00:00:13.99\00:00:16.82
Hello friends and
welcome to Let's Cook Together.
00:00:47.38\00:00:50.38
I am your host Jill
Morikone and we have an exciting
00:00:50.41\00:00:52.95
group of recipes planned
for you today all made in the
00:00:52.98\00:00:55.95
crock pot. I have an
exciting guest too with me
00:00:55.98\00:00:58.73
here in the kitchen
her name is JoAnn Rachor.
00:00:58.76\00:01:01.08
Welcome JoAnn Thank you Jill.
00:01:01.11\00:01:02.84
So glad to have
you here you come
00:01:02.87\00:01:04.15
all the way down
from Michigan, alright.
00:01:04.18\00:01:05.55
I'm from Michigan that's right.
00:01:05.58\00:01:06.55
Now tell me before we
get going with our crock pot
00:01:06.56\00:01:08.71
recipes just a little
bit about your ministry.
00:01:08.74\00:01:11.07
Well it's been about 30
years ago that I started
00:01:11.92\00:01:14.31
teaching cooking
classes, but just in the last
00:01:14.34\00:01:16.71
few years I started
doing crock pot classes
00:01:16.74\00:01:19.83
and really kind of
started when about 6 years ago
00:01:19.86\00:01:23.62
I think that my
husband said to me I think you
00:01:23.65\00:01:25.45
write another cookbook
and I thought Oh! Please
00:01:25.48\00:01:28.35
I don't wanna go
through that again.
00:01:28.38\00:01:29.88
It's a lot of work.
It is a lot of work.
00:01:30.33\00:01:32.08
I mean it does
have its benefits.
00:01:32.11\00:01:33.84
Right at home you
have a cookbook right,
00:01:33.87\00:01:36.39
your first cook book is called
00:01:36.42\00:01:37.39
These Ye May Freely
Eat. That's right. Right
00:01:37.40\00:01:39.31
and then the second one
is the one you are telling us
00:01:39.34\00:01:41.16
about. Yeah the second one
is called fast cooking in a
00:01:41.19\00:01:43.63
slow cooker everyday
of the year and we have,
00:01:43.66\00:01:46.85
I have the everyday of
the year because you couldn't
00:01:46.88\00:01:49.01
use the crock pot all
year around not just wintertime
00:01:49.04\00:01:51.75
and you can just do all
kinds of things with this,
00:01:51.78\00:01:53.75
so we will be talking
about a variety of things
00:01:53.78\00:01:55.57
you can do in the slow cooker.
00:01:55.60\00:01:56.62
That's really need. You
know I was telling JoAnn
00:01:56.65\00:01:58.59
before the program that
the only thing I really even
00:01:58.62\00:02:00.46
knew how to cook in the
crock pot is pinto beans
00:02:00.49\00:02:02.62
or any kind of beans,
so I am excited JoAnn.
00:02:02.65\00:02:04.93
Yeah, yeah, I think
that's pretty common.
00:02:04.96\00:02:06.59
Beans is what we
bought the extend of our.
00:02:06.62\00:02:09.04
Right, so just give me
an example of the type of
00:02:09.07\00:02:11.52
things you can cook in
a crock pot. Okay, well
00:02:11.55\00:02:14.06
what we have in the book
is a section on breakfast
00:02:14.27\00:02:18.43
not just how to do
cook cereals, which are very
00:02:18.46\00:02:20.87
important but also how
to do like an apple crisp
00:02:20.90\00:02:23.67
or you can go into the. Wow.
00:02:24.59\00:02:25.72
On tray section and there
will be lots of pasta dishes
00:02:26.46\00:02:29.22
like lasagna or macaroni
cheese. In the crock pot.
00:02:29.25\00:02:31.99
Pasta fagioli. Wow. Or we
have stuffed grape leaves.
00:02:32.02\00:02:37.31
And you can do
all this in crock pot.
