This week I watched the culinary class by Martine Lussier. Her class was on how to make Almond Mila Muffins. I learned so much from her. I really am excited to try this recipe on my own. The muffins looked so soft and moist- like a baked muffin but this was a raw muffin! I can’t tell you how fun it is to sit in on these classes. These are 12 of the world’s top living chefs and I am learning from them how to make my raw food diet more vibrant and exciting!
This week I also watched a video by Chef Colleen Cackowski. In her class she teaches how to make her award winning low glycemic chocolate covered almond butter cup. I learned about tempering raw chocolate which is something I have totally been wanting to learn. She also teaches on low glycemic sweeteners which is something that I feel is very important. There are a lot of people out there who are following a low glycemic diet but I think it is important that everyone include some low glycemic recipes into their diets.
One of the things that I love about the classes is that Cherie Soria is the assistant and asks great questions. I hope to someday take the raw chef course at Living Light Culinary Institute. Cherie has put together an amazing staff of teachers for the institute and she has done the same for these culinary classes.
