01:14 to cook for hour but you're gonna just bake it.
01:18 Well, and these are the some recipes
01:20 I think we'll all enjoy.
01:21 Yeah, and if you have a time, maybe I'm gonna show you

01:26 Really? Yes.
01:28 Well, I look forward to this.
01:30 Okay, and so are you ready for the first recipe?
01:32 I am ready. Okay.
01:35 The recipe is Taste of Heaven Chili,
01:37 and the ingredients you will need are:
02:03 Okay, first what I'm going to do?
02:07 I'm gonna go and put a 1 cup of water,
02:10 and this is distilled water. Distilled? Yeah.
02:12 Purest water you can find in the earth is in here.
02:15 And the 2 cup of cooked beans.
02:19 This is-- you need to season.
02:21 So whatever you like to cook, just make sure
02:24 they use a seasoned beans, and--
02:27 What type of seasoning are you talking about, just salsa?
02:29 And to make sure they are-- you know,
02:32 when you bake the bean that you like to eat,
02:35 the great side dishes.
02:36 So you need to have a seasoning--
02:37 Just the way you'll use the ingredient at a truth table.
02:39 Yeah. Then this one is a vegetarian meat.
02:44 The other program I showed the viewers
02:46 how to make vegetarian meat. Yeah, you did share with us
02:49 how to make that. So I'm just grounding
02:50 the food processor, so.
02:53 Doesn't it look like a ground beef?
02:55 And it's a very simple recipe. Very simple recipe.
02:58 If you like to have written recipe
03:01 called the vegetarian meat by Kyong Weathersby,
03:04 you can call 3ABN, they might send you the recipe, right?
03:08 Yes, that's the thing to do.
03:10 This is such a simple recipe.
03:12 All you need to do is just-- all just dump in together.
03:16 This is tomato sauce
03:21 and garlic powder.
03:24 This is cumin.
03:26 And cumin gives such a good flavor.
03:28 And nutritional yeast flakes which is very high
03:32 in vitamin B1, B2, B6, B12.
03:36 And this is a paprika.
03:38 And do you notice that I don't use any chili powder.
03:42 Yes, I didn't notice that.
03:43 Now this is a Chilean-- probably lot of people
03:45 want to know how come
03:47 she is not using any chili powder.
03:49 Chili powder is very spicy
03:52 and very irritable to your stomach.
03:55 When you use a lot of chili, it will cause the stomach ulcer.
04:00 Later on you can have a tumor too.
04:02 And like I mentioned-- I think I mentioned
04:07 to you the other program.
04:08 Yeah, that you had--
04:10 Yeah, I had ulcer because I was eating--
04:14 so accustomed to eating lot of spicy food.
04:17 And I couldn't digest any food in my stomach
04:20 and I learned all about hot spicy,
04:24 it's not good for you.
04:25 When God created our bodies,
04:28 our stomach line is such a tender.
04:31 And once you're eating spice feast,
04:35 eating up to your line
04:36 and cannot make the saliva to digest your food.
04:39 Oh, really? So this is not spicy,
04:42 otherwise it's gonna be very delicious.
04:44 This is all it is.
04:46 You dumped it altogether. Just that simple.
04:48 You just has to heat up, huh?
04:49 Just you need to cook simmer down for 20 minutes.
04:52 Okay. Then it will be wonderful to eat
04:56 with your brown rice and put on commodity
05:00 and some enchiladas.
05:02 Like a bean, it's very high in fiber
05:05 and it will lower your blood sugar level
05:08 and our cholesterol.
05:09 It will lower your cholesterol.
05:11 And so God put a lot of good things in here. Okay.
05:16 We're gonna move to the next recipe.
05:18 Okay. What's it gonna be?
05:20 We are gonna make bean and tofu enchiladas.
05:24 All right. And the recipe calls for these ingredients.
05:57 Okay, Barbara, are you ready to mix some enchiladas?
06:00 I am ready. I love Mexican food.
06:02 These enchiladas you don't have to use any cheese.
06:05 Wow. And anyway I'm gonna use some cheddar substitute.
