Hibernate Criteria API where clause in many to many relation

Question

I have relation many to many with extra fileds in linking table(mapping in xml files). Using criteria api how to add restrictions to name of product?

public class Recipe implements Serializable{

    private int id_re;

    private String name;

    private Set<ProductRecipe> listOfRecipe_Product = new HashSet<>(0);
}


public class ProductRecipe implements Serializable{

    private ProductRecipeMapping id;

    private float quantity;
}

public class ProductRecipeMapping implements Serializable{

    private Product product;

    private Recipe recipe;
}

public class Product implements Serializable{

    private int id_p;

    private String name;
}

Mapping:

<class entity-name="recipe" name="Recipe" table="recipe">
        <id name="id_re" type="java.lang.Integer">
            <column name="id_re" />
            <generator class="identity" />
        </id>
        <set name="listOfRecipe_Product" table="recipe_product" lazy="false" fetch="select" cascade="all">
            <key>
                <column name="id_re" not-null="true" />
            </key>

            <one-to-many entity-name="productRecipe" />
        </set>
</class>

<class entity-name="productRecipe" name="ProductRecipe" table="recipe_product">
        <composite-id name="id" class="ProductRecipeMapping" >
            <key-many-to-one name="recipe" entity-name="recipe" column="id_re" />
            <key-many-to-one name="product" entity-name="product" column="id_p" />
        </composite-id>

        <property name="quantity" type="float" column="quantity" />

</class>    

<class entity-name="product" name="Product" table="product">

        <id name="id_p" type="java.lang.Integer" column="id_p">
            <generator class="identity" />
        </id>

        <property name="name" column="name" type="java.lang.String" not-null="true" length="255"/>

</class>

EG I use criteria for get recipe with name test:

Criteria cr = session.createCriteria(Recipe.class);
cr.add(Restrictions.eq("name", "test")); 

but I don't know to get all recipes with list name of products something like cr.add(Restrictions.eq("product.name", "test")); (but not work)

I use 2 idea to resolve this problem but nothing work:

1) Restrictions.eq("listOfRecipe_Product.id.product.name", "test") but i get error org.hibernate.QueryException: could not resolve property: listOfRecipe_Product.id.product.name of: recipe

2)

cr.createCriteria("listOfRecipe_Product")
    .createCriteria("id")
    .createCriteria("product")
    .add(Restrictions.eq("name", "test"));

I get error org.hibernate.QueryException: Criteria objects cannot be created directly on components. Create a criteria on owning entity and use a dotted property to access component property: listOfRecipe_Product.id org.hibernate.QueryException: Criteria objects cannot be created directly on components. Create a criteria on owning entity and use a dotted property to access component property: listOfRecipe_Product.id

You will need to create aliases in order to add constraints to mapped entities;

eg:

Criteria cr = session.createCriteria(Recipe.class)
  .createAlias("listOfRecipe_Product", "listOfRecipe_Product")
  .createAlias("listOfRecipe_Product.id", "id")
  .createAlias("id.product", "product")
  .add(Restrictions.eq("product.name", "test"));
