Introduction
THESE five recipes are all very dear to me They represent an early part of my
career as a raw chef and all have stories attached to them Of course as Irsquove
learnt new things Irsquove updated and improved them so theyrsquore even more satisfying
then when I first served them
The tomato and mozzarella linguine was first served as a starter at a raw food dinner
party I hosted in conjunction with The Fresh Network in Soho London We hired a
little vegan restaurant called Vita-Organic and sold out the 35 seats very quickly ndash
seems people were ready to eat raw food in a restaurant setting in London It went
down a storm and I even had one person come up to me a couple of months ago
saying how she remembered that dish as ldquothe best raw food dish I had ever tastedrdquo
Praise indeed considering it was one of those recipes that just came together at the
right time on the night And the best thing is you donrsquot need a dehydrator to make it
That night we also served lasagne for which yoursquoll find the recipe in this eBook Irsquove
added an extra layer to the original recipe giving it a meaty walnut layer but you can
leave that out if you think itrsquos going to be too lsquonut-heavyrsquo for you This is such a great
recipe to make for friends raw or not and will last for a few days in the fridge Itrsquos
also great for making in a big lasagne dish and taking to pot-lucks if thatrsquos your
thing
Irsquom particularly happy with the buckwheat bread as itrsquos helped so many people stay
raw and I believe provides a real alternative to bread that will enable you to feel like
yoursquore really eating a proper sandwich Itrsquos also great for getting a couple of slices
and raiding the fridge for leftovers to make a sandwich Scooby Doo would be proud
of Some of my favourite meals have come from throwing together leftovers to create
something that would have otherwise not been created

The wilted kale and chipotle salad is a bit of a classic This is a spicy and slightly
sweet dish thatrsquoll allow you to actually enjoy eating lots of dark greens Just as a little
tip try substituting one avocado for a few tablespoons of tahinihellipdelicious
Finally we have the chocolate torte What can I say about this little dessert that hasnrsquot
already been said The recipe has changed very little since serving it at the very first
Fresh Network raw dinner party in Cambridgeshire all those years ago and it still
continues to keep people up into the night if eaten too late so beware
Enjoy these recipes whatever stage yoursquore at with raw foods Therersquos something for
everyone here so get stuck in donrsquot be afraid to experiment and I hope to be able to
meet you personally one day

What is raw food
WHEN I first heard about people that ate only raw food I couldnrsquot get my head
round it It seemed really extreme like some fad diet or some totally
unnecessary extension of the idea that fruits and vegetables are good for us
Then through various means I started to hear about raw foods more and more and
realised there was a whole lifestyle based around it that isnrsquot so extreme at all
Contrary to what I thought it didnrsquot mean I had to stop washing join any kind of cult
grow my hair long or become a lsquohippyrsquo
It also didnrsquot mean I even had to give up all my cooked food and eat completely raw
I realised I could just start bringing more and more raw foods into my diet as I felt
comfortable I mean everyone knows that fruits and vegetables in their natural state
are good for you so any extra I could get in would be a bonus
What actually happened though was that as soon as I started experiencing the
benefits tied with the fact that I had started meeting some really wonderful people
in the raw food world I really felt as if I wanted to go lsquoall rawrsquo
Yoursquoll sometimes hear raw food called the lsquoraw food dietrsquo but as Irsquove alluded to here
itrsquos not so much of a diet in the traditional sense as it is a lifestyle Sure lots of people
are able to lose weight but itrsquos quite unique in that many people come to it for allsorts of reasons including a variety of health concerns because they want extra
energy or they are simply curious about what effects they will experience by eating
food the way nature intended
Does this mean you have to eat EVERYTHING raw from now on Absolutely not My
philosophy is to add raw foods to what you are already doing and find the level thatrsquos
right for you

So back to the original question what is raw food
The easiest way to describe it is to say that raw foods are free from animal products
and havenrsquot been heated over the critical temperature that itrsquos thought most of the
enzymes are lost (around 118 degrees F) When we heat food even higher we then
start to lose other nutrients such as the vitamins minerals and other proteins
What are enzymes
Enzymes are made up of various proteins and are part of every one of your body
functions including sight hearing and most importantly in this case digestion
Simply put without enzymes we donrsquot function
We have enzymes that our own body produces and we also get enzymes from the food
we eat And this is the critical point if you eat food with the enzymes still intact then
your body doesnrsquot have to overwork to use the enzymes it produces to digest that food
There are many different types of enzymes so nature has done a wonderful job by
placing within each type of food exactly the type of enzymes that are needed to digest
that particular food
Irsquom not a nutritionist so what Irsquove learnt is through my own research therersquos so much
more information out there about why raw food is nutritionally superior and suited to
our bodies and will give you much more information and insight than I can in this
short space ndash I urge you to go out and read plenty of it
So raw doesnrsquot necessarily mean that the food hasnrsquot been heat treated ndash it just hasnrsquot
been cooked in the traditional way By using processes such as dehydrating juicing
sprouting blending and food processing itrsquos possible to eat an exciting and varied raw
food diet you may even attract some positive interest from your friends and family
If yoursquore looking for a great introduction to raw food I really recommend you check
out The Raw Food Coachrsquos lsquoHow To Get Started With Raw Foodsrsquo It will definitely get
you off to a flying start if yoursquore new to all this but will also teach you a thing or two
even if yoursquove been around a while Click here to check it out
Itrsquos part of my mission to bring recipes and food to the world that helps present rawfood in a way that seems exciting mouth-watering and accessible Itrsquos all really about
moving towards what you want not away from what you donrsquot want

By far the biggest category of question I get is asking about raw food equipment
Questions such as whats the best dehydrator or do I need a Vita-Mix
So Ive put together this list of my top 7 pieces of equipment to get started on raw
food You can then pick and choose based on your resources
1 A Sharp Knife amp Good Chopping Board
I dont know if youve noticed but youre going to be doing a little
more chopping of fruits and vegetables than perhaps youre
used to -) By far the most important equipment you can get is
a SHARP knife and a good chopping board
If you try and start off this lifestyle with a blunt knife you will be miserable lol I say
that with my tongue in my cheek but theres definitely a serious point to be be made
here ndash chopping with a dull (blunt) knife is going to take you so much longer to do
anything and theres actually more of a chance youll cut yourself because of having
to push too hard
Once you get yourself a nice new sharp knife from a manufacturer such as Mac
Henckels or Wusthoff youll wonder how you ever managed with your old blunt knife
thats been clattering around in the drawer for years
I really love using wooden chopping boards particularly bamboo
2 A Mandoline
Im not talking about the musical instrument here Im talking about the
piece of equipment that slices things paper thin giving amazing results
as far as presentation is concerned It will allow you to turn things such
as beets (beetroot) into thin slices for beautiful ravioli The best
part is that its QUICK to use and its very low in costs Ive found
that the most expensive ones arent always as good as the
cheaper ones too
So you dont always get what you pay for here
I like to use use the Joyce Chen mandoline or any of the ones you can find online
(including eBay) that are a similar style