06:10 Okay. This is like a tofu water pack.
06:13 Water pack. I'm using a firm.
06:17 A lot of people call it either tofu or soy cheese.
06:20 So when you put it in here, I'm gonna just blend it
06:24 all together with the bean.
06:25 It come out like a-- actually cheddar texture.
06:29 One time I showed this recipe at the cooking school,
06:31 one of my cooking school, and the man he love
06:35 the enchiladas at the restaurant and he even called me there.
06:38 You know what?
06:40 The bean and tofu enchiladas just taste like
06:42 I used to go to some Mexican restaurant.
06:44 Really? Fantastic.
06:46 And he really enjoyed it, so this is a very delicious--
06:49 So I guess we're in something really good here.
06:51 Yeah, the next one, I'm gonna put some cooked bean.
06:56 This is another bean that you seasoned.
06:59 Now I have a wonderful ranch-style recipe
07:02 in my cookbook maybe.
07:04 If you have a cookbook, my cookbook you can use both
07:07 full of ranch-style bean.
07:10 This is one onion.
07:13 You need to chop.
07:14 If you don't chop, it's hard to process.
07:17 Sort of like a medium onion.
07:18 Yeah, medium size onion.
07:20 You chop it.
07:22 And this is parsley, then I put some garlic powder.
07:28 Nutritional yeast flakes
07:30 'cause this brings a good flavor.
07:32 Sea salt with the calcium.
07:36 And all we need to do, go ahead and just
07:39 lock it in your processor.
08:14 You know, the cooking takes lot of patience.
08:17 This one takes little more time to process.
08:20 So I'm gonna let you know that because it doesn't blended,
08:23 don't get disappointed, just keep blending.
08:26 You will blend real good.
08:48 I think it's done. That looks good.
08:50 Isn't it wonderful when you have a machine
08:51 that can do a lot of the work for you?
08:53 Yes, it is.
08:58 Where I come-- you know, I'm from Korea.
09:00 In Korea it doesn't have any food processor or blender
09:03 when I was then 23 years ago.
09:06 So everything you chop with your hand. Yeah.
09:08 So we're really good at chopping.
09:11 Okay, I'm gonna go put this here.
09:13 to here, okay. I'm gonna use, okay.
09:17 I would like to say it in Spanish, Kumusta Amigos.
09:22 It means, hello to all my friends.
09:24 Great. Yeah.
09:26 When I used to live in San Antonio,
09:27 I have a many Hispanic friends
09:29 and I learned some Spanish from them.
09:32 Okay, when I learned how to make these enchiladas.
09:37 Most times people use the oil, but this is just a boiling water
09:42 that you can still make the--good,
09:45 enchiladas without all the fat added to your body.
09:49 So first, this is spaghetti sauce,
09:53 just put some in the bottom here.
09:57 At home, you can use it like a 9x13 baked dishes,
10:01 but since this is cooking show,
10:03 I'm gonna just use smaller one.
10:06 But you can make about 5 enchiladas
10:09 from here but you can make about 10 to 15 enchiladas.
10:13 You just dip it in the boiling water like this.
10:17 Just take it out and just put some filling.
10:20 Oh, I need another spoon. Here you go.
10:23 Well, since you have personal friends
10:25 that are actually Mexican,
10:26 you must know all about
10:28 the authentic Mexican cooking is.
10:29 Yes. And in San Antonio has about 70%
10:35 of the population are Hispanic people.
10:37 So we have a lot of Mexican restaurant over there.
10:40 But as you know, that you know,
10:44 the Mexican dish is very high in fat. Yes.
10:47 Saturate fat. Right.
10:49 When I used to live in San Antonio,
10:51 one time I watched it on news.
10:53 "San Antonio is the fattiest city
10:55 in the United States." It is.
10:57 Because of their eating habit.
11:00 I didn't realize that.
11:02 So one time, I had called radio station
11:05 and I said, "Hey, you know,
11:06 I can provide you good health eating
11:09 since San Antonio is the fattiest city."
11:15 So that was interesting.
11:17 This goes really fast.
11:19 So, how did they respond to that?
