Raw goat liver for dinner was absolutely delicious

by

This morning I felt I wanted to go fruitarian the whole day.  But in the evening I felt a change of appetite as I stumbled upon fresh goat liver at Farmers market.  I saw a nice cut of raw sirloin beef and I saw a nice whole raw goat liver.  I bought them both and took them home.

No sense in letting these things in the refrigerator for lunch the next day.  Fresh is fresh and must be eaten now.  So I used my handy shears to cut off a palm sized cut of the raw goat liver and cut them in bite sized pieces.  Side by side I cut the same palm sized portion of sirloin beef which is muscle with some yellow fat.

The contrast in taste was night and day!  Raw goat liver tasted rich, flavorful, excellent.  Contrast this with raw sirloin muscle of beef which tasted bland compared to the goat liver.  Now I’m spoiled.  Now I know why in the history of humans, the chiefs would get the liver as it was the most delicious part and the slaves would get the muscle meat.

I’ve had both cuts before but this is the first time I tried eating them both in the same plate to compare and contrast.  Maybe the liver i got this time was fresher and came from a healthier goat, that could be a reason with this time this raw goat liver tastes absolutely excellent.

What I do know is excellence in taste of raw food means excellence in nutrition.  Let’s keep tasting and let’s keep noting down those excellent sources.

Weston Price sheds light on the malnutrition epidemic

by

I’m currently reading Dr. Weston A Price’s original 1939 book “Nutrition and Physical Degeneration” and he packs a lot of clear, plain english ancient wisdom to enlighten our ignorant society.  What was most useful to me is the chapter on Soil Depletion and Pland and Animal Deterioration.  Which in short says somewhat: “You can’t build something from nothing.”

Weston Price

Weston Price

Fertile soil gives the raw materials with which you build nutrient rich plants.  The nutrient rich plants feeds the grazing animals.  Humans eat the grazing animals, the vegetables and the fruits whose raw materials ultimately came from the soil.  Abuse that soil over centuries and you literally deplete it of life giving minerals which affect your vegetables, fruits and animals and in turn humans.

This is another piece of the puzzle why in my recent diet experiments I have thrived wonderfully on raw organic / wild local in season fruits and raw wild ocean fish and raw organic / fertile eggs and raw organic goat internal organs.  These are the most nutritious foods in my locale.

Goats have to be fed green grass, not feeds.  Organic eggs are the best nutrition chickens or ducks can give.  The ocean is vastly more nutritious than the depleted farm lands.  Thus ocean animals are immensely healthier and thus more life giving to us humans than land animals.  Fruits are immensely more nutritious than vegetables as fruits are painstaikingly made by the trees or the bush to be edible and those nutrients are concentrated on the fruits.  Vegetables grow too fast.

This is why the Wai Diet is great.  Get the best organic fruits and raw nuts in your locale, get the best raw ocean fish you can buy, never farmed.  Get the most nutritious part of the land animals is my addition aside from the raw egg yolks, the raw internal organs such as liver and kidneys are outstanding.

Many of todays diseases are a combination of lack of proper drainage = constipation; and lack of nutrition.

I love babies and Weston Price has made me conscious about the need to feed children immensely nutritious food all the time.  Making children needs immensely nutritious food given to the father and mother many years prior to reproduction.  Aspiring mothers especially need lots and lots of nutrition, raw materials to make babies with.  Ah the epidemic of infertility today is in a large part due to malnutrition.

It all fits in, it all fits.  Read Weston Price’s book for Nutrition and Physical Degeneration. Enjoy and be enlightened.

Raw maya maya fish eggs dipped in organic vinegar tastes great

by

Last Saturday I was lucky to have stumbled onto less than 1 kilo of maya maya fish eggs.  3/4 of it my cook put it in soup for the kids, the rest I cut up raw in a bowl and put organic coconut vinegar on it.  After some 10 minutes, the vinegar prepared eggs were ready.  Just use chop sticks to pick up a piece and plop it on my plate to squeeze out the vinegar, then eat.  Wow, savory, spectacular.  I thought it would taste terrible as it didn’t look like anything much, but it tasted great!  And very filling too, eggs, rich in fat.  Even my sister in law who usually has her raw limits tasted the raw fish eggs and found them really good.

Next time you stumble onto fish eggs, grab a hold of them fast and try what I just did.  It may surprise you too!

My wife and I enjoy a raw mackerel for dinner

by

Found fresh mackerel at 6:30am in the market this morning.  I bought 1/2 of the mackerel and had it filleted.  Packed and put ice on top of the fish and put it in the refrigerator for our sashimi dinner.  I had the cook use the fish bones and some meat and skin in it to make a clear soup.  Ah, hot mackerel soup and mackerel sashimi for dinner.  That stuffed us well.

My review of mackerel is that it has its distinct taste.  It’s as good as tuna.  And it is so much cheaper.  But the supply is erratic.  Tuna is abundant.  Mackerel is just 1 fish available at a time.  The tuna is big and the fish vendors know that the tuna is to be filleted.

It’s just as the Wai Dieters have rated.  Raw mackerel taste is excellent!

Raw Ocean Dilis is cheap and healthy fish protein

by

I was craving for those thumb width dilis (small Philippine fish) this morning, but I was only able to find smaller than pinky finger sized ones.  No matter, I bought 1/4 kilo for 30 pesos, which is more than I will need for proteint the whole day.  Just dip the dilis for a few minutes in my raw organic coconut vinegar until the fish turn a little white, and they are ready to eat tummy and head and bones.  Crunchy, yummy dilis.

To counteract the monotony of the fish meat, this afternoon I gorged on some fresh green raw salads dipped in extra virgin olive oil and raw green honey.  Fantastic combination.  I stuffed myself over lunch.  And since it was all raw, it was the good kind of stuffing where you feel good and full but not over the top or get sleepy.

Did you understand the price I was talking about?  120 pesos per kilo, but I only bought 1/4 kilo because that is more than enough when raw.  That’s cheap.  Cheaper than tuna, cheaper than mackerel.  I added another 20 pesos and bought 1/4 kilo of lato sea weed.

If you want cheap raw healthy fish, dilis is it.
