I personally keep those two mixed together with no issues. I mix a

week or two worth in a squirt bottle. Got a recipe out of Botenko's

book.

 

(A) Equal amounts of cider vinegar and olive oil and a shot of

nama-shoyu.

 

I have had great results from using " Black Raspberry " vinegar and

also " Appel Cider " vinegar.

 

I don't mention that much for the " vinegar " police come out and

chastise one for using vinegar. Oh well, that's my story and I

stick by it

 

If I were to actually break down the percentages, the one I use is:

 

45% (apple/raspberry) vinegar.

45% top grade olive oil

10% nama-shoyu

I am new to this lifestyle, so if this doesnt follow a rule I am not aware of,

please forgive me.

 

Here are two of my favorites:

 

1) I dice onions and mix it with chopped cilantro and then splash it with

lemon juice and lime juice. My lil girls have even given up ranch on their

salads.

 

2) A creamy dressing:

1 T Raw Tahini

1 T Ray Cashew Butter

1 T olive oil

2 T water

2 garlic cloves

1 T Braggs

 

I mix the above in my food processor. It is a little spicy from the garlic,

but I love the kick.

 

Hope this helps.

I like tahini mixed with grape juice. I just whiz the grapes in the blender with

a bit of water and add the glunk to the tahini, until I have the

consistency/taste I like. It lasts several days. Good luck. Lane

[Raw Food] Raw salad dressing question

 

 

Any good salad dressing recipies you consider your favorites??

 

I have been using home made salsa, but I cant have that every time. Can

olive oil and cider vinegar be mixed and stored?? I have never made all my own

food before and I dont want to have anything spoil on me....

 

Thanks!

To keep the vinegar police at bay, remember that fresh is always best. Even

before I knew of the raw food lifestyle, I've been making my own salad dressing.

You may want to experiment with the quantities of the below ingredients, but no

matter how much you put in of whichever, it's always yummy:

- the most premium olive oil you can find, either raw or just organic (is

organic cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil considered raw???)

- freshly squeezed lemon juice

- any spicy raw herb (I just use crushed red pepper)

- sometimes I grate fresh ginger root, too

- sometimes I add namashoyu

Other times for a change I substitute olive oil with raw organic extra virgin

coconut oil and fresh lime juice instead of lemon.
