Guest guest Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Hi Donna, You asked: " WHAT does one substitute for the soy/msg liquids used in so many raw recipes? " . I use freshly minced ginger (it comes out 1/2 juice, and the other 1/2 in little pieces) and a pinch of raw sea salt (rarely, but it's better than the soy/msg liquids if you're transitioning). I find that the ginger taste is related to the soy/msg liquids taste in that it is used to flavor so many Asian dishes, so it's like you're not missing out on the soy/msy liquids flavorings when you leave them out, as long as the ginger is still there! -Tiffany Lohr Donna wrote: Noelle, LOL, I know, Annie better get her act together!!! The problem is that canola oil is CHEAP and these companies bottom line is profit, not our health. Anyhow, in case anyone else would like this info, I have posted it before but I am so freaken RABID on this subject that I will mention it again: www.msgmyth.com - we all need to be aware exactly how many different names the food companies hide this toxic excitotoxin under. This concerns me especially in the raw food community where so many recipes call for Tamari or Noma Shoyu or Yeast flakes or Braggs liquid poison...I mean, aminos. I am surprised frankly that anyone who is health conscious would eat any of this stuff- but I suspect many people have no idea exactly how toxic msg and all its hidden alias are. Okey dokey, off soapbox. Well actually one more thing- WHAT does one substitute for the soy/msg liquids used in so many raw recipes? Many of them seem to depend on it for flavor and that just shouldn't have to be. Blessings of great health, Getting greener everyday, Donna Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Your welcome, Donna, and may I suggest adding some lime juice to it? That marriage may produce a closer relative taste to replace soy-ish condiments. -Tiffany Donna Masi <TribalFantasyDesigns wrote: <<I use freshly minced ginger (it comes out 1/2 juice, and the other 1/2 in little pieces) and a pinch of raw sea salt (rarely, but it's better than the soy/msg liquids if you're transitioning).
