2 out of 5 stars Very Basic, more Everyday than Gourmet . . .   September 22, 2008
It's not a bad book and in general the ingredients are readily available, but the recipies are pretty simple and sometimes plain. Not really Gourmet at all. If you already have lots of raw books, this is good to add to your collection, but try some others first if you are just getting started.

Great raw food recipe book. The photos are awesome. A beginner raw foodist will enjoy this book.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Raw Food Resource   August 5, 2008
I am new to raw food. I'm only 1 month in but man I am having one heck of a month.

Everything I have tried from this cookbook has been nutritious, fun and full o' flavor. I am floored by how tasty, light and easy these recipes are...the sunflower seed pate and the mexicali corn salad are heavenly. I have yet to have an unsatisfying meal.

One of the things I enjoy about this book is that it doesn't require tons of (obscure) ingredients to make a great tasting dish.

The book is also full on helpful information regarding what to do and what not to do - food preparation, storage, grains, sprouting, food combining, etc. The thing is most of the information is found within the recipes not in one specific section of the book but that's not a problem.

Wouldn't trade the book for another and will certainly be using it frequently.



3 out of 5 stars Time consuming   July 31, 2008
This seems like a great book, but, very time consuming. Also, I live in the outback and its difficult to find some of the ingredients. One thing that was confusing was on page 200 it explains foods that shouldn't be eaten together, such as oranges and dates...yet, on page 186 there is a recipe for Orange-Date Dessert Bars. Go figure.

The Raw Gourmet

Excellent book. Completely lived up to its reputation. Perhaps the definitive book on the subject of raw food.
