Raw Food Contest

Living Light Culinary Institute, a raw-vegan culinary school in Fort Bragg, Calif., has launched the “5 in 5” Hot Raw Chef Video Recipe Contest. Both professional and amateur chefs are invited to participate, and provide a video showcasing the preparation of a 100-percent vegan, 90-percent raw recipe that only includes five ingredients and is prepared in five minutes or less. “This is our third video recipe contest and the focus is to show the public that making raw food recipes can be fast, easy, and fun,” says Cherie Soria, founder of the 14-year old culinary school. “Our goal is to demystify raw food preparation.”
