NEWS Renegade Water Secrets with Nomi Shannon, raw food chef and author of The Raw Gourmet and a new book, Raw Food Celebrations.
Kevin NEWS: We could talk for hours. I wanted to talk more about “Taste of thought” and your new book and what someone can find in there, because it is a great book. It’s great for people who want to party, who want to do themes and all those sorts of things. And I think that is really missing in the palace of cookbooks raw foods that are no longer there. This is a kind of need. It fits a niche so pretty nice. So why do not you talk about that a little.
Nomi NEWS: All right, thank you. Well, you know, I think the ‘first celebrations Food is the first book specifically for the festival. And what we did, Sheryl and I have broken, so if we wanted a theme did not you get a recipe from here or there, it is decomposed into I do not know how many themes, seven or eight – Italian, Thai… she does because she Thailand and her husband have been many times to Thailand and the food is incredible. She did stuff I never heard of, as [illegible] and stuff like that. And delicious soup of coconut and everything. brunch , buffet, cocktail, if you just want to have a group of people over and just sort of have dousers and excluding drinks. You know, we have a few drinks in there Nice. They have no alcohol in them, but you could put alcohol in them, if you wanted.
And what we have is that we have a schedule, so it’s only three weeks before the dehydration of the parties, cut the red peppers and dehydrate them, because they’ll keep forever, and then you throw or throw them on top of soup. Five days earlier, four days before, three days before the day. And we have tried and succeeded in most categories have the amount of work you do on the day of your event, if you choose to do, there are probably seven to nine recipes in each group, and if you choose to do the whole thing like that, and the event as we structured, so we really sure that you can plan a week in advance and on a Saturday or Sunday have a nice event . Or you can simply
out a recipe at a time.
And we worked very hard to get there. As my lasagna recipe I found some of the sauces last day I did the food preparation at Fort Bragg, I think it was Saturday, and I made three or four sauces less than 45 minutes. And proved that they were all the sauces that go into the lasagne. But we start making them four days ago. And what really takes the time is assembling the lasagna, and you did that day. So it’s a fun book for that, and it is a book for someone starting out, but they do not want to be a concept of energy soup, or for someone who has been making food for a time and I would make a nice family meal or entertain their friends. It is quite structured so that you do not have to be thought to enjoy the food.
Kevin NEWS: That’s great.
Nomi NEWS: and “The Raw Gourmet” is your base, it is the best first book to have, or one of first books, and if you really, literally read from beginning to end, you’ll know everything you need to know to have a raw food kitchen. I do not understand things like, you know, this is a book of food, I do not get deep into things like healing and cleansing and all that because it is a food product. But that’s all you need to know about cooking raw foods. We’re going to actually reproduce, and someone asked a question about Bragg I used in the book. Well, I do use Braggs in the book because I did not know it was a bad product when I ‘ I wrote the book. I would say for now Braggs Nama Shoyu, a soy sauce allegedly first, or maybe a little salt, sea salt or something like that.
And I am thinking maybe these people to my editor can change all the Braggs in the book Nama Shoyu, but it is a great company, then maybe it will not happen.
Kevin NEWS: Yeah. And where can someone go for this book?
Nomi NEWS: The best place to get the book, I mean, yes, you can get to places like Barnes and Noble or food stores and stuff like that, but the best place is to make them from my site, rawgourmet. com, and the reason is that I give a free booklet with each book. With the purchase of “The Raw Gourmet”, you get a booklet of soup, which is from thirteen to fifteen raw soup recipes, and with “Raw Food Celebrations”, you get a book first, but not naked, and c is a pound of salad dressings.
Kevin NEWS: Wow, cool.
NEWS Nomi: And in fact there is no other way to get these brochures. And they are, each book is worth seven dollars. I did it on purpose because you have to pay for shipping and so it’s a gift, and it reduces the cost of shipping more. Then, and then of course you support the author, so it’s always nice too.
Kevin NEWS: That’s great. And it is at www. rawgourmet. com.
< b> Nomi: Right.
Kevin NEWS: Where is that on the site, right on the home page ?
Nomi NEWS: The first thing you see on the left when you look at the products, there will be a photo of “The Raw Gourmet” and “Raw Food Celebrations.” There are also many recipes on my site, Kevin, and there are articles. I wrote a newsletter for about ten years and I’m posting it gradually archives. There are probably eight or ten up there now. There is much information on my site. It is also, when you register there is a free newsletter. This is one of the first things you see. If you have not been to my site, consider subscribing to my free newsletter. Who comes out sometimes once a week, sometimes less. The one I sent today was “how to deal with your doctor your doctor. How to get the answers you need him or her.
Kevin NEWS: Cool.
;
Nomi NEWS: Last week I launched a bunch of recipes called “Summertime Recipes.” Sometimes I put special releases, I’ve always really special well. But when you subscribe to my newsletter, you will also receive a free seven part course called the raw truth. And that receives email for you every two days or two to seven have arrived and it stops. It’s just little bits of information about fats and other things like that, and everyone has a recipe with her.
Kevin NEWS: Oh, everyone has a recipe Oh that’s great. So you can find it when you go to www Nomi. rawgourmet. com, you can go straight and on the side left after this record is a orange box and it says “Newsletter.” You can get seven recipes seven days in a row that you can prepare your family or your friends or yourself .
Nomi NEWS: And if you want to see the latest photo of me and my little son Seth to go, I think it just “Raw Gourmet.” Because I never, I’m just one of the most photogenic person, and the image of me is like ten years so that my daughter sent me a photo and it was not too horrible so I posted last month and it is a picture of me and the baby, which is almost a year now.
Kevin NEWS: That’s great. Well, I want to thank you for the time, I really appreciate. For those of you who are listening, you can go to www. rawgourmet. com and I would recommend you get seven recipes and newsletter Nomi and control permanently out of books. Ann Marie loves her and she will be preparing some of these recipes. Then you’ll be hearing a lot about the health show Renegade. Nomi So I want to thank you for your time.
Nomi NEWS: My pleasure.
