Living Rawesome Day #10 Potato Salad Dressing pg. 84 everyday raw
Today has been a very long day. I started my day at 5am. I had to turn in my homework for Economics. Only one week left:) Woo Hoo. I am almost done, then I start Anatomy and Chemistry. The fun classes:) I worked for 6 hours at Rutabaga’s. I made 6 raw vegan yummy pies (2 white chocolate, 2 chocolate, and 2 strawberry cheesecakes). I love my job. Then I went to a friends house to learn to make a new bracelet. She was so sweet to invite me over and teach me a flat peyote “hump” bracelet. I will post pictures when I make one myself. She spent several hours with me. I told her we will barter. I will make her a raw keylime pie. She always buys them at the store when I make them. We haven’t had any ripe avocados so I haven’t made any. Jason bought avocados tonight for the potato salad, so I will use one for her pie.
Unfortunately, the avos are not ripe anywhere. I wanted to make the potato salad tonight, but had to settle for just the dressing. I need to find ripe avocados, so I will make the salad tomorrow. The dressing is very good. I think it will taste great with carrot sticks. Yummy!! It is a tahini base. Unfortunately, the tahini is not raw. We haven’t been able to order any raw for a long time. Maranatha and Arrowhead Mills discontinued it. Possibly from salmonella poisoning. That may be rumor, I really want to email the company. In order for me to have truly raw tahini I will have to make it or order it online.
The ingredients include: tahini, lemon juice, cumin, water, fresh parsley, nama shoyu (I replaced with braggs liquid aminos), agave, salt and of course chili powder. I am beginning to think that Matthew Kenney should have his face on all chili powder bottles. He uses chili powder in almost all the recipes I have made so far. He is really making me appreciate chili powder. I really never used it that much, but I have a feeling that I will be using it alot more for the next year. I was thinking today…”Does he use chili powder in his desserts?” I bet there are a few of them. He is a genius, I am no way putting his recipes down, like I said, I really appreciate chili powder now. I am going away next weekend to St. Augustine, so I will be going downtown to the Old Florida Spice Trader to buy chili powder:) I hope there are different varieties available. This was a very simple recipe. Only took 5 minutes.
