Thanks Evita for teaching us the template. I’ve transitioned from vegetarian to vegan a year ago and it has been the best thing ever. Now I am focus more on incorporating raw vegan food . Thanks to your classes, I so look forward to my green smoothie, homemade cashew dressing and salads every day.

@Healthytarian
5 жыл бұрын
Thank you for the feedback. With regards to the use of a blender, most definitely it processes our food, but it is considered a small or minimal type of food processing compared to anything done on an industrial level, when we talk about the negative impacts of processed food. There are minimally and heavily processed foods. There are also natural methods of food processing, like cutting a food or fermenting a food, and industrial methods of food processing that are very destructive in all kinds of physical and chemical ways to our food. We have to keep in mind that anytime we add heat to food, such as in cooking, this is all food processing. In fact, just cutting up an apple or peeling it, can be considered food processing too. Unless a person is going to eat a fully raw food diet and eat the most natural and whole forms of the their food, there is ALWAYS going to be some food processing involved. The key to optimal health and nutrition is to keep our food processing light and minimal in a way that balances with practical considerations in our modern lives. This is where using a blender or using a food processor, or even a little heat to steam our food are all acceptable forms of food processing.

Thank you so much for your great feedback, Mila. If you want to make such sauces, and not use salt, you just make the sauce without the salt. The herbs and spices already provide beautiful flavors and enough flavors that salt does not have to be used. There is no direct replacement for salt. We can just get our tastebuds accustomed to non-salty food and enjoy food's real flavor and use herbs and spices to change flavors based on what we like.

@Healthytarian
3 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your great feedback! With regard to avocado, sure, you can use it as part of many meals, as it is a healthy whole plant food, and provides healthy fats. From chopping it into salads, to making avocado pudding (recipe on channel), or making it into guacamole (recipe on channel), or just eating it "as is", that is up to you. You can even try to make a creamy sauce using avocado, instead of nuts or seeds. With regard to a sweetener, I explain a lot about that in my online whole food, plant-based eating course here: bit.ly/3248GgF and/or my book: www.evitaochel.com/post/healing-prevention-through-nutrition In general, optimally whole food, plant-based eating uses whole food sweeteners, like dates and raisins, or homemade sauces or syrups made of them. For any isolated or processed sweeteners, some are better than others, and I encourage each person to do their own research and use what they feel most comfortable with.

@Healthytarian
Жыл бұрын
You can try, but it won't be the same in terms of making a good creamy sauce of the right consistency. Please be aware that there are many "diets" out there and "fads" that incorrectly steer people away from healthy foods and into unnatural or unhealthy diets. We must eat some fats in our diet for proper organ, tissues, hormonal, and neurological function. Losing weight is easy with plant-based eating without the need to remove healthy fats.

Is vitamix blender necessary to make these sauces or we can make them using other blenders too?
@Healthytarian
4 жыл бұрын
A Vitamix is certainly very helpful and most ideal for all cramy sauces, but you can make most of them in some other blenders too. For example, the Ninja Pro personal blender, as well as the Nutribullet Pro personal blender, are both very cost-effective (around $100) and powerful enough to handle making these sauces very well. As for other blenders, it all depends on how powerful they are, and what kinds of blades they have.

Question... can these sauces be frozen in an ice cube tray??? I’m cooking for one. I grow my own herbs: cilantro, mint, basil, etc. Or would I be better off just freezing the herbs with water and then making my sauces out of frozen cubes??
@Healthytarian
5 жыл бұрын
I don't recommend freezing in this case because things are never as good after. What would be better is to make the sauce in a large batch, once per week, to last you for the week. They are so quick and easy to make and will work much better with fresh herbs. If you are going to freeze your herbs, just freeze them dry, not with any water.

