Guest guest Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 [Texas] [includes raw recipes] Get fresh and eat in the raw Devotees say uncooked food paves the way to better health By Dai Huynh Jan. 5, 2009, 2:33PM Kristina Carrillo-Bucaram likes it raw. For the 21-year-old, what’s cooking isn’t ingredients but the philosophy of raw food. It’s been four years since the Houston artist switched off her stove for good. Now the only tools she needs to prepare dinner are a sharp knife, a food processor, a high-speed blender and a spiral slicer. She’s among a growing number of “raw foodists.” What they call “living food” is unprocessed, often organic fruits, vegetables, legumes, grains, nuts, seeds and herbs, which cannot be heated above 116 degrees. (Purists such as Carillo-Bucaram even forgo the use of a dehydrator, which dries food with currents of warmed air.)