3 A Turning Slicer (Spirali)
A good turning slicer will make really nice long noodles or
spaghetti out of vegetables such as zucchini (courgette)
jicama parsnip and carrots Its also another really quick
piece of equipment to use giving you impressive-looking
food with very little effort or skill required
Again Ive found that the more expensive turning slicers you find in restaurants arent
as good as the home versions I also dont like the top loading spiralisers as they give
pasta strands that are too thin ending mushy and soggy The brand I like is the Spriali
found online
4 A High-Speed Blender
The staple high-speed blender for the raw foodist is the Vita-
Mix Another good alternative is the Blendtech which I havent
got much experience of but people I know who do have them
swear by them But do you really need one I mean they are a
big investment so you want to know if its worth it right
The Vita-Mix is one of those peices of equipment I use everyday
I really does have the potential to change things for you Its so easy to whip up a
green smoothie by blending some spinach mango lemon juice and a little pure
water Just being able to do that and know youll feel amazing after drinking it can be
a life-saver
Its also amazing for turning nuts into cream giving you so many options as far as
making sauces and dips is concerned If you can stretch to a Vita-Mix they really are
worth it
5 A Nut Milk Bag
Nut milk bags are great for making creamy nut milk All you have to
do is blend up 3 cups of water and 1 cup of almond or brazil nuts
that have been soaked for 4 hours then pour it into the nut milk bagand squeeze
Youll end up with a bag full of nut pulp that can be used in other
recipes and a glass of beautiful nut milk that can be sweetened up and made into
milkshakes amongst other things

6 A Food Processor
A food processor is used for things that are thicker than would be
appropriate for the Vita-Mix Things such as breads pates and cracker
mixes are all great for the food processor
This is one of those items that you get what you pay for I used a
cheaper model for years and it lasted me really well but they I moved
up to the Cuisinart which is more expensive but also a really nice piece
of kit to use on a daily basis
A lot of people have had great success just using a very cheap hand blender which is
also great for traveling
7 A Dehydrator
Another one of those pieces of equipment I get asked
about ALOT You dont have to a dehydrator but it does
give you an extra dimension to what you do Youll be able
to create crackers breads lots more desserts
macaroonsthe list goes on
The Excalibur dehydrator is pretty much the staple dehydrator amongst raw foodies
but I really like using the TSM brand (pictured) It looks much nicer in the kitchen is
quieter than the Excalibur and is generally more pleasant to use
I would advise buying a cheap probe thermometer with it though as the temperature
markings arent too specific but using a thermometer in the whole provided on the
front door of the TSM unit you can easily keep an accurate temperature
Remember you dont have to run out and buy all this stuff straight away Take your
time with it work out what resources you have and really get to know one piece of
equipment before moving on to the next All the most fantastic equipment in the
world is no good if it just sits in a cupboard and doesnt get used -)

Combine all mozzarella ingredients in a Vita Mix or foodprocessor (a Vita Mix isnt a food processor its more of ablender but no other blender that I know of is suitable to makethe cheese so an ordinary processor is the next best thing)Blend until a creamy texture is achieved you may need to add acouple of tablespoons of extra water to get it all to mix Setaside

Mix all Red Pepper sauce ingredients in a Vita Mix orblender until smooth (blender is ok for this at the mixture is
saucier -) than the cheese) Again you may need to add waterto get a sauce consistency

Buckwheat Bread
MAKES 18 lsquoSLICESrsquo
frac12 cup olive oil1frac12 cups sun dried tomatoes soaked 1 hour3 cups sprouted buckwheat (2frac12 cups dry amp unsprouted)1frac12 cups flax meal (ground flax seed)3frac12 cups peeled zucchini roughly chopped2 apples cored and roughly chopped3 tablespoons lemon juice2 avocados1 large onionfrac12 cup minced parsley
In a processor grind the olive oil sun dried toms (removedfrom the soak water) sprouted buckwheat courgette applelemon juice avocados onion and herbs until thoroughly mixed
In a bowl mix the batter with the flax meal by hand Thereason you do this separately (not in the processor) is that youare likely to have too much mixture for the size if the processorat this point and when you add the flax meal it will becomequite heavy and sticky and overwork your machine
When mixed process the whole batter in the machineagain in small batches to achieve a light fluffy texture
Divide the mixture in 2 and place on Paraflexx sheets on
dehydrator trays
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly to all 4 sides andcorners of the Paraflexx sheet If mixture is too sticky you canwet the spatula to make things easier With a knife score thewhole thing into 9 squares
Dehydrate for 2 hours and then remove the Paraflexxsheets by placing another dehydrator tray and mesh on top andinvert so that your original sheet of bread is upside down Thatwill allow you to peel the Paralexx sheet off and continue todehydrate the underside of the bread
Dehydrate for approx 8 hours more (do this overnight soyoursquore not tempted to eat it before itrsquos ready) or until breadfeels light in your hand If the pieces donrsquot fully come apartwhere you scored use a knife to cut them

down a storm and I even had one person come up to me a couple of months ago
saying how she remembered that dish as ldquothe best raw food dish I had ever tastedrdquo
Praise indeed considering it was one of those recipes that just came together at the
right time on the night And the best thing is you donrsquot need a dehydrator to make it
That night we also served lasagne for which yoursquoll find the recipe in this eBook Irsquove
added an extra layer to the original recipe giving it a meaty walnut layer but you can
leave that out if you think itrsquos going to be too lsquonut-heavyrsquo for you This is such a great
recipe to make for friends raw or not and will last for a few days in the fridge Itrsquos
also great for making in a big lasagne dish and taking to pot-lucks if thatrsquos your
thing
Irsquom particularly happy with the buckwheat bread as itrsquos helped so many people stay
raw and I believe provides a real alternative to bread that will enable you to feel like
yoursquore really eating a proper sandwich Itrsquos also great for getting a couple of slices
and raiding the fridge for leftovers to make a sandwich Scooby Doo would be proud
of Some of my favourite meals have come from throwing together leftovers to create
something that would have otherwise not been created

The wilted kale and chipotle salad is a bit of a classic This is a spicy and slightly
sweet dish thatrsquoll allow you to actually enjoy eating lots of dark greens Just as a little
tip try substituting one avocado for a few tablespoons of tahinihellipdelicious
Finally we have the chocolate torte What can I say about this little dessert that hasnrsquot
already been said The recipe has changed very little since serving it at the very first
Fresh Network raw dinner party in Cambridgeshire all those years ago and it still
continues to keep people up into the night if eaten too late so beware
Enjoy these recipes whatever stage yoursquore at with raw foods Therersquos something for

What is raw food
WHEN I first heard about people that ate only raw food I couldnrsquot get my head
round it It seemed really extreme like some fad diet or some totally
unnecessary extension of the idea that fruits and vegetables are good for us
Then through various means I started to hear about raw foods more and more and
realised there was a whole lifestyle based around it that isnrsquot so extreme at all
Contrary to what I thought it didnrsquot mean I had to stop washing join any kind of cult
grow my hair long or become a lsquohippyrsquo
It also didnrsquot mean I even had to give up all my cooked food and eat completely raw
I realised I could just start bringing more and more raw foods into my diet as I felt
comfortable I mean everyone knows that fruits and vegetables in their natural state
are good for you so any extra I could get in would be a bonus
What actually happened though was that as soon as I started experiencing the
benefits tied with the fact that I had started meeting some really wonderful people
in the raw food world I really felt as if I wanted to go lsquoall rawrsquo
Yoursquoll sometimes hear raw food called the lsquoraw food dietrsquo but as Irsquove alluded to here
itrsquos not so much of a diet in the traditional sense as it is a lifestyle Sure lots of people
are able to lose weight but itrsquos quite unique in that many people come to it for allsorts of reasons including a variety of health concerns because they want extra
energy or they are simply curious about what effects they will experience by eating
food the way nature intended
Does this mean you have to eat EVERYTHING raw from now on Absolutely not My
philosophy is to add raw foods to what you are already doing and find the level thatrsquos
right for you

