npm command not found

Issue Description

It did not work in my environment, but with some modifications to the recipe, it now works. At least it works now, but probably not a fundamental fix. Does anyone know the correct way to handle this ?
Since it is a certificate-related error, it might be related to Issue #12 and #66, but I couldn't figure it out.
