modest, no nonsense, accessible stuff June 17, 2007

I've only had one other raw food book, an that's RAW by Juliano.. gorgeous and exciting, but most of the recipes are overwhelming. Obscure, expensive and very lengthy lists of ingredients.. and the need to have some pretty expensive equipment i.e. a dehydrator. Quality stuff though.
Anyway. This book is great, the recipes are so easy and very good. My favourite thing has to be the flourless chocolate/carob cake! More satisfying than the 'real thing', and it's good for you, swooon.
With most recipes she includes variations of ingredients.. for people who aren't vegan, or anti-refined sugar etc. The pictures are rubbish, and the book itself feels kinda cheap, but what it lacks in these areas it makes up for in the real substance of the book.
It's all so simple, and is more educational than manual-like, that is, it informs your own imagination, so you can get into the intuitive spirit of raw creativity :P that sounds a little pretentious maybe, but it's true :) Lots of fun.

This is probably one of the best books about raw food. At least the best I have ever seen, and I did go through a number of those... I am generally in favour of raw foods. The majority of my diet is raw. However some foods do requires some heating :-)... A good addition to this book is Can We Live 150 by M. Tombak. I suggest getting them both for a broad view of the full food spectrum.

I wasn't sure whether this book would be useful. The photographs are incredibly badly done, so I wasn't sure if the recipes would follow suit. However, having made my first meal (Lasagne) I can heartily recommend that recipe at least, and if the others are as good, the book will immediately become indispensable. The ingredients are easily available, even in the UK (not usually the case with American authors), and the recipes don't take all day to prepare. The lasagne asks you to marinade mushrooms for 10 minutes - even I could manage that!
