Book Reviews of Fresh: The Ultimate Live-Food Cookbook

Book Review: Interesting lifestyle cookbook...
Summary: 4 Stars

I got this book thinking it would help me use the fresh food that I find in our local farmers markets in a more delicious way.

But this book is about eating all of your foods uncooked (foods can be dried, blended, chopped, etc...) and all of the health benefits that follow when people do so. It was certainly very inspirational and interesting, but I am not ready to convert to the raw food lifestyle, in spite of the beautiful photographs and interesting recipes.

If you are considering a raw food life style, or want to learn more about it, this would be a very good book. If you are looking for ways to prepare fresh farmers market foods, ways that might involve heat, you will need to look elsewhere.

Summary of Fresh: The Ultimate Live-Food Cookbook

Cookbooks need not-indeed, should not-involve cooking, say the authors of this authoritative, beautifully illustrated book. And they should know. Sergei and Vayla Boutenko bring fifteen years' experience to this collection of scrumptious, sophisticated recipes and comprehensive guide to the raw life.

Fresh covers the whole range of recipes, including savory dishes, desserts, fermented foods, drinks, and wild foods. Techniques common to the recipes are introduced and clearly explained, including an inventory of uncommon fruits and how to handle and prepare them, as well as an immersion into the five basic flavors and the herbs, fruits, vegetables, and grains that help chefs bring out each flavor best. The authors introduce the three stages of adaptation to this lifestyle and provide a concise review of minimal equipment requirements and ideal appliance additions for the well-stocked raw kitchen.
