The Raw Truth

(lu) #1

Cooling Green


This light and juicy drink is satisfying and provides an abundance of minerals. Cucumbers contain much of their vital nutrients in their skin.


Unfortunately, the flavor of a cucumber’s skin is quite bitter. To enjoy a far tastier cucumber, skin included, follow these simple instructions: Cut


the tips off the cucumber. Take the tip from one end and rub its exposed flesh in small circles on the skin near the opposite end until a milky


white sap comes out of the skin. Repeat, using the other tip on the skin of the opposite end. Cut off the new ends now coated in white sap and


use your new, improved cucumber.


SERVES 1 OR 2

1 large cucumber
3 stalks celery
1 teaspoon powdered kelp

Process the cucumber and celery through a juicer into a bowl. Stir in the kelp. Pour into a glass and enjoy.
