Jennifer goes right to cooking and gives good advices while she is preparing her recipes. The recipes are very easy and delicious, and the only kitchen appliances that you need are a blender and a food processor. Just to make the raw zucchini spaghetti you will need a spiral slicer. Try the raw zucchini spaghetti with marinara sauce...I first bought her book (same title) but seeing her cooking made me really see how easy it is. I sometimes take my notebook to my kitchen and it is like cooking with her! (Just be careful where you put your computer...) hope that she will release some more DVD's soon. cookbook July 18, 2010 William Daniel (St. Cloud, MN USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful Havent had the time to really sit down and read the book, but will do it when time allows. Great for us beginners June 3, 2010 Nutty Mom (GA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful I saw clips of this dvd on YouTube and knew it was going to be perfect for us newbies to the raw food lifestyle. Jennifer Cornbleet comes across with a crisp, friendly, no-nonsense style that keeps you interested and focused on her teaching. She covers breakfast, lunch, dinner, desserts, snacks, smoothies, traveling in the raw, simple kitchen techniques, and appliances that will help you prepare your raw foods. She shows you how to roll California Rolls, chiffonade vegetables, attractively cut veggies and more. You can play each section or you can play all. I bought this video along with the book and I'm glad I did. I'll watch this over and over. It has inspired my daughters and me to strive for raw food eating. Definitely worth the money! Jennifer, please make a video to go with your desserts book! sweet and gentle March 25, 2010 Cosy Zoe 2 out of 2 found this review helpful Jennifer Cornbleet is a sweet and gentle soul and it comes through in her teaching. The video has a home made feel to it, but is not dull, even when she is not talking because you see the actions and feel the effort if any. She approaches various parts of meals but there is only one recipe for each meal, unless you bunch them together for one meal, like she does for lunch with a soup and dip. Having tried some of the recipes at home, I must admit that my taste must be rather different to hers - for instance I don't really like the 'not tuna pate' because it feels too grainy with all those seeds and nuts and the first time I made the mistake of using white onions which were too strong for the dish. The soup, though is good and can be adapted. For those who are not entirely convinced about raw food, she is quite gentle and clearly thinks you can approach it little by little - so she does even suggest you could use normal chocolate in the desert. Unfortunately for me, I think it could be the normal chocolate that makes my migraines worse, but for those who are not bothered with migraines that might be a good idea. One of the ways in which these recipes fall down is that she uses a juicer which is extremely expensive although it can squeeze juice out of green leaves as well. If you happen, like me, to have a normal centrifugal juicer, you cannot get the juice out of kale etc. without the rest of the leaf (that is you have to use a blender). For older people: I also think that these raw food protagonists should know or warn people that raw food can be indigestible by older people. I lost so much weight from not absorbing raw food that I got very tired and lethargic to the point when I lost interest in food altogether and had to go back to cooked. Jennifer does mention that when she is making a kale salad, but in such a mild way that it sounds like a minor inconvenience rather than a major obstacle. Also you can get very cold, and Jennifer says you can heat things like the soup gently, but she might add that you need to dress warmly and have a hot water bottle handy to stay warm. Exercise probably helps too, but we can't all be exercising all the time, especially with little energy. Generally: In my opinion, raw food is a useful addition to any meal and the new techniques and combinations they come up with are interesting and exciting, for the most part. Jennifer's video is well made and gentle and could only have been improved by adding more of her recipes. I also like the tips she gives which are not in her book, like the way she scrunches the kale for the salad. I enjoyed it and watched it several times. A great DVD March 19, 2010 Nikole Brunner 1 out of 1 found this review helpful This is a great DVD for those just starting out with raw foods. Jennifer shows just how easy and fast it is to create raw meals for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. There's also a discussion on how to stay raw when traveling. Jennifer demonstrates juicing, blending, nut milk bags, spiral slicing vegetables and much more. Basic food preparation techniques and kitchen appliances are also discussed. This DVD is well worth the money, and I am highly recommending it for all raw food beginners. Showing reviews 1-5 of 30 1 2 3 4 5 6 Next »
