How to make a great entrance and a graceful sortiee.

Yoga has been in my life for the last 15 years. I used to be a teacher and that was 12 years of my life.

I loved to teach and I think I was pretty good at it. But for many reasons I stoped and that halt took me to where I am today.

As I continue to contribute the Rawness blogg we will touch all those places of my life. But for now all I can say about it that I´m finally really happy. I´m starting to like who I am and I love what I do.

I´m lucky. I´ve worked with the three of my passions in life. Fashion, yoga, now food and writing about it.

It´s both a blessing and a curse to do this. Or not a curse but it takes you places you´ve nerver thought you´d end up in. And it teaches you stuff you didn´t think you needed.

Without the daily practice of yoga I´m not sure I would´ve survived my crash courses of emtions. I wouldn´t have developed into a better version of who I was before.

Gone are the days when yoga was my jobb and with that the luxury of always having a shala to pracitce in AND the time…..

But I´m greatful. Now working with what I do I get the best produce, products, plants, education, food and drink a girl could wish for.

Yoga teaches us many things about our bodies and minds. But if you listen a bit more to the words and the actions you will see it also and foremost mirrors you in life and where you stand.

You get to meet the supernovas of your personality. Like handstands, deep back bends, thouching of toes, standing still in chaos, being able to keep on breathing in deep unknow waters and simpliy returning to your mat.

And wheter you want it or not your demons will come out and play with you. Fuck with you until you see, feel, live, talk, reason and learn to live with them in peace.

The demons or your bad habits are the keys to getting your life in balance. When you can have a glass of wine with them or a coffe then you´ll know they´ll be THE creative force to becoming you.

And that´s the reason why yoga is my choice of cure for all my vices.

Where ever the yoga takes you, you will need cruches and side tracks to help you see where to focus.

The pulling of the yoga top, touching of your hair.

The nervous cough.

The aggressive force vs the lethargic.

The I´ll start tomorrow or the I must must do every day.

All those things need to be there till you´re ready to let go and learn how to walk without the aid of a bad habit.

That´s how you learn to make a great entrance and a graceful sortiee.

When in France

SWEDISH:

Risrullar är inte typsik fransk mat men i denna “French Indochina” tolkningen blir det en perfekt lunch i hettan. Jag säger hetta för det är ca 40°. I love it, mitt klimat. Jag solkattar mig och njuter.

Det blev 2 varianter rullar idag. Bägge mer Salade Nicoise än koriander och tamari.

En helt plant baserad med cashew/senapsfrön/pepparots/kapris kräm och en tonfisk/dijon/kapris röra.

Plantorna i blev haricots verts, frisse salad, gurka, polka betor och rädisor. En riktigt het paprika sås med bränd cayenne peppar och agave.

Upplagd på fikon blad från trädgården och lite annat gott.

Tips:

Använd det du gillar i rullarna, det är ju lite som att göra en nudelsallad fast i rulle. Bara för det heter vietnamesiska ris papper betyder inte att det måste smaka asiatiskt.

I våras gjorde jag Italian style med zuccini blommor och då fick rullen namnet Condom of flowers.

Vill du köra helt raw så använd hyvlad rättika.

Mina föräldrar har verkligen ingen state of the art mixer utan här kör vi mixer stav med olika tillbehör. För att få en krämig nöt kräm eller len dressing mix lite åt gången istället för att ösa på med alla ingredienser på en gång.

För mer chunks haka hälften och mixa resten.

ENGLISH:

Use what you like in you rice rolls. When I´m here in France I make them more Salade Nicoise. The plantfood version is with cashew/mustardseed/horseradish/capers cream.

The other is with tuna/dijon/capers.

Haricots vertes, frisse salad, cucumber, chiogga beets and radish. Hot pepper sauce with burnt cayenne and agave.

If you want to make the rice rolls totally raw use daikon radish for wraps.

Tips:

My parents don´t have a super mixer, here it´s the hand blender. To make a creamy nut sauce or dressing mix small parts of the ingredients at a time.

For more chunks chop half and mix the rest.

Bonne Appetite!
