About this ebook

Raw Food Cookbook As we learn more about nutrition and health, more of the benefits of raw foods are coming to light. It's well known that diet and health are inextricably linked - and that many common diseases can be prevented by adopting a healthier diet. Raw foods provide us with the maximum nutritional content from our diet; cooking destroys a significant portion of the vitamins, minerals and enzymes found in raw foods. Because of the many health benefits associated with raw foods, people are more interested than ever in raw food recipes and raw food cookbooks, whether they're raw food diet recipes for a short term weight loss program or detoxification, raw food recipes for beginners interested in adopting a raw food diet or recipes for those who are more experienced in eating raw foods and are looking to expand their culinary repertoire. This is a raw foods cookbook made for beginners and dedicated raw food enthusiasts alike. This raw food diet book covers the basics while still providing plenty of more advanced recipes; so when readers are ready to move on to more sophisticated raw food preparation techniques, there's no need to get a separate raw food book. Here, you'll find recipes for dinner and lunch entrees, breakfast and brunch recipes, recipes for raw food appetizers, sauces and snacks, all designed not only for good health, but to taste good as well. It's a raw foods book for everyone, in short - and it's packed with delicious, healthy raw food recipes along with detailed directions that make even the more complex dishes easy to prepare.

    Conclusion

    Introduction

    The raw food diet is rapidly gaining in popularity, both as a short term cleanse and as a lifestyle. In any major city (and quite a few mid-sized cities as well), there are several raw food restaurants to choose from, exposing ever more people to the benefits of raw foods as well as educating the public that a raw food diet doesn’t have to mean being consigned to glumly munching on salad after salad.

    As you’ll learn in this cookbook, you can enjoy a widely varied raw food diet, although it does take some creativity and a willingness to do a little bit of work. You will have to do a lot of your own cooking, but raw food adherents are more than convinced that the extra time spent in the kitchen more than pays for itself in the form of better health.

    One of the scientific concepts underpinning the idea of eating raw is that the process of cooking most foods destroys much of their nutritional content. Even heating most foods to relatively low temperatures of around 120 degrees Fahrenheit is enough to cause the enzymes that they contain to break down – and for that reason, many people choose to reap the maximum nutritional content of the food that they eat by choosing not to cook it. While you will see many recipes in this book which call for warming or wilting various ingredients or entire dishes, this is done at very low temperatures of 100 – 115 degrees Fahrenheit in order to prevent the ingredients from losing their nutritive value.

    You’ll probably notice that many of the recipes here can be made using a dehydrator; if you’re serious about eating a raw food diet for the long term, this is a kitchen appliance which you may want to invest in. In every recipe which calls for a dehydrator, however, we’ve also given alternate directions for how to prepare the ingredients or dishes in a conventional oven instead. However, you may want to get a dehydrator in any case, since it’s not terribly energy efficient to run your oven for many hours (sometimes as long as 8 to 12 hours).