00:02:37.34\00:02:39.08
And how to make a
loaf like a tofu loaf
00:02:39.11\00:02:41.02
or a lintel loaf. You can
so, there is a lot desserts
00:02:41.05\00:02:46.39
That's fantastic.
and soups of course.
00:02:46.42\00:02:48.03
I mean I can't
even imagine doing any
00:02:48.06\00:02:49.75
of that in a crock pot
you know. I didn't neither.
00:02:49.78\00:02:51.66
Wow, so you just
been experimenting
00:02:52.21\00:02:53.78
and God has been showing you
00:02:53.81\00:02:54.82
and teaching you how to do that.
00:02:54.85\00:02:55.86
Yeah, my kitchen
is my laboratory.
00:02:55.89\00:02:58.38
I like to
experiment better than cook.
00:02:59.46\00:03:01.32
Right, right. And you
have a website to our friends
00:03:01.35\00:03:04.25

and get these cook
books what's your website.
00:03:05.71\00:03:07.62
It's www.familyhealthpub.com
Standing for publishing
00:03:07.65\00:03:14.65
Yeah. Okay.
00:03:14.68\00:03:15.65

00:03:15.66\00:03:19.28
Yeah, so familyhealthpub.com.
00:03:19.31\00:03:22.06
Okay. good.
00:03:22.09\00:03:23.06
Well, let's go get
going with our first recipe
00:03:23.07\00:03:24.67
we are gonna be
making great, great northern
00:03:24.70\00:03:26.83
beans right,
okay. For the Great!
00:03:26.86\00:03:29.87
Great Northerns you need
00:03:29.90\00:03:31.03
5-5½ cups water 1 pound
dried great northern beans
00:03:31.06\00:03:36.95
1 cup onion, chopped
00:03:37.66\00:03:39.79
1 tablespoon extra virgin
olive oil, which is optional
00:03:39.82\00:03:43.94
3/4 teaspoon salt 2
tablespoons onion powder
00:03:43.97\00:03:48.77
1½ tablespoon
McKay's Chicken Seasoning
00:03:49.58\00:03:52.88
1 teaspoon garlic powder
00:03:52.91\00:03:55.32
1 cup fresh spinach
that's finely chopped,
00:03:55.35\00:03:58.62
and that's optional Okay
show us how to make this.
00:03:58.65\00:04:01.76
This is good
because it's a bean recipe.
00:04:01.79\00:04:03.12
That's right and
beans really are base.
00:04:03.15\00:04:05.04
This is a basic recipe and
beans are such an important
00:04:05.07\00:04:08.81
part to add to our
diet. You know they help to,
00:04:08.84\00:04:11.07
I mean let's start here
by putting the water in,
00:04:11.10\00:04:13.90
but beans help to reduce
our risk of heart disease.
00:04:13.93\00:04:16.93
Oh, I didn't know that.
They are high in protein,
00:04:16.96\00:04:19.46
you know, they are
good source of B vitamins
00:04:19.49\00:04:21.04
and lots of fiber. Yes.
00:04:21.07\00:04:23.02
They help to
reduce our risk of cancer,
00:04:23.05\00:04:26.32
so they are really,
they just don't get enough
00:04:26.35\00:04:28.92
attention. They are
really good for you.
00:04:28.95\00:04:30.61
Yes and they taste
good. Yeah, yeah that's good.
00:04:30.64\00:04:33.95
So, we just put our
water in the pot and then
00:04:33.98\00:04:36.24
we have I am just
doing half a recipe here,
00:04:36.27\00:04:38.32
okay, and so that was two
and 3/4 cups of water instead
00:04:38.35\00:04:42.21
of the regular
amount, but you can do a
00:04:42.24\00:04:44.24
full pound or a
half a pound. Okay.
00:04:44.27\00:04:47.10
And then there is a
half pound of the Navy beans,
00:04:47.13\00:04:50.45
you can use any kind of
white bean in this recipe,
00:04:50.48\00:04:52.74
Navy beans,
great northern beans.
