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.

    Remarkable flavor and easy to assemble from beginning to end.

    This was delicious, really tasty sauce and I enjoyed the texture of the butternut squash when steamed. I cooked it in the pressure cooker so it took less than 10 minutes to cook.

    This dish was really delicious: lots of complex flavor, but quite easy to prepare. I followed the recipe exactly, except for needing to steam the squash for more time than called for in the recipe. I probably added at least 10 minutes. That could be on me (not cutting squash quite thin enough or not using a shallow/wide enough bowl), but something to note.
