andesuma Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Is there such thing as raw salad dressing? I know people can make it themselves, but i'm talking about stuff you can buy in a jar? It's MUCH better, easier, and cheaper just to make it at home... olive oilgarlic or gingerlemon or lime juiceagave nectar &/or chosen sweetnerdash of celtic sea salt you can also blend in some greens, like cilantro or parsley.Make as much as you want, it will last a week in the frige. There are some fabulous recipes all over the web for 'at home'raw dressings, I really like Jeremy A. Safron's book "The Raw Truth".A LOT of helpful, delicious, simple recipes. Also, just massaging avocado into the salad greens with your hands ismy personal favorite method... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcina Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 I'mma make my own salad dressing right after I'm done my yummy papaya poppy seed dressing hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Its nearly impossible to find anything raw in a jar due to govt. regulations regarding transporting non-perishable foods. I wouldn't care if something was raw though...not if you don't mind it being in a jar for months before it even makes it in a store. A jarred raw food is no different than something thats been deep fried but it was done right in front of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couture547 Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 yep probably true. That's why i'm trying to move away from all packaged foods that claim to be raw and do only fresh produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RawKev Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 haha Tahiti is a place Tashie! Tahini is the food! But yes, tahini and lemon is a great raw dressing. I've been blending tomatoes and a little mango lately and pouring that over mixed greens. Sooo yummy. I added a teaspoon of hempseeds in the blender with the toms and mango the other night and it made it into a creamier style dressing. I guess you could use avocado or sunflower seeds instead too. Sometimes I just like to blend a whole bunch of veggies together and pour it on salads(more veggies lol) I start with tomatoes for the water content, some carrots to thicken it up and add a little natural sweetness, some celery for a little sodium, and some fresh chopped basil, parsley, or dried dulse flakes.

Couture547 Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 I eat probably around 5000 calories a day on most days and if i had the funds i'd eat alot more. I have a crazy appitite, so it's very important i eat a raw food diet or i'd get really fat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
