Recently, its been my pleasure to come accross a few raw food 'cook'books. Cook is in commas because its not usually about cooking, more about preperation. There are numerous reasons to bring raw and living foods into your diet, many of which I have covered here.
I'm particularly fond of Natasha's Living foods and the servants of love book Raw in a Cold Climate as both are based in Ireland and are as such adapted to the Irish climate.
Raw Food for Everyone is another one I got recently, this one from the States. Its written by a raw food convert, Alissa Cohen, who found raw food helped her become healthy, having previously had numerous compalints.
The personal story is well written and engaging, and she is quite convincing about the reasons to go raw, from a health perspective. Her restaurant background is also a boon for the book - plenty of raw foodies are into giving classes and the like, but as she has had to get (paying) bums on seats - a different proposition entirely.
Packed full of recipes, the book is also packed full of short and simple recipes, so you can get started on your raw food journey quickly and easily. Only available on Amazon this side of the pond, its well worth checking out.
As is this little ditty (long term readers of this blog will have seen this before!)