00:04:52.77\00:04:54.51
Okay. Chick peas are delicious.
00:04:54.54\00:04:56.64
Really, I've never
done chick peas. Yeah oh.
00:04:56.67\00:04:58.66
But I have never
cooked them myself.
00:04:58.69\00:05:00.41
Oh yeah they are
very easy to cook
00:05:00.44\00:05:02.34
in the crock, well
all beans. Yeah, okay.
00:05:02.37\00:05:05.39
I just put the salt in
and then this is extra virgin
00:05:05.42\00:05:07.96
olive oil, which
gives a really nice flavor
00:05:07.99\00:05:10.47
it's optional, but
I like to put it in
00:05:10.50\00:05:12.94
because it tastes
good. Yes, now can I ask you
00:05:12.97\00:05:16.05
we are putting
the salt in right away
00:05:16.08\00:05:17.82
and some people say you
shouldn't put the salt in;
00:05:17.85\00:05:19.55
do you have what do
you think about that.
00:05:19.58\00:05:20.93
Well, I mean I
always heard that too,
00:05:21.53\00:05:24.01
but I have cooked honestly
I have cooked hundreds of
00:05:24.04\00:05:26.58
pounds of beans
working on these recipes
00:05:26.61\00:05:28.97
because of I wanted
to get all right. Yes.
00:05:29.00\00:05:32.33
And I really haven't
found a difference. Oh okay.
00:05:32.36\00:05:34.48
Either with the
salt or without the salt.
00:05:34.51\00:05:35.87
Oh okay yeah. So this is.
00:05:35.90\00:05:37.84
So it won't make them tougher
00:05:37.87\00:05:38.85
anything like that. No,
no and they steam to cook
00:05:38.88\00:05:41.46
about the same
length of time either way
00:05:41.49\00:05:43.63
and so you just, then I
was ready to go and you can
00:05:44.03\00:05:46.69
either cook it on
lower, you can cook it on high.
00:05:46.72\00:05:48.89
Fact in my, in my
recipes, I have way you can cook
00:05:49.36\00:05:51.89
at high or low
soaked or not soaked
00:05:51.92\00:05:54.15
because people have preferences.
00:05:54.18\00:05:55.78
Absolutely, well that's
nice. And what I do here
00:05:55.81\00:05:59.32
is just cook them till
they are soft and that is
00:05:59.35\00:06:04.15
where is my border
it's my principle. My
00:06:04.18\00:06:07.50
beginning principle
was using slow cookers
00:06:07.53\00:06:09.39
is because what you
wanna do is find out
00:06:09.42\00:06:13.10
with your cooker
how long it takes to
00:06:13.13\00:06:15.33
cook your beans soft.
00:06:15.36\00:06:16.99
Oh okay. And you know Jill
00:06:17.02\00:06:18.84
all slow cookers
are not created equally.
00:06:18.87\00:06:21.40
They really aren't
and it took me a while
00:06:21.43\00:06:24.06
to figure this out. Right.
00:06:24.09\00:06:26.10
But I've divided it
up into average cookers,
00:06:26.13\00:06:29.40
fast cookers and
extra fast cookers. And an
00:06:29.43\00:06:31.34
average cooker will
cook a pound of beans
00:06:31.37\00:06:33.37
in about 9 to 9 ½
hours, but some cookers go
00:06:33.40\00:06:37.48
faster and they are
gonna take about 8 to 8 ½
00:06:37.51\00:06:40.59
hours to cook
that pound of beans.
00:06:40.62\00:06:42.09
Okay, is that on high or on low?
00:06:42.12\00:06:43.64
On low. On low, so
average is 9 to 9 ½ you said.
00:06:43.67\00:06:47.40
For an average cooker.
