Interesting that. The fact is - whisper it - recipes, especially recipes from chefs (except, of course, yours) don't always work. I almost always fiddle about with them usually, as you did, when I haven't got the right ingredient or disagree with the amount they advise you to include

Yes, agree! But i think in this case it was both the writer and the tester cocking it up. It's quite hard to stick to recipes to the letter, partly because, like you, I like to fiddle with them, but also the availability of ingredients can be tricky.

It was really very good. The skin was a bit tough but the pulp was superb. And she makes a lovely miso of any variety.

I love this one. Sounds like a proper faff so well done for finding a proxy chef
