I just thought this tasted good and then a friend told me it tasted like Tuna Mayo. Then I tinkered around with it and it tastes even better. Raw sweetcorn is a delicious optional ingredient, and once you have tasted it you might start wondering why anyone cooks sweetcorn, especially at this time of year when it is relatively easy to get fresh young ears of sweetcorn. Scrape the corn off with a sharp knife onto a chopping board and stir it in. When you make delicious healthy green juice including cucumbers you have cucumber fibre left, still with plenty […] Read more »
Why raw food is not boring
Depending on what food you are used to eating, living on mainly or all raw food might look odd and rather limiting, but once you try some well-made raw veggie dishes and/or get the hang of making them yourself then things may look, or rather taste, very different. I think this is for two reasons. Number one is that there are so many fantastic raw ingredients and interesting – but usually simple – ways to prepare them that you need never settle for the same old same old. The scope of modern raw vegan food goes way beyond the traditional […] Read more »

Juicing Equipment
Sara asks about juicing equipment, and here are my first thoughts: Juicing, that is juicing green vegetables, is so important that my first suggestion is that you dig out or borrow whatever juicing equipment you can lay your hands on RIGHT NOW, and start juicing RIGHT NOW. Basically, there are three types of juicer, centrifugal, single auger and twin auger. Centrifugal are the cheapest and most common. Having said that, some of them are quite pricey, especially considering that because they spin things quite fast they can heat the juice too much, and also considering that the spinning whips rather […] Read more »
Simple Stir-Raw – An easy raw meal for one, or two, or however many
A mistake many people eating mainly or all raw vegan food make is not eating enough – what a nice problem, making sure you eat plenty! That’s partly because of the high water content in raw veggies. It is good quality water but you have to pile your plate high. That doesn’t apply to nuts and seeds etc, which are very concentrated food even when starting to sprout. And what if you are going to be home late, not sure if you have the energy to chop things and don’t have good raw foods lined up waiting for you? Try […] Read more »
