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.

    Simple and phenomenally good. I'll make this regularly. I see that Sichaun cookery has a version with green beans.

    Like others, we enjoyed this quick and easy side dish. The black vinegar added a nice note. Served with a richer Baked Pork Bun and Steamed Squash with Spicy Black Bean Sauce, this went well and was a good addition to the meal.

    Nice cold veggie dish, with simple easy to mix dressing. We had this with rice and a braised meat dish, the slightly sour, salty, gingery taste is perfect to cut down on the richness of that meat dish.

    Pg. 64 Very strong flavours from the dressing, but the cold cooked spinach stands up to it well. Nothing to change here, nice little dish to serve as a cold side which keeps well and can be made in advance.