11:22 Oh. Not as well as you do.
11:29 Oh, no comment. No, no, okay.
11:32 Well, this is a new twist I'd never even thought
11:34 of doing them this way. Really? Now--
11:36 I'm just learning all kinds of good things from her today.
11:38 Okay, so I'm gonna just make two more.
11:42 Actually this filling is so good.
11:45 You know, beans, very high in fiber
11:49 and are high in iron and protein,
11:51 like a lot of vegetarian dishes
11:54 we use beans because it's perfect.
11:57 And lot of people, "Hey, you're vegetarian,
12:01 what are you eating?
12:02 That's right. Yeah, they're just mystified.
12:05 Yeah, we eat lots of beans and tofu and, you know,
12:09 lot of good proteins from without any unsaturated fat
12:13 and cholesterol, all the disease.
12:19 Okay, I will show you the last step.
12:22 All you need to do, you know, regular enchiladas.
12:26 We are using lots of cheese on top of it. That's true.
12:29 And when I came to America about 27 years ago,
12:32 my mother-in-law, she is American and she said,
12:35 "Kyong, I'm gonna show you how to make chili."
12:38 And she just opened the chili can,
12:41 very high in cholesterol and unsaturated fat
12:45 and she just dipped it in the oil,
12:49 then she just opened the back of the cheese and put it on.
12:53 And if I continue to eat like that probably
12:56 I would have a heart attack or maybe I'll die really young
13:00 with all kind of sickness.
13:02 So, you know, I just praise the Lord
13:05 that we had a health message that we can eat healthy
13:09 and it give us a lots of energy, you know.
13:12 I'll just--because that this is a reason
13:15 I'll just have-- I'll let this have papery.
13:18 There is a way you can eat healthy and have a better life.
13:22 Okay, after you spread the spaghetti sauce
13:27 and then I'm gonna garnish with chopped parsley like this.
13:31 Oh, pretty. Isn't it pretty?
13:33 Yeah, look at that.
13:36 Looks so pretty. Yes. It's colorful.
13:38 Yes, with the red and green.
13:40 And then, you know, on holiday seasons,
13:42 who don't like to pick this one and impress your guests.
13:45 Yes. Yeah. Okay, can I see a little bowl
13:50 with the chips, please? Yes.
13:52 Okay. Sometimes after you make enchiladas,
13:56 you have some leftover fillings.
13:58 This one make a wonderful dish like a bean and tofu dip, so.
14:04 I have a baked chips, I'll show you.
14:08 This is the one actually you can go to super Wal-Mart,
14:11 any grocery store you can find the baked chips.
14:13 They're baked in oven. Yeah, less fat.
14:18 So we can just put some here, so 2 dishes.
14:22 And 1 recipe make 2 dishes.
14:25 So all right, doesn't it look pretty.
14:28 This is really yummy.
14:32 And so nutritious and good for you.
14:36 Okay, I think we have a finished product
14:38 for the enchiladas maybe you can show to our viewer.
14:41 Oh, well let me show you. Yes. Look at this.
14:44 Isn't just a gorgeous?
14:47 Oh, I can't wait to try them.
14:49 By the way, you have to put this is in the oven,
14:52 350 degrees for like a 25 to 30 minutes.
14:56 Okay. Then it's ready to eat.
14:58 Okay, and we're gonna move onto next recipe.
15:01 All right. What are we fixing next?
15:02 We're gonna fix the Baked Spanish Rice.
15:06 Oh, it sounds wonderful.
15:08 Okay and their ingredients
15:09 we need to make Baked Spanish Rice are:
15:37 Barbara, have you ever made the Spanish rice before?
15:41 Yes, I have made it.
15:43 How did you make yours? A number of times,
15:44 but I've never baked it. You never baked it.
15:47 So this will be something different.
15:48 So you cook on the stove pan? Yes.
15:50 When I learned how to make Spanish rice,
15:52 I always learn how to make on stove.
15:55 You fry the rice, then you put a lot of the ingredients
15:59 in there and sometimes they stick to the bottom.
16:01 This is very inconvenient.
