• I haven’t had any gel form on my soaked cashews. Although, I don’t think cashews have any thickening power. For the yoghurt recipe. you could use a bit of irish moss to get it thicker. Or just hardly add any water. The irish moss makes it gel-like. …

• Are you talking about the eggplant bacon or real meat bacon? If it is the eggplant bacon and it is too chewy than you made it too thick. It has to be really thin to turn out crispy.

• Nope, I don’t think so. You can soak during the day if you want. Just overnight is easy time going by I guess. :) That would be interesting if the moon did do something to the almonds though! If anyone knows any differently let us know! I normally p…

• So are the garbanzo beans at WF not raw then? I don’t normally use them but I thought I might give it one more go to try it in a hummus. Normally they turn out so bitter after soaking.

• I use this recipe to make my tahini – turns out great! http://www.goneraw.com/recipes/1419-Raw-Tahini- If you want to buy your tahini, Artisana makes a raw one that is really good. Not too expensive either (around 8$ for a 16 oz jar)

• The Excalibur is fine too but my bf (who is sort of an expert on dehydrators – he is designing a new type of one himself) said that the wattage on the Good4U is like that of the SausageMaker. The SausageMaker is more powerful than the Excalibur. If …

• Yes, the Ronco’s are NOT a good deal (well they are cheap but that is about it). Yes, you need a fan in your dehydrator for doing raw things. Hate to say it but you will have to spend at least $100 on a good dehydrator for raw. They have those new G…

• stevio – Thanks! Ah, that is what that is called the nasal valves! Didn’t know that. Yeah, mine are soft and sort of “collaspable” Thanks for the suggestion on the breathe right strips. I guess those would help keep the nose as opne as possible. :)
