Entertaining in the Raw Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I own both of Matthew Kenney's other raw food books and love them both (especially "Everyday Raw") so I didn't hesitate to purchase this one when it came out. It's way better than I imagined, he has taken raw foods to new dimensions. Nothing else like it is out there, he is truly a genius when it comes to food. This is not a book for a beginner as it assumes you know most of the basics. If you are new to this style of food preparation, I would purchase a basic book first, or purchase one in addition to this book. If you're already familiar with basics like dehydrating and sprouting nuts, then don't hesitate!
Most of the recipes take some time to prepare, however the results are spectacular and will impress anyone and everyone. Some of the recipes are quick and easy, and are still very special, but the more advanced ones are just too intriguing to pass up. The recipe for "Roasted Sweet Pepper Soup" alone is worth the price of the book. The book is filled with great breads, ethnic foods, deserts, and everything in between. A few of the recipes use hard to find ingredients, but most of the recipes use readily available foods. My only complaint with the book is that instead of the more familiar chapters cookbooks usually have, the book is organized into seven areas of interest such as "Contemporary, Inspiration, and Spice". I would prefer to be able to go to one chapter and browse all appetizers, or another chapter for soups, etc. Buy it and Enjoy it!!!