So back to the original question what is raw food
The easiest way to describe it is to say that raw foods are free from animal products
and havenrsquot been heated over the critical temperature that itrsquos thought most of the
enzymes are lost (around 118 degrees F) When we heat food even higher we then
start to lose other nutrients such as the vitamins minerals and other proteins
What are enzymes
Enzymes are made up of various proteins and are part of every one of your body
functions including sight hearing and most importantly in this case digestion
Simply put without enzymes we donrsquot function
We have enzymes that our own body produces and we also get enzymes from the food
we eat And this is the critical point if you eat food with the enzymes still intact then
your body doesnrsquot have to overwork to use the enzymes it produces to digest that food
There are many different types of enzymes so nature has done a wonderful job by
placing within each type of food exactly the type of enzymes that are needed to digest
that particular food
Irsquom not a nutritionist so what Irsquove learnt is through my own research therersquos so much
more information out there about why raw food is nutritionally superior and suited to
our bodies and will give you much more information and insight than I can in this
short space ndash I urge you to go out and read plenty of it
So raw doesnrsquot necessarily mean that the food hasnrsquot been heat treated ndash it just hasnrsquot
been cooked in the traditional way By using processes such as dehydrating juicing
sprouting blending and food processing itrsquos possible to eat an exciting and varied raw
food diet you may even attract some positive interest from your friends and family
If yoursquore looking for a great introduction to raw food I really recommend you check
out The Raw Food Coachrsquos lsquoHow To Get Started With Raw Foodsrsquo It will definitely get
you off to a flying start if yoursquore new to all this but will also teach you a thing or two
even if yoursquove been around a while Click here to check it out
Itrsquos part of my mission to bring recipes and food to the world that helps present rawfood in a way that seems exciting mouth-watering and accessible Itrsquos all really about
moving towards what you want not away from what you donrsquot want

By far the biggest category of question I get is asking about raw food equipment
Questions such as whats the best dehydrator or do I need a Vita-Mix
So Ive put together this list of my top 7 pieces of equipment to get started on raw
food You can then pick and choose based on your resources
1 A Sharp Knife amp Good Chopping Board
I dont know if youve noticed but youre going to be doing a little
more chopping of fruits and vegetables than perhaps youre
used to -) By far the most important equipment you can get is
a SHARP knife and a good chopping board
If you try and start off this lifestyle with a blunt knife you will be miserable lol I say
that with my tongue in my cheek but theres definitely a serious point to be be made
here ndash chopping with a dull (blunt) knife is going to take you so much longer to do
anything and theres actually more of a chance youll cut yourself because of having
to push too hard
Once you get yourself a nice new sharp knife from a manufacturer such as Mac
Henckels or Wusthoff youll wonder how you ever managed with your old blunt knife
thats been clattering around in the drawer for years
I really love using wooden chopping boards particularly bamboo
2 A Mandoline
Im not talking about the musical instrument here Im talking about the
piece of equipment that slices things paper thin giving amazing results
as far as presentation is concerned It will allow you to turn things such
as beets (beetroot) into thin slices for beautiful ravioli The best
part is that its QUICK to use and its very low in costs Ive found
that the most expensive ones arent always as good as the
cheaper ones too
So you dont always get what you pay for here
I like to use use the Joyce Chen mandoline or any of the ones you can find online
(including eBay) that are a similar style

3 A Turning Slicer (Spirali)
A good turning slicer will make really nice long noodles or
spaghetti out of vegetables such as zucchini (courgette)
jicama parsnip and carrots Its also another really quick
piece of equipment to use giving you impressive-looking
food with very little effort or skill required
Again Ive found that the more expensive turning slicers you find in restaurants arent
as good as the home versions I also dont like the top loading spiralisers as they give
pasta strands that are too thin ending mushy and soggy The brand I like is the Spriali
found online
4 A High-Speed Blender
The staple high-speed blender for the raw foodist is the Vita-
Mix Another good alternative is the Blendtech which I havent
got much experience of but people I know who do have them
swear by them But do you really need one I mean they are a
big investment so you want to know if its worth it right
The Vita-Mix is one of those peices of equipment I use everyday
I really does have the potential to change things for you Its so easy to whip up a
green smoothie by blending some spinach mango lemon juice and a little pure
water Just being able to do that and know youll feel amazing after drinking it can be
a life-saver
Its also amazing for turning nuts into cream giving you so many options as far as
making sauces and dips is concerned If you can stretch to a Vita-Mix they really are
worth it
5 A Nut Milk Bag
Nut milk bags are great for making creamy nut milk All you have to
do is blend up 3 cups of water and 1 cup of almond or brazil nuts
that have been soaked for 4 hours then pour it into the nut milk bagand squeeze
Youll end up with a bag full of nut pulp that can be used in other
recipes and a glass of beautiful nut milk that can be sweetened up and made into
milkshakes amongst other things

6 A Food Processor
A food processor is used for things that are thicker than would be
appropriate for the Vita-Mix Things such as breads pates and cracker
mixes are all great for the food processor
This is one of those items that you get what you pay for I used a
cheaper model for years and it lasted me really well but they I moved
up to the Cuisinart which is more expensive but also a really nice piece
of kit to use on a daily basis
A lot of people have had great success just using a very cheap hand blender which is
also great for traveling
7 A Dehydrator
Another one of those pieces of equipment I get asked
about ALOT You dont have to a dehydrator but it does
give you an extra dimension to what you do Youll be able
to create crackers breads lots more desserts
macaroonsthe list goes on
The Excalibur dehydrator is pretty much the staple dehydrator amongst raw foodies
but I really like using the TSM brand (pictured) It looks much nicer in the kitchen is
quieter than the Excalibur and is generally more pleasant to use
I would advise buying a cheap probe thermometer with it though as the temperature
markings arent too specific but using a thermometer in the whole provided on the
front door of the TSM unit you can easily keep an accurate temperature
Remember you dont have to run out and buy all this stuff straight away Take your
time with it work out what resources you have and really get to know one piece of
equipment before moving on to the next All the most fantastic equipment in the
world is no good if it just sits in a cupboard and doesnt get used -)

Buckwheat Bread
MAKES 18 lsquoSLICESrsquo
frac12 cup olive oil1frac12 cups sun dried tomatoes soaked 1 hour3 cups sprouted buckwheat (2frac12 cups dry amp unsprouted)1frac12 cups flax meal (ground flax seed)3frac12 cups peeled zucchini roughly chopped2 apples cored and roughly chopped3 tablespoons lemon juice2 avocados1 large onionfrac12 cup minced parsley
In a processor grind the olive oil sun dried toms (removedfrom the soak water) sprouted buckwheat courgette applelemon juice avocados onion and herbs until thoroughly mixed
In a bowl mix the batter with the flax meal by hand Thereason you do this separately (not in the processor) is that youare likely to have too much mixture for the size if the processorat this point and when you add the flax meal it will becomequite heavy and sticky and overwork your machine
When mixed process the whole batter in the machineagain in small batches to achieve a light fluffy texture
Divide the mixture in 2 and place on Paraflexx sheets on
dehydrator trays
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly to all 4 sides andcorners of the Paraflexx sheet If mixture is too sticky you canwet the spatula to make things easier With a knife score thewhole thing into 9 squares
Dehydrate for 2 hours and then remove the Paraflexxsheets by placing another dehydrator tray and mesh on top andinvert so that your original sheet of bread is upside down Thatwill allow you to peel the Paralexx sheet off and continue todehydrate the underside of the bread
Dehydrate for approx 8 hours more (do this overnight soyoursquore not tempted to eat it before itrsquos ready) or until breadfeels light in your hand If the pieces donrsquot fully come apartwhere you scored use a knife to cut them

