I thought I'd share this with the group today. I came up with this
recipe a while back.

Cheers!

i will try a salad dressing using sundried tomatoes also
but i wonder if instead of adding water and dried tomato
just add whole tomatoes
it seems redundant at best
to dry the tomatoes, only to add the water back later
unless you don't have a refrigerator and are nomadic
and have to make do on the trek for a new food source

why use garlic powder instead of garlic
its cheaper, but not that much
unless of course, you need a long term stash because you are hiding in
a basement bomb shelter to avoid one of the avoidable castastrophes
"the powdered garlic mocks the fresh shallots"

there are two types of people
garlic people
and ginger people
[maybe there can be other people, but]
i am a ginger person
sometimes i suck on very small slices

when i want to cut out olive oil
in a salad dressing one day
i find i can substitute a little avocado

thank you for the recipe
please post more
with links to pictures

i was trying to get a recipe for a raw yeast bread
i have been doing some research
i have made more than fifty batches over the last few months
with ultimately depressing results
i have trouble getting it to rise
and i have trouble getting a fluffy consistency

Recipes are just that, a list of ingredients and a way to make
something that a person has come up with. Obviously, it's the choice
of the person using the recipe to do with it what they will.

I made this recipe gearing it for ease of use. That's why sundried
tomatoes vs whole tomates and garlic powder vs whole garlic.

The sundried tomatoes I do buy, but I see using tomates I've
dehydrated myself (hopefully next summer I'll be helping my uncle
plant a garden and will take the excess produce and dehydrate it!
<g>).

Garlic powder is _always_ homemade. I get a head or two of organic
garlic and peel and chop up coarsely then put in a chopper and chop up
fine. I then put in dehydrator and dry at low temp overnight.

As a mostly raw fooder for 16 years, I like to come up with key
recipes like this that are fast and easy. When there is time and
money, I prefer the more natural approach of whole foods vs
dried/dehydrated but this recipe is great when time/money at a
premium.

Re the yeast bread, I've had trouble with bread, period. It's
difficult to get something that doesn't smell of rancidity, something
I'm particularly sensitive to. All bread I've made I can eat straight
out of the dehydrator but not after it's been out ofthe dehydrator
even as little as a couple of hours. That awful fermenty taste has
already set it. So good luck with your bread experiments. I hope you
figure it out to your satisfaction! <g>

Re recipes with links to pictures, well, I haven't gotten that
sophisticated yet, but there are great forums (as you're probably very
well aware, so sorry if I tell you something you already know <g>)
that post great pictures quite often.

The ones I frequent the most are these:

http://www.rawfood.com/cgi-bin/forum/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum&f=2&DaysPrune=1000
and though she's very commercial and someone I don't have consumer
trust (for personal reasons I won't go into), her site does offer good
posts from people with quite a few pictures:
http://www.rawfoodtalk.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=3
not yet a lot of traffic here, but last one on the list is this one:

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Cheers. :oD
