Raw Juice Pulp Crackers
By Stanka Vukelić Photo: Stanka Vukelić Raw Juice Pulp Crackers We always enjoy lots of fresh juices here, mostly made from organic fruits and vegetables, and as a result there’s a whole lot of pulp, which, instead of throwing it away, can be used as an ingredient for excellent crackers. The pulp is still a great source for fiber and other nutrients, so why not use it for raw crackers?! I usually collect juice pulp over the course of a couple of days, and store it in the fridge. These crackers are so simple. And, the added flavour options are endless. In this recipe, I use pulp from Apple Carrot Juice. The crackers can be used in various ways. We use it for sandwiches, vegetable spreads (as red pepper spread), or for various nut spreads. Raw Juice Pulp...

Raw Sweet Potato Chips
By Stanka Vukelić Photo: Stanka Vukelić Raw Sweet Potato Chips For this recipe, I accidentally bought red sweet potatoes which I used because nothing else was available. Usually I use white sweet potatoes, which perhaps aren’t as sweet as other sweet potatoes, but much tastier because of their fluffier consistency and more delicate flavor. Red and white sweet potatoes are hard to distinguish; you’ll probably have to check with the seller which one it is. The best dips for sweet potato chips are Ajvar or Raw Ketchup. Enjoy. Raw recipe: Sweet Potato Chips Preparation time: 10 min. Let it sit for: 60 min. or overnight Dehydration: 8-12 hours Ingredients for 2 people : 3 big white sweet potatoes 5 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil 5 tablespoons of tamari soy sauce 1-3 teaspoons of red pepper...

Making a raw dough from pumpkin
By Stanka Vukelić Photo: Stanka Vukelić Raw dough for pizza or bread Many raw pizza and bread recipes, while delicious, are very heavy because of the nuts that are usually being used to make it. This recipe is devoid of any nuts whatsoever! The dough is light on the stomach, tasty, and suitable for everyday consumption. It’s made of winter pumpkin and sprouted buckwheat. Pumpkins vary greatly in shape, size, and colour. The fruit is one of the most widely grown vegetables. Buckwheat, regardless of its name, is not a cereal. It is a fruit seed that is related to rhubarb and sorrel, making it a suitable substitute for grains for people who are sensitive to wheat or other grains that contain gluten proteins. The bread can be used in various ways. We use it for sandwiches, vegetable spreads...
