I would have given this 4 stars but the dude fills the first half of the book with the worst autobiography possible -- complete with creepy, shirtless yoga poses in fields or on the beach after long, romantic walks presumably.

Oh, one other downside is that you'll need a dehydrator to really nail a lot of the recipes unless you can set your oven at really low temperatures. Jul 10, Jennifer rated it really liked it. Great addition to my growing list of vegan cookbooks!
Jul 25, Laura Howard rated it really liked it. Made several of the recipes and enjoyed them all. Sep 13, Tanner rated it it was ok.
No doubt the book is beautiful and inspiring aside from all the creepy pictures of the author. My first problem was the cost of almost all ingredients. I think he could have made it a little more budget friendly. Next problem was with the lack of details. I was unfamiliar with some of the ingredients and he didn't explain how to use them or where to get them. You learn No doubt the book is beautiful and inspiring aside from all the creepy pictures of the author. Same thing with the agave syrup.
I don't think this guy realizes how much sodium and sugar are in these 2 ingredients. Overall it was a good start and I just use it as a guide. Where did this guy go? He had a beautiful restaurant in Santa Monica that suddenly shut down with no notice or explanation. His website seems to be mostly gone too.

I have made more recipes from this book than any other cookbook, and every single one of those recipes is immensely delicious and ridiculously healthy.
This book is a great entrance into raw foods since the recipes are very clear and not too complicated, and the photos of the food are beautiful plus they help you figure out what this stuff is actually supposed to look like.

Dec 09, Eris added it Shelves: raw-food. Excellent excellent! I totally recommend this for any raw food enthusiast. Amazing if you have the proper tools.
But you should know this already, if you are a raw foodist. Don't attempt these without a food processor, dehydrator, blender, and perhaps a coffee grinder. Also requires a source of Nama Shoyu expensive raw soy sauce.

Suzy brought this to school and I was able to read it in its entirety there's not much text here. Some of the recipes looked enticing - the corn salad, the onion "bread" which serves as a base for most other traditionally dough-centered dishes , certain sauces - but there was a ton of overlap, especially in the dessert section. Also, the chapter "chapter" about eating raw on the road was mighty vague. Jan 02, Pamela rated it it was ok.
Beautiful photos of the food, but too many of the author. If you can't find Thai coconuts, as is my case, then over half the recipes are excluded. I don't have a dehydrator, so there's a bunch more recipes I can't try. And his soups? Besides, I don't have a juicer either. Following a vegan, raw foods diet does not mean you have to give up your favorite delicacies or condemn yourself to a life of celery and carrot sticks.

From imaginative new dishes such as cactus salad, onion bread, and spirulina pie, to tantalizing variations on everything from pizza, tacos, and cookies, to the signature "Big Matt with Cheese," Amsden's mouthwatering recipes feature soups, sauces, salads, appetizers, entrees, and even desserts. More than a cookbook, RAWvolution is the indispensable, all-inclusive guide to the many powerful benefits of raw food.
