Tucked in the backstreets of Ubud, Bali’s spiritual center, lies a culinary Mecca attracting gourmets and raw devotees in their thousands. Some come to Alchemy Café for the delectable flavors, others pursuing high-energy, natural fare, but they all share one thing in common: a love of good food. Food that not only tastes good, but is good for you and the world in which it’s created.
The Raw Alchemist contains a master collection of the café’s bestselling recipes and techniques. With organic, unprocessed and vegan offerings from culinary wizards Shanti Allen and Lesya Pyatnichko, you’ll discover everything you need for an introduction to raw food or a complete health and lifestyle transformation.
Bite into the flesh of a juicy tomato still warm from the sun, and lose yourself in its exquisite flavor. Savor its sweet fragrance, its intense red beauty, and the magical sensation of its nutrients being absorbed into your body. If it's something your system wants or needs, your senses will guide you.
The time has come to reimagine our relationship with food. Natural, seasonal ingredients exude life force. When prepared and consumed with intention, they elevate your food's flavor, quality and healthfulness to standards never before experienced.
The doors to the Alchemy kitchen are open, the pantry is stocked and we are waiting to take you by the hand and lead you on a culinary adventure. This is your time to delve into exploration; to eat, drink, and thrive as a Raw Alchemist.
Across these pages span a rainbow of raw vegan ingredients, minimally processed to enhance and preserve their essences. We use fresh, organic fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, seaweeds, sprouts, spices, berries and superfoods. We don't use animal products, gluten, dairy or refined white sugar.
The benefits of raw food are countless, but the most important are super small, and invisible. Enzymes. 'Living foods' contain loads of 'living enzymes', and because they're alive, they don't survive being cooked. Likewise, experiments show that 60-80% of a food's nutrients are also lost when heated.
With industrialized practices making 'ethical, sustainable animal farming' a contradiction in terms, vegans choose not to consume animal products. This means no meat, poultry, seafood, dairy or eggs. For some, it can also mean avoiding insect-sourced products like honey and bee pollen, and many vegans choose not to use animal materials such as leather, silk, fur, feathers or products that have been tested on living creatures.
These recipes can serve a variety of tastes and interests. It is great for the growing number of people who recently have become curious about raw food and its healing powers as it introduces live food cuisine in a playful, creative and inspirational way. Also, the originality of the recipes will serve as inspiration for the many people who are already experienced raw foodies and chefs.

With money raised from the crowd funding, we can go ahead and place the order for the bulk quantity that they require.

Shanti Allen is a classically trained chef who started her career in some of Europe’s finest restaurants. She believed that culinary creation was an expression of love, but this concept seemed at odds with commercial food practices and the modern Western diet. Converted to raw veganism, she discovered a world of pure, organic produce, and has since become known for transforming it into culinary art.
Originally from Sweden, her passion for food and longevity lured her to the health food capital of the world, Ubud, where she joined a team of talented Alchemists in founding Alchemy, Bali’s first 100% raw & vegan restaurant and health establishment.
She has been named an "Island Trailblazer" in Let's Eat Magazine - The Womens Issue, and featured in numerous other publications including Inspired Bali, Bali & Beyond, The Foodie Magazine, and ethicalfoods.com. She has also published articles and recipes for Yogi times and Bali & Beyond.

Talented vegan chef, nutrition expert, food stylist and Alchemy co-founder, Lesya is dedicated to pure food, well-being, nature and longevity.
She had her very last coke and cheeseburger at age 16, when she realized the strong influence of food on our physical, mental and energetic states.
Years of in-depth research and experimentation followed, bringing her to where she is today: a vegan and mostly raw foodie.
While she enjoys “eating simple”, nothing ignites her like creating gourmet raw recipes, and spreading the life-changing message about raw food goodness.
If you like what you see, please join us on this journey and pledge to help us make this book a reality. You will be generously rewarded. Thank you so much :)