16:03 So I said, "Lord, there's got to be easy way
16:06 to make Spanish rice because I love Spanish rice."
16:09 So I said, "Come out with this recipe."
16:11 So praise the Lord.
16:13 He gave me the inspirations.
16:15 This one is such a easy recipe.
16:17 All you need to do just dumping and baking.
16:20 So first, this is a cooked brown rice.
16:24 Do you know how to cook brown rice
16:26 other than using rice cooker?
16:29 Yes, I don't have a rice cooker. I just--
16:31 How do you make your-- cooking your brown rice?
16:36 I can't think of what they call,
16:37 but you kind of brown the rice,
16:39 so when it's dry and then you add the water.
16:41 You've to texturize. Okay.
16:43 This is what it is Okay. Oops. I've learned to do that.
16:49 Easy way to make brown rice is like
16:51 when you wanna make 2 cups brown rice
16:55 uncooked and you can put some like a 4 cups of water.
16:59 Right. Then put it into oven for 1 hour at 350 degrees.
17:03 They come up perfect brown rice.
17:07 And do you know that I used to make my Spanish rice
17:12 with the white rice? And, you know,
17:15 the white rice it has no vitamin B
17:17 because they strip off all the nutrition's.
17:20 So brown rice has all the nutrition we really need.
17:24 Vitamin B is so important in the grain because
17:29 once we eat brown rice with the vitamin B,
17:32 it will breakdown and turn into energy.
17:37 But white rice it has no B vitamins.
17:40 Do you know what happened once we just eating it?
17:43 It will turn to sugar.
17:46 Just pure starch, doesn't it?
17:48 Yeah, pure starch and sugar.
17:49 So specially when people has diabetes
17:55 and they need to stay away from white rice.
17:59 Even though you don't have diabetes. Right.
18:02 And you wanna eat something turn into energy.
18:05 Not, you know, turn into fat and sugar.
18:08 Yes, rather slowly release too, isn't it?
18:09 That's right. Since, it's a wholegrain.
18:11 Yes. So just to see you're mixing it
18:15 and I spent lot of time mixing it.
18:18 Even though it's a cooking show I always tell them
18:20 that mixing is a very important in cooking.
18:24 To get the flavors. Yeah. Everything is evenly.
18:27 Even though you have best recipe in the world.
18:30 If you don't first, if you don't measure it right,
18:33 it's not gonna come out right.
18:35 And if you don't read the instructions,
18:37 it's not gonna come out right.
18:39 And if you don't mix it right even though you
18:41 measure it right and it's not gonna come out right.
18:43 So you have to have three principles for good cooking.
18:46 You see, what I did?
18:49 Measure your ingredient, read instructions. And mix well.
18:53 Then mix well. You follow instructions. Okay.
18:56 I'd like to using 9 inches pie dishes
18:59 because it has good presentation.
19:01 So I'll just spray some nonstick oil.
19:06 Repeat on, you know, rice is based sticky.
19:08 Sticky bitterness. Yes.
19:10 So would you hold this for me?
19:12 Yes, I'll be very happy to. Okay.
19:14 Just transfer to pie dishes like that.
19:21 Okay, get it all out.
19:23 When I was young, my grandma raised me
19:27 because my mom was so busy.
19:30 And, you know, look at that rice grain is so tiny.
19:34 And, you know, when I was little,
19:37 I just spilt the rice, my grandma told me that,
19:40 "You don't waste any grain of rice."
19:43 Because farmer works so hard to, you know-
19:45 To grow it. Yeah.
19:47 So we don't need to waste and you just flattened.
19:54 And I always spend sometime to last patch like this too.
19:58 And look at that, doesn't it look nice?
20:00 Very nice. It's almost like-- Such pretty color. Yeah.
20:03 Almost like enchiladas that has red and green.
20:05 This one is red and green.
20:07 So again it would be a wonderful holiday meal,
20:11 not just for the Amigos, but all the friends
20:14 that are in the United States and all the world
20:16 that you can make these wonderful dishes.
20:19 I think we have finish product we can show it to viewers.
20:21 Yes, we do. Doesn't that look wonderful?
