Send off from Dan and Vafa– amazing raw food

Dan made cauliflower soup. With almond milk, yellow bell pepper, garlic, and lots of tahini hummos. We could eat pureed vegetable all day.

Dan's Raw Creamy Cauliflower Soup

Creamy Cauliflower Soup

2 cups (500 mL) almond milk (I used almond milk kefir instead, way tastier)

1 medium cauliflower, chopped... Read More

1 red pepper, seeded and chopped

1/2 avocado, peeled and seeded (I used a whole one)

Juice of 1 lemon

2 tablespoons (25 mL) raw tahini (I used about a quarter cup of hummus instead)

2 tablespoons (25 mL) unpasteurized miso (I used Braggs here instead, way better)

1/2 jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced

2 cloves garlic

Spicy concoction of all the vegetables that had to be cooked

OK, not all the vegetables. I put in two point one hot peppers and realized I had better stop, and start adding things to soak up the capsaicin.

Everything chopped on the big wooden cutting board with the big excellent knife that Dan and Shannon bought me for my birthday.

Carrots, baby small ones left and larger baby ones sliced. Not many carrots, really.

Cauliflower and Coconut Milk Curry

Rich is bringing lamb, spinach, and broccoli. Just needs olive oil and spices. We'll see what more we can also do.

To start, roasting broccoli and sweet potatoes and doing the sundried tomato walnut fantastic garnish or whatever.

Some sort of coconut milk curry:

bamboo shoots?

and a stir fry with:
zucchini
olives

My plan on the curry, modify Indian Coconut Curried Vegetables:

Ingredients:

Curry Powder

This is a historical curry powder recipe from "The Great A & P Tea Co., New York, N. Y. Distribution" branded as "Ann Page". The tin looks like it is from the 1930s to the 1950s, though is probably more recent. I hope. It was still usable when I finished it a week or so ago. I have no idea how it stayed around so long:

Turmeric
Coriander
Cumin
Black Pepper
Fenugreek
Ginger
Celery
Cloves
Red Pepper
Chillies
Mace
Garlic

Thai, Korean... ok give up and do random ben stirfry

This came out disastrously. I think it was an extremely bitter onion.

http://www.recipezaar.com/Thai-Pineapple-Fried-Rice-Pad-Kao-Saparod-3808...

An allegedly vidalia onion, giant and terribly bitter, made worse I think by putting all the ingredients in a food processor that made a mush rather than even finely chopped, made this unrecoverable, even after adding sugar and wine (Manda says wine is acid and increases bitterness).

***

This didn't come out badly at all, though I forgot to even do the sesame seeds

Korean Soybeans
http://www.fatfreevegan.com/soy/996.shtml

Bionico - Mexican fruit salad

Made this for Andrea just before she left.

Did a recipe which is a mix between

http://igetspoiled.blogspot.com/2007/07/i-have-recipe-for-mexican-bionic...

(I plan to use coconut milk instead of condensed milk, since it calls for coconut anyway!)

and the part of this recipe involving a Mexican Crema substitute made with raw (but then boiled) cashews:

Carrot Ginger Solid Soup with spicy Eggplant and Potato

Based on this recipe for Creamy Carrot Ginger Soup, I took some liberties and skipped a part I didn't have ingredients for so refer back to the original recipe to make something resembling soup.

I threw everything into a food processor and it worked pretty well:

3 large carrots
1 onion
2 celery stalks
several pieces of fresh ginger, maybe 5-7 ounces worth
about 1 cup vegetable broth
a lot of cumin powder, probably more than the quarter teaspoon called for
