Raw Vegan Hot Sauce Recipes

I love hot sauces LOVE hot sauces. They kick up the flavour in bland dishes in a flash and help keep your internal heat up during the winter. I've decided to dedicate my next few posting to raw vegan sauces and condiments. 


Chipotle Sauce 
The smoky flavour of this sauce goes great with bean salads, black beans, over rice, or over a raw chop salad with avocado and peppers.

• 3 dried chipotle peppers (soaked 20 minutes or longer)
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 1/2 a small white onion
• 1 medium tomato (de seeded)
• 1 medium tomatillo
• 3 sun dried tomatoes (soaked)
• 1tsp chili spice
• 1 small jalapeno top sliced off and de seeded

Cut tops off soaked chipotle pepper slice them open and remove the seeds. Put all ingredients in a high speed blender or food processor and blend until smooth. This sauce is best after it has been allowed to marinate for a few hours in the fridge. *Note: It is important to remove seeds from your tomatoes so your sauce isn't too watery/runny.

Easy Peasy Raw Vegan Hot Sauce

• 1/4C water
• 1/4 C Apple Cider Vinegar
• 6 tsps of cayenne powder
• 1 medium clove of garlic

Mix all in a blender until smooth - store in old hot sauce bottles or something that will drizzle. The longer this sauce sits the hotter it gets so experiment with the amount of cayenne you use until you have the right amount of heat for you.

Raw Piri Piri Sauce

• 6 large red or green chillies with seeds removed
• 3 large cloves of garlic
• 2 tsp of paprika
• 1/2 a fresh squeezed lemon or lime
•  (juice only)
• 4T of olive oil

Blend until smooth (you may need to add a bit more olive oil to get the right consistency - should be thick not too runny).

Raw Vegan Chili Sauce

• 6 jalapeno peppers, stemmed and de-seeded
• 1/4C of Apple Cider Vinegar
• 3T of Maple Syrup or Agave
• 4 large garlic cloves
• 1/2T of Pink Sea Salt
• 6T of water (may need a little more or less depending on how juicy your peppers are)

Blend the heck out of it until perfectly smooth. Stores in a bottle in the fridge for up to 3 weeks!

Raw Curry Sauce Recipes

It has been brrrr here lately. I've been craving hot soups, stews, teas anything warm to heat me up. I'm trying to be more mindful about maintaining a high raw diet (even in the cold) - so right now spicy dishes especially curries are a favourite.



Basic Raw Curry Sauce 

• 2 large zucchinis (peeled)
• 1/4c of soaked cashews
• 1t of maple syrup
• 3-4T of curry paste (I like green but go with whatever you like)
• 3T of coconut oil  (melt over v low heat - will melt at body temp)

Toss all in a vitamix or high speed blender pulse until well mixed. Serve over rice, lightly steamed veggies (cauliflower and broccoli is really good or quinoa and raisins for a warming high raw meal.

A little more heat Raw Curry Sauce

• 1 clove garlic minced
• 2 large zucchinis (peeled)
• 1c of Coconut Milk (not the canned kind - the Milk kind) - - or almond milk if you can't find coconut - * if you use almond throw in a couple of tablespoons of shredded coconut
• 2T of yellow curry paste or powder (I prefer the paste)
• 2T of Avocado or Olive Oil
• 1/4 small spanish onion chopped
• 1/2C of soaked cashews 
• 1/2t of cayenne (1/4 if you don't like things too spicy)
• 1t maple syrup
• 4T of white wine (fine without - amazing with)

Same as above give it all a good blending until smooth in a high speed blender

Tomato Raw Curry Sauce

• 2T of Olive Oil
• 1/2 Medium onion chopped
• small thumb of ginger peeled
• 2 garlic cloves chopped
• 1/2t of tumeric
• 1t of ground cumin
• 1t of yellow curry powder (to taste)
• 2 medium tomatoes
• 1/2t of maple syrup
• 1 small green chilli
• 1/2 a lemon squeezed

Blend all together until very well until smooth in a high speed blender. This is great over cooked potatoes and raw peas or with rice. This would probably be really tasty over zucchini pasta but, I haven't tried it yet.

Raw Thai Red Curry

• 2 red chilies (sliced in half tops off)
• 3 green onions
• 1/2 red pepper
• zest of one lime
• thumb of ginger
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 piece of fresh coconut meat (if you have it - shredded is okay if you don't about 3T)
• 1tsp of fresh ground pepper
• 1/2 a lime juice (squeeze)
• 1T of Olive Oil
• 1/2 Cup of Coconut Milk

Blend blend blend!

Copying, Copyright and a fair amount of POedness

I found a posting on another blog that is a reposting of my blog post on mineral makeup (I know a weird thing to steal) - alone a reposting would not upset me however this site is trying to sell cosmetic procedures/products that have NOTHING to do with me. I'm not sure what kind of scam this is but, it looks like a fake blog where the person is reposting other bloggers material in an attempt to draw people in to looking at their products/services... If you blog google yourself  - if you find something similar report it to google they take this sort of thing seriously and will investigate it for you.
