rawest
Most minimally prepared
Rawest is the superlative of raw—the most uncooked, unprocessed, or unrefined.
It describes meat at its most undercooked, data at its most unanalyzed, or emotion at its most exposed: This is her rawest album yet.
In descriptions of weather or skin, rawest means the most painfully cold or irritated.
