What I love most about a juice detox is the crazy amount of extra energy it gives to me. Well, the first two days I tend to feel a bit cold (time to have a cup of hot tea or water) and I find it difficult to see someone in my kitchen preparing seducing delicacies….grrrr. That’s the reason why I decided to substitute at least one juice a day for a bowl of soup. All […]
Sometimes it’s so easy to make my family happy. For example with an unexpected and beautiful dessert. A few sheets of puff pastry and enough apple slices to cover the bottom of a baking dish. Apricot jam to be brushed onto the tart while it’s still hot. That’s it. (Although I have to admit that a leftover of sirupy mirabelle liqueur in my fridge came perfectly well to marinate the apple slices. ) If you […]

Lately I discovered Russell James, England’s leading raw chef. I browsed through his food blog and watched a couple of his videos. He made me curious. What would be hiding behind his “top 10 most-loved raw recipes”? I must confess, until now raw cuisine hadn’t convinced me: too fat, too sweet, too many dates and soaked cashews. “Amazing recipe n°8”, however, caught my immediate attention. The result? Absolutely delicious! mexican tomato soup (slightly adapted) 1 cup ripe […]
Jason Vale’s Minty Sunshine, Tahini Beaney, and Veggie Power, all freshly juiced and blended! Except for the pink intruder. I bought it because I wanted the little glass bottle, perfect for take-away…. Nevertheless in comparison to our fresh juices it was the perfect proof that the difference fresh versus pasteurized is enormous. Minty Sunshine 2 oranges 3 carrots 1-2 cm chunk root ginger 4 sprigs fresh mint a small handful ice cubes Juice all ingredients. Pour […]
Since I learned how to make almond milk I use it to make smoothies, to put it into my chai, for cooking and baking and to soak my overnight muesli in. The taste is light and crisp and the texture is amazingly creamy. From a health perspective it’s low in fat and calories but high in antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids. It contains vitamins and minerals such as copper, zinc, iron, magnesium, manganese, calcium, phosphorus, […]
