But, to be considered raw, food must never go beyond a certain temperature. I've read cured olives are not considered raw, so the brining must involve higher temp's at some point. Also, cheese making involves high heat to pasturize the milk. --Some day I'll learn more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043567387409721448.post-56318145867987141042008-08-11T00:22:00.000-05:002008-08-11T00:22:00.000-05:00Olives are cured in a brine and cheese is cultured...Olives are cured in a brine and cheese is cultured and "rennet-ed". So they would be considered processed and not raw?

And of course the photo is delicious!<BR/><BR/>I suppose it's the peperoncinis that keep it from being technically "raw."<BR/><BR/>Do olives and dried tomatoes count as raw since they're not cooked? Or does "raw" really mean "in the natural state"?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
