Summary: 2 Stars
My husband and I are transitioning to raw foods. We have read numerous books and were prompted to buy The Raw Gourmet because of the cover and the incredible photos inside. Truly, the pictures are stunning. Unfortunately, the recipes lack that certain something. We made a few, but there were no instructions on exactly how to get the results she got in her pics. In some recipes, the photo didn't even show the same ingredients she lists in the recipe! I returned the book to the health food store after one week. There are better raw food books out there. See my review on Rainbow Green...Book Review: Time consuming
Summary: 3 Stars
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.Book Review: Very Basic, more Everyday than Gourmet . . .
Summary: 2 Stars
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.
