Guest guest Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Hi Everyone, I am very new to raw foods, and I need lots of support as my husband is about as uncrunchy as you can get (although he is a really wonderful person). I tried making coconut milk/pudding but all I suceeded in making was finely chopped coconut. I was using a Black & Decker Crush Master. Or maybe it just takes a little finesse? All advice is welcome. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hello! I can totally relate--my husband and my son don't eat raw and have no intention of eating raw any time soon, either. I have them eating more veggies and fruit, though, and having green smoothies every morning, so that's something! I also tried to do the pudding and it was awful. I think the secret is the thai coconut--if you look through last weeks discussion, we talked about how different people have a hard time finding them. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Any blender will do because you strain it in a muslin bag when you're done...you're not going to get a smooth nut milk unless you do.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 The more raw fruit and veggies you can get into them, the better. Keep increasing it and sneaking it in where you can. They won't know what hit them!