20:28 And I love how you've garnished it.
20:29 Oh, thank you.
20:31 You know, we always eat with our eyes.
20:33 Makes it look so beautiful. Yeah.
20:35 You can just decorate with the parsley
20:37 and some cherry tomatoes.
20:39 And we can--you can eat tomatoes too.
20:41 By the way, you can bake this at 350 degrees
20:44 for just 25 minutes and ready to eat.
20:46 And this kind of nice, just stick in there
20:47 and set the timer and forget it until it dings.
20:49 Ding, then it's ready to eat.
20:51 I think we are ready for the last recipe
20:54 that we're gonna make some non-spicy salsa.
20:57 Oh, wonderful.
20:59 Well, for the salsa, the ingredients are.
21:24 Easily when you make salsa,
21:27 they're all either hot or medium hot or mild
21:32 and like I emphasized so many times there.
21:35 Spice is not good for you.
21:38 God didn't design our body to eat any spicy food
21:42 even right now lot of people say,
21:45 "cayenne is good for you."
21:46 But still is irritable to your skin,
21:48 so get away from it.
21:50 Okay, so this is like a non-spicy.
21:55 First, you need a 8 ounce tomato sauce.
21:58 And look at that, this is like
22:00 a 2 medium tomato already chopped.
22:05 The study has found that the tomatoes
22:08 actually very good for the prostate cancer.
22:12 Oh, really? Yeah.
22:14 And also very high in vitamin A.
22:17 So, ladies, if you wanna have a beautiful skin,
22:20 so lot of tomatoes, especially
22:22 homegrown would be really good.
22:24 Okay, next one now we're going to add onions.
22:28 You know, onions is high in antioxidant--apply
22:34 for your cancer too. Amazing.
22:37 God put so many good things to fighting for cancers.
22:41 Providing to us--us with so many different things.
22:43 And also you're fighting
22:47 for your germ and bacteria in your body.
22:49 And if anybody have a high blood pressure,
22:53 it will lower your blood pressure.
22:56 And if you have weird high sugar levels,
22:58 it will lower your sugar level.
23:00 So it's a wonderful.
23:02 And a lot of people like to put, what you call cilantro.
23:05 Cilantro. Cilantro.
23:07 But when I did there with the cilantro,
23:10 somehow people don't like their flavors.
23:13 So I will just use the parsley,
23:15 but if you like the cilantros, please use the cilantro.
23:18 I like the cilantro. Yeah.
23:20 Then a lemon juice, like already I mentioned
23:23 to you that a lemon juice is such a good for cleansing
23:26 your intestine and your stomach,
23:30 and if some people has constipation.
23:32 It's not good time to talk about it,
23:34 but this is information.
23:36 If you have constipations, when you wake up
23:39 early in the morning, get some warm water in the glass
23:42 and some--add some lemon juice and drink and it will release
23:47 and cleanse your stomach intestine
23:49 and you won't have a constipation problem.
23:52 And it all they're high in fiber food.
23:54 It will help you. Yeah.
23:57 My sister used to have a lot of problem,
23:59 and then now she is cooking
24:01 all the delicious recipes from my cookbooks.
24:05 She's not even vegetarian,
24:07 but she tried and she made lot of things
24:09 and her cholesterol went down to from 270 to 180.
24:13 Oh, wow, that's amazing. In 6 months. In 6 months.
24:17 And her constipation is gone and she is very happy.
24:20 She is not gonna get a colon cancer
24:22 for sure, you know.
24:23 Okay, this is already just to mixing it altogether
24:29 and just this is-- it's not spicy at all,
24:32 but it's got a lot of nutrition in here.
24:35 So it's delicious.
24:36 So I'm gonna go and put it in the bowl here.
24:39 Here we can serve with chips or specially baked chip
24:44 will be really good, isn't it? Yeah.
24:48 Well, our time's almost gone.
24:49 What we're gonna do is take a short break
24:51 in just a minute to give our viewers the information
24:55 they need be able to get some of your recipes.
25:00 We hoped you've enjoyed cooking with Kyong Weathersby.