Does long soaking deplete some of the nutrients in the nuts or seeds?
@Healthytarian
2 жыл бұрын
Generally, nuts and seeds are richest in minerals, which are not as prone to water leaching like some vitamins are. The benefits of soaking in general are greater than any possible, minimal nutrient depletion. And I don't recommend stressing about it, as pretty much anything we do to our food, from cutting it to cooking it, depletes some nutrients. The key is to minimally process our food and eat a nutrient-rich diet.

Hello Nicola, it would be about 1 tablespoon for 1 serving, but it is meant to be flexible because what counts as a "serving" for one person does not for another. So you want to make the amount that is right for you, of course, without overdoing the nut or seed butter.

Tahini, which is sesame butter (ground up sesame seeds), as long as you find a pure one without added oils and salt. But really, you can experiment with almost any nut or seed, as I share in the video to find what works for you. Walnuts, almonds, and sunflower seeds, for example, all make some of the best sauces too.

What kind of vitamix do u recommend for a beginner?😊
@Healthytarian
6 жыл бұрын
I have the older Vitamix 5200 and love it, even more so than the new models I had a chance to examine at a store. The older ones are still available as new or refurbished at some stores or online, especially Amazon (amzn.to/2EFKNBh), if you are US-based. The new ones have changed some of the design and functionality on them, and you may be just fine with them too, not having anything to compare to. However, price is a big factor with these units. The older 5200 will be cheaper by a bit than the new models, so that is another plus. The new personal-sized Vitamix is not worth the money, as it is significantly smaller but not significantly cheaper. Beyond the Vitamix, if one's budget is limited, I recommend a beginner get a Nutribullet Pro or a Ninja Pro (1000Watts), which are in the $100 (or less) price range, and will do a very good job for most sauces, like ones in this video, or smoothies - especially if you work with the butter versions of the nuts, as opposed to whole nuts. If however you'd like all the benefits of being able to make larger quantities, having all the power needed to puree down any food, no matter how dry or small, as well as make other foods like hummus, etc., then a full-fledged Vitamix is best. There are also other high-power blenders that have come onto the market since the Vitamix became so popular, but I don't have any personal experience with them to comment on them appropriately.

Healthytarian Thank you for your reply. Being that this sauce is so delicious it is possible to go overboard. What is your limit on how much sauce to top your food bowl? I know fat is important to have in our diet but I am trying to keep my fats on the low side as I have been on a high fat/carb whole foods vegan diet for a long time (not intentionally having it high fat but I ate a lot of tofu, nuts and avocado, not to mention high fat dressings like olive oil and vinegar or nut dressings.) and I am turning a new leaf this year in regards to the fats. My main goal is too reduce the fats. Do you think 2 tablespoons for one of the star meals with the addition of salad in a large bowl would be fine? Is this something you consider when you top the plate with sauce since the rest of the food in the bowl is mainly low fat? I would love to get your thoughts on that and I appreciate in advance your reply.
@Healthytarian
5 жыл бұрын
Hi Dina, it all depends on how many fat-rich foods you eat as part of your daily diet. I generally recommend 1 serving of nuts and 1 serving of seeds per day for the average person. (Kids and active people need more.) A serving is about 2 tablespoons or a small handful or about 1/4 of a cup. So how and when you eat these servings of nuts and seeds is up to you. For example, I myself will eat my seeds as part of my green smoothie normally, and my nuts as part of my creamy sauce for one of my main meals. (Normally I have lemon juice and herbs only on my salads, which often include an avocado, and then the creamy sauce for my STAR meal.) On days that I don't have any creamy sauce, I may eat my nuts as a snack on their own, or as part of a sweet raw vegan treat. So that is the general gist on nuts and seeds, that incorporates these sauces. In addition to that, yes, you can add a small avocado or half of a large one each day, if and when it feels right to you. None of this would be too much fat. What I strongly encourage people who are whole food, plant-based health conscious to leave out are all oils, as these are just empty calories of pure fat and bring the most problems with least benefits. So focus on whole plant foods that have some fats, and use discernment of when and how much is eaten daily based on your health needs.
