Raw Food Preparation
Raw food preparation involves the selection, handling, and processing of uncooked foods in order to create dishes that maintain their natural nutrients and enzymes. This method of food preparation typically involves soaking, sprouting, dehydrating, blending, and fermenting various fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and grains to enhance their flavors and textures while preserving their health benefits. By avoiding heating above a certain temperature, raw food preparation aims to retain the food's original state and maximize its nutritional value.
