We only have baby marrows and I have no sense of what a medium-sized regular one in the UK would be. About how many cups does “3 medium courgettes” come out to?

Hi William,

If your sun-dried tomatoes are very dry then soaking them will help the food processor deal with them.

if they are slightly moist already or your food processor can handle them anyway then there's no need to soak in this recipe.

From Russell: Yes, this will freeze perfectly well. i would suggest putting baking paper between each slice so they can be pulled apart when frozen. Can you freeze extras you make of this?

I undertook a 30-day juice fast in January and then just completed a 19-day fast this month, following it now with two weeks of raw. I haven't committed myself to a being 100% raw for life yet (are you, by the way?) but I'm seeing how easy it could be--especially with recipes like this! I've been eating a few slices of this bread every day for a week now with raw "mayo" (made from macadamias, cashews, spices, apple cider vinegar and water) tomatoes and lamb's lettuce. I've tried it with spinach and romaine, but I've got to say, its the lamb's lettuce that really makes it! Also, I've crumbled up pieces over large salads to act as a sort-of stand-in crouton. Delicious. Thank you for this beautiful recipe! By the way, I think I determined (accurately?) that there are about 170 calories per slice! Its a lot, but I suppose when its accompanied by all the veggie goodness, it actually doesn't add up to that much by the end of the day. Thanks again! Julie PS: I'm planning to be at least 80-95% raw (raw most days)--its just that 100% mark I haven't hit yet. Russell,

This may sound crazy but I also use the batter as a pate! The first time I made it I tasted the batter and it was so good I decided to retain some to use as a sandwich spread on the finished bread. Now, whenever I make the bread, I increase the ingredients slightly so I have extra batter to use as a pate. What I usually do is stir in something extra, like crushed garlic, to give the pate more flavour. I have made this bread a few times and I love it.
