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.

    I've made this salad twice, once as written and once with LN's snap pea variation instead of spinach. It is easy and versatile but consider adding some lime juice for a hit of acid. Also, it definitely tastes better spicier (though I've been leaving out most of the peppers on account of the kids).

    We had spinach in our CSA, but a rather small amount, and you know how spinach cooks down. So my proportions were not what was called for. I used cherry tomatoes, in a variety of colors. We were out of peanuts, so I chopped up some Marcona almonds. I made this dish after work and, I used it to accompany a chicken dish. I hadn't done any advance prep, so I made the fried shallots with the shallot oil, and the shrimp powder, just before I made the salad. Surprisingly workable. This is one more aromatic and tasty dish from the book. I do think the peanuts would have been better than the last minute almond switchout, but even so, another success.
