We just published episode 11 of Ligia’s Kitchen, which will show you how to make a delicious (and quick) raw whipped cream cake with frozen sour cherries. One of the fringe benefits of producing my wife’s cooking show is that I get to eat all the yummy treats she makes. This cake had me licking my fingers. It was delicious, and as you can see from the video, it takes about 5 minutes to make it.

English subtitles are available on YouTube (toggle them on/off with the CC button).

It’s the 10th episode of Ligia’s Kitchen! Our show’s already been viewed over 20,000 times, and the views just keep coming. Considering that it’s in Romanian (not English), and there’s plenty of competition from the American market, I think that’s really good!

This week’s recipe is a raw winter salad with (of course) raw mayonnaise. It’s easy to make, and its ingredients are easy to find during winter in just about any supermarket. Enjoy!

English subtitles available on YouTube (click on the video to go there).

This episode will show you how to make a raw almond cake (with the fruits of your choice) from the pulp of the almond milk. For those who say raw food is expensive, I submit this as proof that it isn’t. If you can make milk and cake from the same basic ingredients, that’s a pretty good deal in anyone’s checkbook.

As usual, English subtitles are provided. Just click through to see the video directly on YouTube, where subtitles will be displayed.

It’s the seventh episode of Ligia’s Kitchen, presenting a raw zacusca recipe.

Zacusca is a traditional spread in Romania, made from eggplant, red bell peppers and onions. Wikipedia has a nice entry explaining it in detail. It’s quite tasty.

The traditional recipe involves a lot of cooking and some frying, which not only takes time, but also makes the spread fairly greasy and not so healthy. Ligia’s come up with a way to make it raw, delicious, and very healthy. Bon appetit!
