New large softcover book, 334 pages. Published 2006, reprinted several times

wholefood n. food that is eaten as close as possible to its natural state, without unnecessary processing and refining

Wholefood is about understanding the foundations of healthy food and eating - valuing food that is real. It begins with the premise that the more food is refined, processed, modified or boosted with chemicals, the more its inherent goodness is lost. The book also provides the recipe tools to incorporate wholefood cooking into practical everyday life.

Author Jude Blereau introduces readers to the basic wholefoods and the different ways to prepare them - fruit and vegetables, nuts and seeds, whole grains, beans and legumes (including tofu and tempeh), sea vegetables, natural sweeteners and good quality fats. Centred around these basics are inspiring recipes, from simple salads to slow-cooked stews, many of which cater for vegetarians, vegans and the gluten intolerant. The book also contains some fabulous meat dishes and a delicious desserts and baking section.

Wholefood celebrates food that has the ability to heal, nourish and delight and is a wonderful resource full of information and delicious recipes using wholefood ingredients and techniques.
