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.

    It was indeed perfect. I froze it for a week after making. Defrosted fine and tasted wonderful. Making again for freezer to have on hand for Thanksgiving.

    This cake was indeed perfect. It took about 65 mins to cook and rose beautifully, even at my high altitude location. Used as part of the “Raspberry orange trifle” from “Barefoot Contessa: Family Style”. I’ll definitely make this again.

    I made half the recipe in one loaf pan. It took 60 minutes to bake. It rose beautifully while baking, but sank and cracked a bit while cooling. The flavor and texture were fantastic. Very soft, fine crumb. Pronounced orange-vanilla flavor. Excellent. Freezes well.
