Date: May 13, 2011 07:40AM At the moment we have an abundant supply of mangoes and sapote - very cheap ....we are eating them plain, and also making a smoothie with mango, sapote and a bit of vanilla extract which is really good.
But would like any other ideas for good recipes for either of them - I have thought of some kind of mango salad dressing but no idea how to make it? Thank you for any ideas... Re: mango and sapote recipes anyone??

Re: Any good recipes for raw salad dressing [www.rawfoodsupport.com] Posted by: katrink () Date: August 05, 2009 03:22PM Today recipes were salad dressings from our raw food instructor. There isn't really a recipe but more a listing of items he uses to make dressings and some combos of them. He uses 5 ingredient groups for creating his salad dressings. Groups A, B, & C are the main ingredients. D & E are items added depending on mood or salad. He also likes to add water to most dressings to allow for the use of less oil and to thin out the nut butters and blend the seeds. Always add the acids (C) last because that will make the dressings thicker and creamier. (A) Oils/Fats- Olive oil, Flax oil, Coconut oil, Nut butters, Tahini, Sesame seeds, Sunflower seeds, Pumpkins seeds, Pinenuts, Almonds, Cashews, Macadamia nuts, Avocado (B ) Salts - Celtic Sea salt, Crystal salts, Nama Shoyu, Miso ,Sea vegetables (C) Acids - Lemon, Lime, Orange, Grapefruit, Tomato, Sauerkraut, Apple Cider Vinegar (D) Sweets - Dates, Figs, Dried Fruit, Honey, Orange, Berries, Papaya, Mangos (E) Herbs & Spices - Garlic, Ginger, Onion, Chili, Peppers, Cayenne, Basil, Oregano, Thyme, Dill, Mint, Curry, Sun Dried tomatoes These dressings are all made in a blender. Here are some combinations that can be made but by all means make up your own and be sure to write down the amounts and ingredients as you make them. The first 3 on the list are the ones he demonstrated today, I will also list the ingredients of the salads he used them on. Basic Tahini - Water, Tahini, Nama Shoyu, Lemon juice, Garlic (this was served on baby spinach and onion salad) Spicy Thai - Olive oil, Almond butter, Nama shoyu, lime juice, honey, ginger, garlic and thai pepper (this was served on cabbage, bok choy, raisins, coconut and scallions) Date dressing - Water, olive oil, miso, lemon juice, dates and garlic (this was served on a mixture of baby greens) Creamy Italian - Water, macadamia nuts, celtic salt, apple cider vinegar, garlic, basil and oregano Tropical Vinagrette - Flax oil, celtic salt, apple cider vinegar, mangos, papaya, mint and garlic Sun Dried Dream - Cashews, celtic salt, grapefruit juice, apple cider vinegar and sun dried tomatoes Ageless - Water, sesame seeds, miso, sauerkraut, garlic Avo Dressing Avocado, celtic salt and lemon juice Curry Cream - Tahini, celtic salt, orange juice, ginger and curry . These are just a few examples but be creative and make your own combos. Just be sure to blend until the are creamy because they will stick to the greens better and you won't be left with that puddle of dressing in the bottom of the bowl when you are finished eating. Oops I also forgot to add if you are using nuts or seeds toss them in with the oil or water before adding any other ingredients to allow them to be blended with out any chunks in the dressing, you can also toss whole garlic cloves in with the oil or water and save yourself having to mince them too. ...Jodi, the banana eating buddhist Edited 2 time(s).

Date: May 17, 2011 05:39AM Thank you for the links!! I am always making the same dressing so glad to get new ideas....I suppose just blended nuts / sesame seeds can substitute for the nut butters since they are not available where I live? Re: mango and sapote recipes anyone??

Date: May 18, 2011 02:21AM sorry Merry my answer couldnt have been so vague lol...
when making nut and seed butters .. you can make them in the blender or even a coffee grinder you will have to experiment with the various seeds/nuts if you want a thicker nut butter use an oil to thin out the seeds/nuts .. i use hemp oil cuz its very neutral tasting if you want a thinner nut/seed butter use water or vinegar (if the recipe calls for vinegar anyways) just add the oil / or water a little bit at a time till you get the consistancy you want ...Jodi, the banana eating buddhist Re: mango and sapote recipes anyone??

Date: June 20, 2011 01:29PM You can make a sapote pudding alone or with banana or dates or a smoothie. If it's Mamey (my favorite), besides those options, here's a savory recipe. I've never tried it, but it sounds delicious.
