Prepping with Homegrown Raspberries

In Denmark, the authorities keep reminding us to be prepared for emergencies. And I get it — it’s not an easy task when no one really knows what kind of emergencies might come our way. So, we’re told to do a little bit of everything: store water, buy canned food, keep a small battery-powered radio […]

Green Salad with Asparagus and Peas

This time of the year fresh peas and asparagus can be found in the stores. To me this indicate spring. I first tasted this salad at a barbecue party – before I went into raw food – we were sitting there and the smell of grilled meat was so appealing. But then the salad was […]

Nordic Nut Milk

In most raw food recipes found in cooking books and on the internet almond milk is applied in stead of cow milk. Don’t get me wrong, I love almond milk, and drink it often. However, living in Scandinavia, I try to reduce my consumption of nuts that can not be crown in my local environment. […]

Raw Chocolate Mousse

For this awesome chocolate mousse maple syrup is the secret ingredient that makes it taste really good. Other syrups may work fine, but the taste just get very sophisticated using the maple syrup. Further, I use the chocolate powder from Valrhona. 4 ripe and fine avocados, 3-4 spoon of cacao powder, 3-4 spoon of Marple […]

Celeriac salad with apple and cacao-nibs

This dessert-style salad always takes me by surprise — no matter how many times I make it. It’s inspired by a very old Danish countryside recipe that my grandmother would whip up, especially in the autumn when apples were abundant. I’ve given it a raw twist, but it still carries the same cosy feeling of […]

Goji berries and chocolate chunks

The look is not impressive but the taste is yummi. The sugar content is high, so don’t eat them every day 🙂 2 dl almonds, 1/2 dl marple syrup, 2-3 spoon of water, 1/2 dl dried goji berry and 25-40 g dark chocolate (If I can find it use 100% chocolate) Mix almonds, syrup and […]

Jerusalem artichoke salad

This is THE salad with raw Jerusalem artichoke. When raw the Jerusalem artichoke has a mild taste of nuts. The best way to add them to salads is by slicing them thinly. They combine really perfectly with apples, fresh spinach, hazel nuts and lemon. I would advice you to try to find your own ratio […]

Homemade Marzipan

Making your own marzipan for Christmas is actually really easy and making it raw is no problem. 2 dl paranuts, macadamia nuts, or almond without skin, 1-2 spoon of heather honey, ca. 1 spoon of lemon juice (obsitional) and nuts for decoration such as walnuts, hazelnuts or paranuts. You will need some suitable nuts. Normally marzipan […]

Blackcurrant Smoothie

For most frozen berries, something is needed as a sweetener, when used in smoothies. For blackcurrant I think banana is an excellent choice. Banana and blackcurrant goes very well together, for two small or one large cup use 2 dl. frozen blackcurrant, 2 (small) banana, 1 teaspoon honey (optional) and 2 dl. water Add all […]