Introduction
THESE five recipes are all very dear to me They represent an early part of my
career as a raw chef and all have stories attached to them Of course as Irsquove
learnt new things Irsquove updated and improved them so theyrsquore even more satisfying
then when I first served them
The tomato and mozzarella linguine was first served as a starter at a raw food dinner
party I hosted in conjunction with The Fresh Network in Soho London We hired a
little vegan restaurant called Vita-Organic and sold out the 35 seats very quickly ndash
seems people were ready to eat raw food in a restaurant setting in London It went
down a storm and I even had one person come up to me a couple of months ago
saying how she remembered that dish as ldquothe best raw food dish I had ever tastedrdquo
Praise indeed considering it was one of those recipes that just came together at the
right time on the night And the best thing is you donrsquot need a dehydrator to make it
That night we also served lasagne for which yoursquoll find the recipe in this eBook Irsquove
added an extra layer to the original recipe giving it a meaty walnut layer but you can
leave that out if you think itrsquos going to be too lsquonut-heavyrsquo for you This is such a great
recipe to make for friends raw or not and will last for a few days in the fridge Itrsquos
also great for making in a big lasagne dish and taking to pot-lucks if thatrsquos your
thing
Irsquom particularly happy with the buckwheat bread as itrsquos helped so many people stay
raw and I believe provides a real alternative to bread that will enable you to feel like
yoursquore really eating a proper sandwich Itrsquos also great for getting a couple of slices
and raiding the fridge for leftovers to make a sandwich Scooby Doo would be proud
of Some of my favourite meals have come from throwing together leftovers to create
something that would have otherwise not been created

So back to the original question what is raw food
The easiest way to describe it is to say that raw foods are free from animal products
and havenrsquot been heated over the critical temperature that itrsquos thought most of the
enzymes are lost (around 118 degrees F) When we heat food even higher we then
start to lose other nutrients such as the vitamins minerals and other proteins
What are enzymes
Enzymes are made up of various proteins and are part of every one of your body
functions including sight hearing and most importantly in this case digestion
Simply put without enzymes we donrsquot function
We have enzymes that our own body produces and we also get enzymes from the food
we eat And this is the critical point if you eat food with the enzymes still intact then
your body doesnrsquot have to overwork to use the enzymes it produces to digest that food
There are many different types of enzymes so nature has done a wonderful job by
placing within each type of food exactly the type of enzymes that are needed to digest
that particular food
Irsquom not a nutritionist so what Irsquove learnt is through my own research therersquos so much
more information out there about why raw food is nutritionally superior and suited to
our bodies and will give you much more information and insight than I can in this
short space ndash I urge you to go out and read plenty of it
So raw doesnrsquot necessarily mean that the food hasnrsquot been heat treated ndash it just hasnrsquot
been cooked in the traditional way By using processes such as dehydrating juicing
sprouting blending and food processing itrsquos possible to eat an exciting and varied raw
food diet you may even attract some positive interest from your friends and family
If yoursquore looking for a great introduction to raw food I really recommend you check

you off to a flying start if yoursquore new to all this but will also teach you a thing or two

By far the biggest category of question I get is asking about raw food equipment
Questions such as whats the best dehydrator or do I need a Vita-Mix
So Ive put together this list of my top 7 pieces of equipment to get started on raw
food You can then pick and choose based on your resources
1 A Sharp Knife amp Good Chopping Board
I dont know if youve noticed but youre going to be doing a little
more chopping of fruits and vegetables than perhaps youre
used to -) By far the most important equipment you can get is
a SHARP knife and a good chopping board
If you try and start off this lifestyle with a blunt knife you will be miserable lol I say
that with my tongue in my cheek but theres definitely a serious point to be be made
here ndash chopping with a dull (blunt) knife is going to take you so much longer to do
anything and theres actually more of a chance youll cut yourself because of having
to push too hard
Once you get yourself a nice new sharp knife from a manufacturer such as Mac
Henckels or Wusthoff youll wonder how you ever managed with your old blunt knife
thats been clattering around in the drawer for years
I really love using wooden chopping boards particularly bamboo
2 A Mandoline
Im not talking about the musical instrument here Im talking about the
piece of equipment that slices things paper thin giving amazing results
as far as presentation is concerned It will allow you to turn things such
as beets (beetroot) into thin slices for beautiful ravioli The best
part is that its QUICK to use and its very low in costs Ive found
that the most expensive ones arent always as good as the
cheaper ones too
So you dont always get what you pay for here
I like to use use the Joyce Chen mandoline or any of the ones you can find online
(including eBay) that are a similar style

3 A Turning Slicer (Spirali)
A good turning slicer will make really nice long noodles or
spaghetti out of vegetables such as zucchini (courgette)
jicama parsnip and carrots Its also another really quick
piece of equipment to use giving you impressive-looking
food with very little effort or skill required
Again Ive found that the more expensive turning slicers you find in restaurants arent
as good as the home versions I also dont like the top loading spiralisers as they give
pasta strands that are too thin ending mushy and soggy The brand I like is the Spriali
found online
4 A High-Speed Blender
The staple high-speed blender for the raw foodist is the Vita-
Mix Another good alternative is the Blendtech which I havent
got much experience of but people I know who do have them
swear by them But do you really need one I mean they are a
big investment so you want to know if its worth it right
The Vita-Mix is one of those peices of equipment I use everyday
I really does have the potential to change things for you Its so easy to whip up a
green smoothie by blending some spinach mango lemon juice and a little pure
water Just being able to do that and know youll feel amazing after drinking it can be
a life-saver
Its also amazing for turning nuts into cream giving you so many options as far as
making sauces and dips is concerned If you can stretch to a Vita-Mix they really are
worth it
5 A Nut Milk Bag
Nut milk bags are great for making creamy nut milk All you have to
do is blend up 3 cups of water and 1 cup of almond or brazil nuts
that have been soaked for 4 hours then pour it into the nut milk bagand squeeze
Youll end up with a bag full of nut pulp that can be used in other
recipes and a glass of beautiful nut milk that can be sweetened up and made into
milkshakes amongst other things

6 A Food Processor
A food processor is used for things that are thicker than would be
appropriate for the Vita-Mix Things such as breads pates and cracker
mixes are all great for the food processor
This is one of those items that you get what you pay for I used a
cheaper model for years and it lasted me really well but they I moved
up to the Cuisinart which is more expensive but also a really nice piece
of kit to use on a daily basis
A lot of people have had great success just using a very cheap hand blender which is
also great for traveling
7 A Dehydrator
Another one of those pieces of equipment I get asked
about ALOT You dont have to a dehydrator but it does
give you an extra dimension to what you do Youll be able
to create crackers breads lots more desserts
macaroonsthe list goes on
The Excalibur dehydrator is pretty much the staple dehydrator amongst raw foodies
but I really like using the TSM brand (pictured) It looks much nicer in the kitchen is
quieter than the Excalibur and is generally more pleasant to use
I would advise buying a cheap probe thermometer with it though as the temperature
markings arent too specific but using a thermometer in the whole provided on the
front door of the TSM unit you can easily keep an accurate temperature
Remember you dont have to run out and buy all this stuff straight away Take your
time with it work out what resources you have and really get to know one piece of
equipment before moving on to the next All the most fantastic equipment in the
world is no good if it just sits in a cupboard and doesnt get used -)

Buckwheat Bread
MAKES 18 lsquoSLICESrsquo
frac12 cup olive oil1frac12 cups sun dried tomatoes soaked 1 hour3 cups sprouted buckwheat (2frac12 cups dry amp unsprouted)1frac12 cups flax meal (ground flax seed)3frac12 cups peeled zucchini roughly chopped2 apples cored and roughly chopped3 tablespoons lemon juice2 avocados1 large onionfrac12 cup minced parsley
In a processor grind the olive oil sun dried toms (removedfrom the soak water) sprouted buckwheat courgette applelemon juice avocados onion and herbs until thoroughly mixed
In a bowl mix the batter with the flax meal by hand Thereason you do this separately (not in the processor) is that youare likely to have too much mixture for the size if the processorat this point and when you add the flax meal it will becomequite heavy and sticky and overwork your machine
When mixed process the whole batter in the machineagain in small batches to achieve a light fluffy texture
Divide the mixture in 2 and place on Paraflexx sheets on
dehydrator trays
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly to all 4 sides andcorners of the Paraflexx sheet If mixture is too sticky you canwet the spatula to make things easier With a knife score thewhole thing into 9 squares
Dehydrate for 2 hours and then remove the Paraflexxsheets by placing another dehydrator tray and mesh on top andinvert so that your original sheet of bread is upside down Thatwill allow you to peel the Paralexx sheet off and continue todehydrate the underside of the bread
Dehydrate for approx 8 hours more (do this overnight soyoursquore not tempted to eat it before itrsquos ready) or until breadfeels light in your hand If the pieces donrsquot fully come apartwhere you scored use a knife to cut them

