Tonight I went Japanese as result of all the Asian market shopping I did on Thursday in Viet-Town (so there will probably be a lot more Asian vittles to come this week!). I prepared 3 different maki rolls and created the “rice” using Pure Food & Wine’s method of processing jicama and pine nuts [...]

Oshitashi is a simple, classic Japanese spinach “salad” dish that is traditionally prepared by boiling or wilting spinach, squeezing out the water, then rolling it in a bamboo mat like maki rolls before slicing it into bite sized pieces. It is then finished with a mixture of mirin and soy sauce and topped with [...]

This deliciously spicy Neopolitan sauce, named after what I’ll just call “the ladies of the night”, is one of my all-time favorites. I use my homemade slow-roasted Roma tomatoes as the base, which makes this sauce freakin incredible and really blows it out of this world. So does tossing [...]

Nothing’s tastier than a perfectly and properly ripened summer tomato, except taking them and slow roasting or drying them either via conventional oven or dehydrator. I make these all the time when I get good Romas (aka plum) and I warn you, they are addictive. The result, particularly for [...]

You know the world never has enough food porn and I am glad to contribute when possible. Raw or non-raw with recipes or none, I’m going to photo-blog more of the meals I feed myself and family. This was our spread from last night. It rocked.
Imported halloumi is a fantastic [...]
“Julie’s Raw Ambition” was called just that because I had an ambition to incorporate as many raw foods, their beautifully creative culinary executions, and the lifestyle’s philosophies into my own as much as possible for health’s sake. Today, it has been just over 13 months - July 17, 2007, to be exact, since taking on [...]
Last night, my husband and I attended the 5th anniversary celebration of one of my favorite restaurants, and chefs, here in Orlando - Norman’s at the Ritz Carlton, Grand Lakes. I wouldn’t have missed it, and it was an even far better time than I ever expected! Norman is, of course, the award-winning [...]
Well look at this! I have recently been bestowed this glorious award by a couple of my fellow foodie friends - Lauren from GingerIsTheNewPink and Kristen from Kristen’s Raw. Thank you, beautiful ladies….thank you, thank you!
In return I must nominate 7 more blogs, which was a little difficult considering many of my favorites [...]
