.

    I had Meyer lemons, so I followed the instructions for using them. The bars turned out extremely mild; they were barely tart at all. Great texture, but no tang.