What is raw food
WHEN I first heard about people that ate only raw food I couldnrsquot get my head
round it It seemed really extreme like some fad diet or some totally
unnecessary extension of the idea that fruits and vegetables are good for us
Then through various means I started to hear about raw foods more and more and
realised there was a whole lifestyle based around it that isnrsquot so extreme at all
Contrary to what I thought it didnrsquot mean I had to stop washing join any kind of cult
grow my hair long or become a lsquohippyrsquo
It also didnrsquot mean I even had to give up all my cooked food and eat completely raw
I realised I could just start bringing more and more raw foods into my diet as I felt
comfortable I mean everyone knows that fruits and vegetables in their natural state
are good for you so any extra I could get in would be a bonus
What actually happened though was that as soon as I started experiencing the
benefits tied with the fact that I had started meeting some really wonderful people
in the raw food world I really felt as if I wanted to go lsquoall rawrsquo
Yoursquoll sometimes hear raw food called the lsquoraw food dietrsquo but as Irsquove alluded to here
itrsquos not so much of a diet in the traditional sense as it is a lifestyle Sure lots of people
are able to lose weight but itrsquos quite unique in that many people come to it for allsorts of reasons including a variety of health concerns because they want extra
energy or they are simply curious about what effects they will experience by eating
food the way nature intended
Does this mean you have to eat EVERYTHING raw from now on Absolutely not My
philosophy is to add raw foods to what you are already doing and find the level thatrsquos
right for you

6 A Food Processor
A food processor is used for things that are thicker than would be
appropriate for the Vita-Mix Things such as breads pates and cracker
mixes are all great for the food processor
This is one of those items that you get what you pay for I used a
cheaper model for years and it lasted me really well but they I moved
up to the Cuisinart which is more expensive but also a really nice piece
of kit to use on a daily basis
A lot of people have had great success just using a very cheap hand blender which is
also great for traveling
7 A Dehydrator
Another one of those pieces of equipment I get asked
about ALOT You dont have to a dehydrator but it does
give you an extra dimension to what you do Youll be able
to create crackers breads lots more desserts
macaroonsthe list goes on
The Excalibur dehydrator is pretty much the staple dehydrator amongst raw foodies
but I really like using the TSM brand (pictured) It looks much nicer in the kitchen is
quieter than the Excalibur and is generally more pleasant to use
I would advise buying a cheap probe thermometer with it though as the temperature
markings arent too specific but using a thermometer in the whole provided on the
front door of the TSM unit you can easily keep an accurate temperature
Remember you dont have to run out and buy all this stuff straight away Take your
time with it work out what resources you have and really get to know one piece of
equipment before moving on to the next All the most fantastic equipment in the
world is no good if it just sits in a cupboard and doesnt get used -)

Buckwheat Bread

In a processor grind the olive oil sun dried toms (removedfrom the soak water) sprouted buckwheat courgette applelemon juice avocados onion and herbs until thoroughly mixed
In a bowl mix the batter with the flax meal by hand Thereason you do this separately (not in the processor) is that youare likely to have too much mixture for the size if the processorat this point and when you add the flax meal it will becomequite heavy and sticky and overwork your machine
When mixed process the whole batter in the machineagain in small batches to achieve a light fluffy texture
Divide the mixture in 2 and place on Paraflexx sheets on
dehydrator trays
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly to all 4 sides andcorners of the Paraflexx sheet If mixture is too sticky you canwet the spatula to make things easier With a knife score thewhole thing into 9 squares
Dehydrate for 2 hours and then remove the Paraflexxsheets by placing another dehydrator tray and mesh on top andinvert so that your original sheet of bread is upside down Thatwill allow you to peel the Paralexx sheet off and continue todehydrate the underside of the bread
Dehydrate for approx 8 hours more (do this overnight soyoursquore not tempted to eat it before itrsquos ready) or until breadfeels light in your hand If the pieces donrsquot fully come apartwhere you scored use a knife to cut them

Having healed himself from acne Russell quickly got excited about
the vibrancy and creativity of raw foods and the health benefits they
could bring to others
With a desire to bring it into mainstream awareness in a way that is
fun and modern he set about following his passion at first as a
hobby
Marrying his newfound passion for creating healthy food with his
artistic nature ndash which had been with him as a child through to art
school - he started posting pictures of his food on his blog
Russell discovered techniques and a natural ability to create beautiful raw recipes from widely
available ingredients and started teaching people in his local area
News spread and Russell soon found himself teaching people from all over the UK and even people
from other countries in Europe and the US who would travel to come and be taught by him
Russell has now taught thousands of people about raw food through his classes online courses
DVDs eBooks and at guest instructor appearances

What is raw food
WHEN I first heard about people that ate only raw food I couldnrsquot get my head
round it It seemed really extreme like some fad diet or some totally
unnecessary extension of the idea that fruits and vegetables are good for us
Then through various means I started to hear about raw foods more and more and
realised there was a whole lifestyle based around it that isnrsquot so extreme at all
Contrary to what I thought it didnrsquot mean I had to stop washing join any kind of cult
grow my hair long or become a lsquohippyrsquo
It also didnrsquot mean I even had to give up all my cooked food and eat completely raw
I realised I could just start bringing more and more raw foods into my diet as I felt
comfortable I mean everyone knows that fruits and vegetables in their natural state
are good for you so any extra I could get in would be a bonus
What actually happened though was that as soon as I started experiencing the
benefits tied with the fact that I had started meeting some really wonderful people
in the raw food world I really felt as if I wanted to go lsquoall rawrsquo
Yoursquoll sometimes hear raw food called the lsquoraw food dietrsquo but as Irsquove alluded to here
itrsquos not so much of a diet in the traditional sense as it is a lifestyle Sure lots of people
are able to lose weight but itrsquos quite unique in that many people come to it for allsorts of reasons including a variety of health concerns because they want extra
energy or they are simply curious about what effects they will experience by eating
food the way nature intended
Does this mean you have to eat EVERYTHING raw from now on Absolutely not My
philosophy is to add raw foods to what you are already doing and find the level thatrsquos
right for you

So back to the original question what is raw food
The easiest way to describe it is to say that raw foods are free from animal products
and havenrsquot been heated over the critical temperature that itrsquos thought most of the
enzymes are lost (around 118 degrees F) When we heat food even higher we then
start to lose other nutrients such as the vitamins minerals and other proteins
What are enzymes
Enzymes are made up of various proteins and are part of every one of your body
functions including sight hearing and most importantly in this case digestion
Simply put without enzymes we donrsquot function
We have enzymes that our own body produces and we also get enzymes from the food
we eat And this is the critical point if you eat food with the enzymes still intact then
your body doesnrsquot have to overwork to use the enzymes it produces to digest that food
There are many different types of enzymes so nature has done a wonderful job by
placing within each type of food exactly the type of enzymes that are needed to digest
that particular food
Irsquom not a nutritionist so what Irsquove learnt is through my own research therersquos so much
more information out there about why raw food is nutritionally superior and suited to
our bodies and will give you much more information and insight than I can in this
short space ndash I urge you to go out and read plenty of it
So raw doesnrsquot necessarily mean that the food hasnrsquot been heat treated ndash it just hasnrsquot
been cooked in the traditional way By using processes such as dehydrating juicing
sprouting blending and food processing itrsquos possible to eat an exciting and varied raw
food diet you may even attract some positive interest from your friends and family
If yoursquore looking for a great introduction to raw food I really recommend you check
out The Raw Food Coachrsquos lsquoHow To Get Started With Raw Foodsrsquo It will definitely get
you off to a flying start if yoursquore new to all this but will also teach you a thing or two
even if yoursquove been around a while Click here to check it out
Itrsquos part of my mission to bring recipes and food to the world that helps present rawfood in a way that seems exciting mouth-watering and accessible Itrsquos all really about
moving towards what you want not away from what you donrsquot want

