I'm going to try this raw eggplant Bacon, Why Not recipe

[Guest guest]

Bacon, Why Not

 

1 large eggplant, thinly sliced lengthwise

3/4 c. oil

1 tsp. cayenne

2 Tbl. honey

4 Tbl. Ume Plum Vinegar

 

Marinate for 2 hours. Place on teflex sheets and dehydrate for 9 hours. Turn

bacon over and dehydrate another 9 hours.

 

- from " How We All Went Raw " by Top Raw Men

perfect, just in time to come off my 5 day cleanse. I've started this and

they will be ready for breakfast. or, more likely, a midmorning snack.

:-)

 

The Ume Plum Vinegar appears to be mostly salt. 1 tsp cayenne seems to be

too much, so I reduced this to 3/8 tsp. The 1/8 tsp is the only one that

fits in my cayenne container and 3 just seemed to be enough. :-)

 

Certainly not optimal, but, might be nice for a " treat " . I'll let you

know how it turns out.

Is this recipe supposed to actually taste like bacon?

That would be so cool, but I can't imagine how it would.

out of the house and didn't get it dehydrating when it was ready, so, it

ended up marinating for about 6 hours. So, I won't be eating this until

tomorrow night, or, probably Tuesday. Probably better not to break the

cleanse with this anyway. :-)

 

I'll have to look for " The Top Raw Men " . I haven't been doing much

elaborate food preparation. Mostly eating simple, whole foods, but, for

some foods that I don't like to eat " plain " , such as eggplant and squash,

having a recipie book is quite nice.

A correction... the actual recipe in " How We All Went Raw " calls for 1

teaspoon of ground black pepper, not cayenne. The cayenne was what it said

on a web forum, referenced to the book. But when I checked the actual book,

well, 'twas ground black pepper.

Mine's dehydrating-away too...

Seems an odd item to break a cleanse with... it's high in fat...

 

I didn't taste the vinegar. I noticed though, that it didn't smell like

vinegar. I appreciate your insight on the salt.

By the way, I love this book, by " The Top Raw Men. " The " Sun Dried " (okay,

electrically dehydrated) Tomatoes are phenomonal. I've got two shelves of

them, in addition to the eggplant. The recipes are totally different. Only

thing they've got in common is olive oil.

I've made this many times and people love it! However

I haven't tried it with cayenne.
