The question I always get asked during the raw food classes I teach is “what should I buy to get started?”.  There is often concern surrounding the investment one must make in order to begin exploring the world of un-cooking, but I like to keep things accessible.  You needn’t drop tons of cash on expensive equipment and supplies to get raw-king in the kitchen!