By far the biggest category of question I get is asking about raw food equipment
Questions such as whats the best dehydrator or do I need a Vita-Mix
So Ive put together this list of my top 7 pieces of equipment to get started on raw
food You can then pick and choose based on your resources
1 A Sharp Knife amp Good Chopping Board
I dont know if youve noticed but youre going to be doing a little
more chopping of fruits and vegetables than perhaps youre
used to -) By far the most important equipment you can get is
a SHARP knife and a good chopping board
If you try and start off this lifestyle with a blunt knife you will be miserable lol I say
that with my tongue in my cheek but theres definitely a serious point to be be made
here ndash chopping with a dull (blunt) knife is going to take you so much longer to do
anything and theres actually more of a chance youll cut yourself because of having
to push too hard
Once you get yourself a nice new sharp knife from a manufacturer such as Mac
Henckels or Wusthoff youll wonder how you ever managed with your old blunt knife
thats been clattering around in the drawer for years
I really love using wooden chopping boards particularly bamboo
2 A Mandoline
Im not talking about the musical instrument here Im talking about the
piece of equipment that slices things paper thin giving amazing results
as far as presentation is concerned It will allow you to turn things such
as beets (beetroot) into thin slices for beautiful ravioli The best
part is that its QUICK to use and its very low in costs Ive found
that the most expensive ones arent always as good as the
cheaper ones too
So you dont always get what you pay for here
I like to use use the Joyce Chen mandoline or any of the ones you can find online
(including eBay) that are a similar style

3 A Turning Slicer (Spirali)
A good turning slicer will make really nice long noodles or
spaghetti out of vegetables such as zucchini (courgette)
jicama parsnip and carrots Its also another really quick
piece of equipment to use giving you impressive-looking
food with very little effort or skill required
Again Ive found that the more expensive turning slicers you find in restaurants arent
as good as the home versions I also dont like the top loading spiralisers as they give
pasta strands that are too thin ending mushy and soggy The brand I like is the Spriali
found online
4 A High-Speed Blender
The staple high-speed blender for the raw foodist is the Vita-
Mix Another good alternative is the Blendtech which I havent
got much experience of but people I know who do have them
swear by them But do you really need one I mean they are a
big investment so you want to know if its worth it right
The Vita-Mix is one of those peices of equipment I use everyday
I really does have the potential to change things for you Its so easy to whip up a
green smoothie by blending some spinach mango lemon juice and a little pure
water Just being able to do that and know youll feel amazing after drinking it can be
a life-saver
Its also amazing for turning nuts into cream giving you so many options as far as
making sauces and dips is concerned If you can stretch to a Vita-Mix they really are
worth it
5 A Nut Milk Bag
Nut milk bags are great for making creamy nut milk All you have to
do is blend up 3 cups of water and 1 cup of almond or brazil nuts
that have been soaked for 4 hours then pour it into the nut milk bagand squeeze
Youll end up with a bag full of nut pulp that can be used in other
recipes and a glass of beautiful nut milk that can be sweetened up and made into
milkshakes amongst other things

mixes are all great for the food processor
This is one of those items that you get what you pay for I used a
cheaper model for years and it lasted me really well but they I moved
up to the Cuisinart which is more expensive but also a really nice piece
of kit to use on a daily basis
A lot of people have had great success just using a very cheap hand blender which is
also great for traveling
7 A Dehydrator
Another one of those pieces of equipment I get asked
about ALOT You dont have to a dehydrator but it does
give you an extra dimension to what you do Youll be able
to create crackers breads lots more desserts
macaroonsthe list goes on
The Excalibur dehydrator is pretty much the staple dehydrator amongst raw foodies
but I really like using the TSM brand (pictured) It looks much nicer in the kitchen is
quieter than the Excalibur and is generally more pleasant to use
I would advise buying a cheap probe thermometer with it though as the temperature
markings arent too specific but using a thermometer in the whole provided on the
front door of the TSM unit you can easily keep an accurate temperature
Remember you dont have to run out and buy all this stuff straight away Take your
time with it work out what resources you have and really get to know one piece of
equipment before moving on to the next All the most fantastic equipment in the
world is no good if it just sits in a cupboard and doesnt get used -)

In a processor grind the olive oil sun dried toms (removedfrom the soak water) sprouted buckwheat courgette applelemon juice avocados onion and herbs until thoroughly mixed
In a bowl mix the batter with the flax meal by hand Thereason you do this separately (not in the processor) is that youare likely to have too much mixture for the size if the processorat this point and when you add the flax meal it will becomequite heavy and sticky and overwork your machine
When mixed process the whole batter in the machineagain in small batches to achieve a light fluffy texture
Divide the mixture in 2 and place on Paraflexx sheets on
dehydrator trays
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly to all 4 sides andcorners of the Paraflexx sheet If mixture is too sticky you canwet the spatula to make things easier With a knife score thewhole thing into 9 squares
Dehydrate for 2 hours and then remove the Paraflexxsheets by placing another dehydrator tray and mesh on top andinvert so that your original sheet of bread is upside down Thatwill allow you to peel the Paralexx sheet off and continue todehydrate the underside of the bread
Dehydrate for approx 8 hours more (do this overnight soyoursquore not tempted to eat it before itrsquos ready) or until breadfeels light in your hand If the pieces donrsquot fully come apartwhere you scored use a knife to cut them

Having healed himself from acne Russell quickly got excited about
the vibrancy and creativity of raw foods and the health benefits they
could bring to others
With a desire to bring it into mainstream awareness in a way that is
fun and modern he set about following his passion at first as a
hobby
Marrying his newfound passion for creating healthy food with his
artistic nature ndash which had been with him as a child through to art
school - he started posting pictures of his food on his blog
Russell discovered techniques and a natural ability to create beautiful raw recipes from widely
available ingredients and started teaching people in his local area
News spread and Russell soon found himself teaching people from all over the UK and even people
from other countries in Europe and the US who would travel to come and be taught by him
Russell has now taught thousands of people about raw food through his classes online courses
DVDs eBooks and at guest instructor appearances
Russellrsquos passion is to show you that far from feeling restricted on a raw food diet you have an
abundance of options whether that being eating raw sandwiches all week or putting on a show-
stopping dinner party for friends

