      • All spoon measurements are level unless otherwise specified.

      • When a recipe calls for the grated zest of citrus fruit, buy unwaxed fruit and wash well before using. If you can only find treated fruit, scrub well in warm soapy water before using.

      introduction

      in the raw

      I spent most of my childhood on my grandparents’ farm surrounded by fresh, organic food. My fondest memories are of making our own butter and cheese – all unpasteurized – and baking bread. These early experiences became a strong foundation for my interest in health and vitality. Later, I graduated in law and worked for a financial company, but after a while I made the decision to leave the job and move to London to transform my life. Shortly after arriving, I started planning a business that would promote health and allow me to devote my time to my true passions: food and working with colours, flavours, textures and shapes.

      I founded Raw Fairies, the UK’s first raw-food delivery service. We provide home- and office-delivered diet and cleansing detox programmes that are unique, delicious and effective. Clients can order daily drinks and meals that are all free from meat, fish, dairy, wheat, gluten and processed sugar, and generally low GI. By using fresh, organic, plant-based ingredients we provide a diet that is high in nutrients but also low in calories.

      People come to us for many different reasons. Generally, they want us to help them cleanse their bodies and lose weight quickly, or they would like to improve and maintain their daily wellbeing. Most of our clients enjoy feeling more energetic, revitalized, brighter and lighter.

      By using this book, you should be inspired to introduce raw food into your life and see that it can be done easily, with delicious and surprisingly satisfying results. Hopefully, you will soon find that you can create a complete meal without once using a stove or oven! Imagine sitting down to the meal pictured opposite – Green ‘Pad Thai’ (page 87), Green Veggie Juice (page 27) and Pecan Cookies (page 136) – and feeling better than ever because your body and mind are being treated to the best that natural food has to offer.

      raw benefits

      The raw-food diet is based on the belief that the most healthful food for the body is uncooked and not heated above around 48˚C/118˚F, in order to preserve the enzymes. Enzymes are the life force of food: they are responsible for every metabolic action in the body; they are the catalysts that enable cells to work and chemical reactions to happen without themselves being consumed in the process. Every food contains the perfect mix of enzymes necessary for the body to digest it completely, but cooking above 48˚C/118˚F destroys these enzymes, forcing our bodies to generate their own. Our body cannot produce the same quality of enzymes as are found naturally, therefore we can’t always digest the food properly. Cooking above 48˚C/118˚F can also kill certain vitamins, such as Vitamin C and folic acid.

      A raw-food diet is composed of the purest wholesome ingredients which are unprocessed, unrefined, without synthetic flavourings and preservatives, and because of that, they break down slowly and feed your body with sustained energy.

      Raw food can be prepared by chopping, blending, slicing, shredding, dehydrating or juicing, and some of these processes might require advanced planning, for example, nuts and grains might need to be soaked, some seeds are best eaten sprouted, and some dishes need to be dehydrated for several hours.

      There are many reasons to include more fresh, raw foods in your diet, no matter what your current starting point. These are just some of the reasons.
