Raw Foods

Additional Info

via Wikipedia
Raw foodism is a lifestyle promoting the consumption of un-cooked, un-processed, and often organic foods as a large percentage of the diet. Raw foodists typically believe that the greater the percentage of raw food in the diet, the greater the health benefits. Raw foodism or a raw diet is usually equated with raw veganism in which only raw plant foods are eaten, but other raw foodists emphasize raw meat and other raw animal products. Depending on the type of lifestyle and results desired, raw food diets may include a selection of raw fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, eggs, fish, meat, and non-pasteurized/non-homogenized dairy products. Raw foodists can be divided between those that advocate raw vegetarianism or raw veganism, and those that advocate a raw omnivorous diet.

  • Steak Tartare
    Traditionally, steak tartare is loaded with things like capers, onions, whole eggs, anchovies and mustard. Being a minimalist here is my pared down version. My favorite way to enjoy this raw delicacy is atop slices of toasted flatbread.Trim beef of any excess fat.Finely mince the beef and place in a bowl.Add egg yolk, oil and salt. Mix gently then serve.
  • Salsa Verde
    Chop onion and pepper into chunks that the food processor can better handle.  Place all ingredients in the food processor and pulse to your desired consistency.  If you have a smaller food processor like me, you might want to do this in a few batches.  This next step is the hardest part as it involves waiting: place in bowl and cover with saran wrap, then place in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to blend for at least a half an hour.  Just add your favorite tortilla chips or on one of the above-mentioned foods and enjoy.