So back to the original question what is raw food
The easiest way to describe it is to say that raw foods are free from animal products
and havenrsquot been heated over the critical temperature that itrsquos thought most of the
enzymes are lost (around 118 degrees F) When we heat food even higher we then
start to lose other nutrients such as the vitamins minerals and other proteins
What are enzymes
Enzymes are made up of various proteins and are part of every one of your body
functions including sight hearing and most importantly in this case digestion
Simply put without enzymes we donrsquot function
We have enzymes that our own body produces and we also get enzymes from the food
we eat And this is the critical point if you eat food with the enzymes still intact then
your body doesnrsquot have to overwork to use the enzymes it produces to digest that food
There are many different types of enzymes so nature has done a wonderful job by
placing within each type of food exactly the type of enzymes that are needed to digest
that particular food
Irsquom not a nutritionist so what Irsquove learnt is through my own research therersquos so much
more information out there about why raw food is nutritionally superior and suited to
our bodies and will give you much more information and insight than I can in this
short space ndash I urge you to go out and read plenty of it
So raw doesnrsquot necessarily mean that the food hasnrsquot been heat treated ndash it just hasnrsquot
been cooked in the traditional way By using processes such as dehydrating juicing
sprouting blending and food processing itrsquos possible to eat an exciting and varied raw
food diet you may even attract some positive interest from your friends and family
If yoursquore looking for a great introduction to raw food I really recommend you check
out The Raw Food Coachrsquos lsquoHow To Get Started With Raw Foodsrsquo It will definitely get
you off to a flying start if yoursquore new to all this but will also teach you a thing or two
even if yoursquove been around a while Click here to check it out
Itrsquos part of my mission to bring recipes and food to the world that helps present rawfood in a way that seems exciting mouth-watering and accessible Itrsquos all really about
moving towards what you want not away from what you donrsquot want

By far the biggest category of question I get is asking about raw food equipment
Questions such as whats the best dehydrator or do I need a Vita-Mix
So Ive put together this list of my top 7 pieces of equipment to get started on raw
food You can then pick and choose based on your resources
1 A Sharp Knife amp Good Chopping Board
I dont know if youve noticed but youre going to be doing a little
more chopping of fruits and vegetables than perhaps youre
used to -) By far the most important equipment you can get is
a SHARP knife and a good chopping board
If you try and start off this lifestyle with a blunt knife you will be miserable lol I say
that with my tongue in my cheek but theres definitely a serious point to be be made
here ndash chopping with a dull (blunt) knife is going to take you so much longer to do
anything and theres actually more of a chance youll cut yourself because of having
to push too hard
Once you get yourself a nice new sharp knife from a manufacturer such as Mac
Henckels or Wusthoff youll wonder how you ever managed with your old blunt knife
thats been clattering around in the drawer for years
I really love using wooden chopping boards particularly bamboo
2 A Mandoline
Im not talking about the musical instrument here Im talking about the
piece of equipment that slices things paper thin giving amazing results
as far as presentation is concerned It will allow you to turn things such
as beets (beetroot) into thin slices for beautiful ravioli The best
part is that its QUICK to use and its very low in costs Ive found
that the most expensive ones arent always as good as the
cheaper ones too
So you dont always get what you pay for here
I like to use use the Joyce Chen mandoline or any of the ones you can find online
(including eBay) that are a similar style

3 A Turning Slicer (Spirali)
A good turning slicer will make really nice long noodles or
spaghetti out of vegetables such as zucchini (courgette)
jicama parsnip and carrots Its also another really quick
piece of equipment to use giving you impressive-looking
food with very little effort or skill required
Again Ive found that the more expensive turning slicers you find in restaurants arent
as good as the home versions I also dont like the top loading spiralisers as they give
pasta strands that are too thin ending mushy and soggy The brand I like is the Spriali
found online
4 A High-Speed Blender
The staple high-speed blender for the raw foodist is the Vita-
Mix Another good alternative is the Blendtech which I havent
got much experience of but people I know who do have them
swear by them But do you really need one I mean they are a
big investment so you want to know if its worth it right
The Vita-Mix is one of those peices of equipment I use everyday
I really does have the potential to change things for you Its so easy to whip up a
green smoothie by blending some spinach mango lemon juice and a little pure
water Just being able to do that and know youll feel amazing after drinking it can be
a life-saver
Its also amazing for turning nuts into cream giving you so many options as far as
making sauces and dips is concerned If you can stretch to a Vita-Mix they really are
worth it
5 A Nut Milk Bag
Nut milk bags are great for making creamy nut milk All you have to
do is blend up 3 cups of water and 1 cup of almond or brazil nuts
that have been soaked for 4 hours then pour it into the nut milk bagand squeeze
Youll end up with a bag full of nut pulp that can be used in other
recipes and a glass of beautiful nut milk that can be sweetened up and made into
milkshakes amongst other things

6 A Food Processor
A food processor is used for things that are thicker than would be
appropriate for the Vita-Mix Things such as breads pates and cracker
mixes are all great for the food processor
This is one of those items that you get what you pay for I used a
cheaper model for years and it lasted me really well but they I moved
up to the Cuisinart which is more expensive but also a really nice piece
of kit to use on a daily basis
A lot of people have had great success just using a very cheap hand blender which is
also great for traveling
7 A Dehydrator
Another one of those pieces of equipment I get asked
about ALOT You dont have to a dehydrator but it does
give you an extra dimension to what you do Youll be able
to create crackers breads lots more desserts
macaroonsthe list goes on
The Excalibur dehydrator is pretty much the staple dehydrator amongst raw foodies
but I really like using the TSM brand (pictured) It looks much nicer in the kitchen is
quieter than the Excalibur and is generally more pleasant to use
I would advise buying a cheap probe thermometer with it though as the temperature
markings arent too specific but using a thermometer in the whole provided on the
front door of the TSM unit you can easily keep an accurate temperature
Remember you dont have to run out and buy all this stuff straight away Take your
time with it work out what resources you have and really get to know one piece of
equipment before moving on to the next All the most fantastic equipment in the
world is no good if it just sits in a cupboard and doesnt get used -)

Mix all Red Pepper sauce ingredients in a Vita Mix orblender until smooth (blender is ok for this at the mixture is
saucier -) than the cheese) Again you may need to add waterto get a sauce consistency

By far the biggest category of question I get is asking about raw food equipment
Questions such as whats the best dehydrator or do I need a Vita-Mix
So Ive put together this list of my top 7 pieces of equipment to get started on raw
food You can then pick and choose based on your resources
1 A Sharp Knife amp Good Chopping Board
I dont know if youve noticed but youre going to be doing a little
more chopping of fruits and vegetables than perhaps youre
used to -) By far the most important equipment you can get is
a SHARP knife and a good chopping board
If you try and start off this lifestyle with a blunt knife you will be miserable lol I say
that with my tongue in my cheek but theres definitely a serious point to be be made
here ndash chopping with a dull (blunt) knife is going to take you so much longer to do
anything and theres actually more of a chance youll cut yourself because of having
to push too hard
Once you get yourself a nice new sharp knife from a manufacturer such as Mac
Henckels or Wusthoff youll wonder how you ever managed with your old blunt knife
thats been clattering around in the drawer for years
I really love using wooden chopping boards particularly bamboo
2 A Mandoline
Im not talking about the musical instrument here Im talking about the
piece of equipment that slices things paper thin giving amazing results
as far as presentation is concerned It will allow you to turn things such
as beets (beetroot) into thin slices for beautiful ravioli The best
part is that its QUICK to use and its very low in costs Ive found
that the most expensive ones arent always as good as the
cheaper ones too
So you dont always get what you pay for here
I like to use use the Joyce Chen mandoline or any of the ones you can find online
(including eBay) that are a similar style

