Considered the “kitchen bible” by healthy foodies around the world, this is an accessible how-to guide and cookbook for anyone interested in a raw food diet
No longer on the outermost fringe of the food world, the raw food diet is becoming increasingly mainstream as its health benefits have become clearer and celebrities such as Demi Moore become enthusiastic converts. Eager to show that a diet that includes a high percentage of raw foods is not difficult to achieve, chefs Peter and Beryn Daniel created this beautiful, accessible cookbook and guide to raw kitchen basics. Rawlicious introduces readers to a lifestyle that marries long-term health benefits and higher energy levels with delicious and simple raw recipes.
Rawlicious covers a broad spectrum of recipes and raw principles, from basics like stocking your raw kitchen, juicing, salad preparation, and making smoothies, to more advanced, gourmet dishes. Stunning full-color photos throughout will inspire readers to get into their kitchen, and clear, easy instructions to 144 recipes will encourage them to stay. Clean design and clear explanations of raw food principles and recipes make this one of the most inviting raw recipe books on the market. The new edition offers both U.S. and metric measurements for an international audience.
This is a beautiful text with glossy pages and colorful pictures. This book not only makes me want to eat raw foods, it makes me want to garden.
This text covers a lot of the usual raw foodist topics: the magical elixir nature of raw foods, tools of the raw kitchen, 100 things to do with a Vitamix blender, and various salads and dehydrated pancake-like things. That's a bit glib, but it is a really good book. They cover all the basics: making nut milks, making raw vegan nut 'cheese,' noodles, desserts, etc. It's really an excellent book for getting started in raw (un)cookery.
Even if you decide you don't want to eat anything in here (which is a mistake; it's really quite good stuff), you'll want to look at the pictures from time to time because it is, as I said before, a beautiful book.
Clear, concise and humorous. Some lovely recipes in there and great advice on the right equipment to buy. Motivated me to just keep going on this lovely real food thing.
