I spelled “watch” incorrectly. An editor, such as yourself, would pick up on that. I was an editor in a previous life.

I just got a Spiral Slicer. My zucchini came out somewhat wet and short. Not the beautiful-looking pasta that you got. I even weatched youtube videos! What setting did you have your slicer? Going to try the pesto for lunch and still enjoy the zucchini pasta.

I am all about quick and simple. This sounds and looks fab. I betcha it would be even tastier if left to marinate a bit. Mmmm.

Need to bring something to share with the Hungarians on Mother’s Day. This looks like a lovely “pasta salad.” [I never utter the words "raw food" around them and they devour whatever I prepare. Ignorance is bliss.]

Hi my dear,

I think I’m going to devote a post–or at least a question of the week–to this next week. To be brief, I do think that a food processor and spiralizer make things fun. But of the two, only a processor is really essential. I know it’s a lot of money, but it just enables SO many things: soups, pates, hummus (for non-raw recipes), dressings, chopping, prepping. It’s pretty invaluable to have for any chef, raw or not.

This said, I’m going to make a huge effort to show you lots of non-processor recipes. Do you have a normal blender?