3 A Turning Slicer (Spirali)
A good turning slicer will make really nice long noodles or
spaghetti out of vegetables such as zucchini (courgette)
jicama parsnip and carrots Its also another really quick
piece of equipment to use giving you impressive-looking
food with very little effort or skill required
Again Ive found that the more expensive turning slicers you find in restaurants arent
as good as the home versions I also dont like the top loading spiralisers as they give
pasta strands that are too thin ending mushy and soggy The brand I like is the Spriali
found online
4 A High-Speed Blender
The staple high-speed blender for the raw foodist is the Vita-
Mix Another good alternative is the Blendtech which I havent
got much experience of but people I know who do have them
swear by them But do you really need one I mean they are a
big investment so you want to know if its worth it right
The Vita-Mix is one of those peices of equipment I use everyday
I really does have the potential to change things for you Its so easy to whip up a
green smoothie by blending some spinach mango lemon juice and a little pure
water Just being able to do that and know youll feel amazing after drinking it can be
a life-saver
Its also amazing for turning nuts into cream giving you so many options as far as
making sauces and dips is concerned If you can stretch to a Vita-Mix they really are
worth it
5 A Nut Milk Bag
Nut milk bags are great for making creamy nut milk All you have to
do is blend up 3 cups of water and 1 cup of almond or brazil nuts
that have been soaked for 4 hours then pour it into the nut milk bagand squeeze
Youll end up with a bag full of nut pulp that can be used in other
recipes and a glass of beautiful nut milk that can be sweetened up and made into
milkshakes amongst other things

6 A Food Processor
A food processor is used for things that are thicker than would be
appropriate for the Vita-Mix Things such as breads pates and cracker
mixes are all great for the food processor
This is one of those items that you get what you pay for I used a
cheaper model for years and it lasted me really well but they I moved
up to the Cuisinart which is more expensive but also a really nice piece
of kit to use on a daily basis
A lot of people have had great success just using a very cheap hand blender which is
also great for traveling
7 A Dehydrator
Another one of those pieces of equipment I get asked
about ALOT You dont have to a dehydrator but it does
give you an extra dimension to what you do Youll be able
to create crackers breads lots more desserts
macaroonsthe list goes on
The Excalibur dehydrator is pretty much the staple dehydrator amongst raw foodies
but I really like using the TSM brand (pictured) It looks much nicer in the kitchen is
quieter than the Excalibur and is generally more pleasant to use
I would advise buying a cheap probe thermometer with it though as the temperature
markings arent too specific but using a thermometer in the whole provided on the
front door of the TSM unit you can easily keep an accurate temperature
Remember you dont have to run out and buy all this stuff straight away Take your
time with it work out what resources you have and really get to know one piece of
equipment before moving on to the next All the most fantastic equipment in the
world is no good if it just sits in a cupboard and doesnt get used -)

Mix all Red Pepper sauce ingredients in a Vita Mix orblender until smooth (blender is ok for this at the mixture is
saucier -) than the cheese) Again you may need to add waterto get a sauce consistency

Buckwheat Bread
MAKES 18 lsquoSLICESrsquo
frac12 cup olive oil1frac12 cups sun dried tomatoes soaked 1 hour3 cups sprouted buckwheat (2frac12 cups dry amp unsprouted)1frac12 cups flax meal (ground flax seed)3frac12 cups peeled zucchini roughly chopped2 apples cored and roughly chopped3 tablespoons lemon juice2 avocados1 large onionfrac12 cup minced parsley
In a processor grind the olive oil sun dried toms (removedfrom the soak water) sprouted buckwheat courgette applelemon juice avocados onion and herbs until thoroughly mixed
In a bowl mix the batter with the flax meal by hand Thereason you do this separately (not in the processor) is that youare likely to have too much mixture for the size if the processorat this point and when you add the flax meal it will becomequite heavy and sticky and overwork your machine
When mixed process the whole batter in the machineagain in small batches to achieve a light fluffy texture
Divide the mixture in 2 and place on Paraflexx sheets on
dehydrator trays
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly to all 4 sides andcorners of the Paraflexx sheet If mixture is too sticky you canwet the spatula to make things easier With a knife score thewhole thing into 9 squares
Dehydrate for 2 hours and then remove the Paraflexxsheets by placing another dehydrator tray and mesh on top andinvert so that your original sheet of bread is upside down Thatwill allow you to peel the Paralexx sheet off and continue todehydrate the underside of the bread
Dehydrate for approx 8 hours more (do this overnight soyoursquore not tempted to eat it before itrsquos ready) or until breadfeels light in your hand If the pieces donrsquot fully come apartwhere you scored use a knife to cut them

Having healed himself from acne Russell quickly got excited about
the vibrancy and creativity of raw foods and the health benefits they
could bring to others
With a desire to bring it into mainstream awareness in a way that is
fun and modern he set about following his passion at first as a
hobby
Marrying his newfound passion for creating healthy food with his
artistic nature ndash which had been with him as a child through to art
school - he started posting pictures of his food on his blog
Russell discovered techniques and a natural ability to create beautiful raw recipes from widely
available ingredients and started teaching people in his local area
News spread and Russell soon found himself teaching people from all over the UK and even people
from other countries in Europe and the US who would travel to come and be taught by him
Russell has now taught thousands of people about raw food through his classes online courses
DVDs eBooks and at guest instructor appearances
Russellrsquos passion is to show you that far from feeling restricted on a raw food diet you have an
abundance of options whether that being eating raw sandwiches all week or putting on a show-
stopping dinner party for friends

6 A Food Processor
A food processor is used for things that are thicker than would be
appropriate for the Vita-Mix Things such as breads pates and cracker
mixes are all great for the food processor
This is one of those items that you get what you pay for I used a
cheaper model for years and it lasted me really well but they I moved
up to the Cuisinart which is more expensive but also a really nice piece
of kit to use on a daily basis
A lot of people have had great success just using a very cheap hand blender which is
also great for traveling
7 A Dehydrator
Another one of those pieces of equipment I get asked
about ALOT You dont have to a dehydrator but it does
give you an extra dimension to what you do Youll be able
to create crackers breads lots more desserts
macaroonsthe list goes on
The Excalibur dehydrator is pretty much the staple dehydrator amongst raw foodies
but I really like using the TSM brand (pictured) It looks much nicer in the kitchen is
quieter than the Excalibur and is generally more pleasant to use
I would advise buying a cheap probe thermometer with it though as the temperature
markings arent too specific but using a thermometer in the whole provided on the
front door of the TSM unit you can easily keep an accurate temperature
Remember you dont have to run out and buy all this stuff straight away Take your
time with it work out what resources you have and really get to know one piece of
equipment before moving on to the next All the most fantastic equipment in the
world is no good if it just sits in a cupboard and doesnt get used -)

When mixed process the whole batter in the machineagain in small batches to achieve a light fluffy texture
Divide the mixture in 2 and place on Paraflexx sheets on
dehydrator trays
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly to all 4 sides andcorners of the Paraflexx sheet If mixture is too sticky you canwet the spatula to make things easier With a knife score thewhole thing into 9 squares
Dehydrate for 2 hours and then remove the Paraflexxsheets by placing another dehydrator tray and mesh on top andinvert so that your original sheet of bread is upside down Thatwill allow you to peel the Paralexx sheet off and continue todehydrate the underside of the bread
Dehydrate for approx 8 hours more (do this overnight soyoursquore not tempted to eat it before itrsquos ready) or until breadfeels light in your hand If the pieces donrsquot fully come apartwhere you scored use a knife to cut them

the raw chef
Having healed himself from acne Russell quickly got excited about
the vibrancy and creativity of raw foods and the health benefits they
could bring to others
With a desire to bring it into mainstream awareness in a way that is
fun and modern he set about following his passion at first as a
hobby
Marrying his newfound passion for creating healthy food with his
artistic nature ndash which had been with him as a child through to art
school - he started posting pictures of his food on his blog
Russell discovered techniques and a natural ability to create beautiful raw recipes from widely
available ingredients and started teaching people in his local area
News spread and Russell soon found himself teaching people from all over the UK and even people
from other countries in Europe and the US who would travel to come and be taught by him
Russell has now taught thousands of people about raw food through his classes online courses
DVDs eBooks and at guest instructor appearances
Russellrsquos passion is to show you that far from feeling restricted on a raw food diet you have an
abundance of options whether that being eating raw sandwiches all week or putting on a show-
