Huell visits with Zitari, an amazing raw food chef who assembles delicous dishes made entirely of raw , uncooked fruits, nuts and vegetables.
Zitari's "Nutlicious Macaroons"
This unique and tangy raw food version of the traditional coconut macaroon is a finely chopped mixture of nuts and pineapple rolled into a ball and finished with a light dusting of coconut.
Ingredients:
---------------
Dried Pineapple, unsweetened and unsulphered.
Nuts, unsalted, in any combination or alone (walnuts, pecans, cashews or pistachios work best.) 1-2 cups Coconut, very finely shredded and unsweetened.
---------------
Soften the dried pineapple in water for about 15-20 minutes, until fruit is pliable enough to be finely chopped. Put 1-2 cups of coconut into a bowl for coating and set aside.
Mix equal parts softened pineapple and nuts in food processor or blender until finely chopped. Form into 2 1/2 inch diameter balls. Roll each ball in the coconut, completely coating each one.