Average or if it cooks a
00:06:47.43\00:06:49.75
little faster it's
gonna be what I call
00:06:49.78\00:06:51.56
fast cooker that's
gonna take 8-8½ hours.
00:06:51.59\00:06:53.83
One hour less then.
00:06:53.86\00:06:55.40
And if it's an extra fast cooker
00:06:55.43\00:06:56.73
it's usually
about 6 ½ to 7 hours.
00:06:56.76\00:06:58.83
Wow, that's pretty fast.
00:06:58.86\00:07:00.65
When I have looked
at cookbooks, I have
00:07:00.68\00:07:02.19
seen where they
put you know this
00:07:02.22\00:07:03.77
recipe will take 8 to 10 hours.
00:07:03.80\00:07:06.04
Right. Lot of times it's
like a two hour variation.
00:07:06.07\00:07:08.08
And you say what's up with that,
00:07:08.11\00:07:09.12
that doesn't make any sense.
00:07:09.15\00:07:10.26
Yeah when I wanna eat, I wanna
00:07:10.29\00:07:11.30
eat, I don't
wanna have to wait, so.
00:07:11.33\00:07:13.45
You don't wanna
wait two hours when your
00:07:14.89\00:07:15.86
stomach can't wait,
you know, absolutely.
00:07:15.87\00:07:16.84
You know, may be
I am having company
00:07:16.85\00:07:17.83
and that
everything is gone, so anyway.
00:07:17.86\00:07:20.53
Oh you eat
tough beans and that's
00:07:20.56\00:07:21.86
not such a fun thing, right.
00:07:21.89\00:07:22.86
Not a good idea. No.
Yeah. So that's why I
00:07:22.87\00:07:25.88
once I figured
this out that they work
00:07:25.91\00:07:28.44
differently it just
really made it easy because
00:07:28.47\00:07:30.91
now you can know when your
00:07:30.94\00:07:32.11
food is gonna be ready.
00:07:32.14\00:07:33.11
Yes, I like that. And so you got
00:07:33.12\00:07:36.96
these cooked and now we're gonna
00:07:36.99\00:07:38.33
say that they are
cooked and we are gonna
00:07:38.36\00:07:40.26
bring out our
cooked beans. This one
00:07:40.29\00:07:41.61
over here. Oh, these
have already cooked so.
00:07:41.64\00:07:46.53
These are cooked.
00:07:46.56\00:07:47.53
This is a different. I
liked this crock pot it's
00:07:47.54\00:07:49.24
cute with the egg
paint and tomatoes
00:07:49.27\00:07:51.08
and all that on
it. Isn't that pretty?
00:07:51.11\00:07:52.08
Yeah, how many crock
pots do you have JoAnn?
00:07:52.09\00:07:53.94
Well, should I ask, I probably
00:07:53.97\00:07:58.59
have somewhere around 25.
00:07:58.62\00:08:00.08
Wow. And you know.
00:08:00.11\00:08:02.62
That's a lot. And I just always
00:08:02.65\00:08:04.88
tell my husband
I can justify this
00:08:04.91\00:08:06.46
you know I am working on this
00:08:06.49\00:08:07.78
project and I
wanted to be right.
00:08:07.81\00:08:09.32
And he is the one, who asked
00:08:09.35\00:08:10.65
you to do the
cookbook in the first place.
00:08:10.68\00:08:12.22
Exactly so, that's
right, you know, he
00:08:12.25\00:08:14.33
eats it so he
doesn't mind too much.
00:08:14.36\00:08:17.86
That's right. Sometimes, I would
00:08:17.89\00:08:19.31
have him all go in at once.
00:08:19.34\00:08:20.61
Yes. Almost all of them.
00:08:20.64\00:08:22.21
Are you serious?
Yeah. That's fantastic man.
00:08:22.24\00:08:24.34
And that's good
because it won't show it out
00:08:24.37\00:08:26.93
your electricity
because they run on so, you
00:08:26.96\00:08:28.59
know, they are
cheaper a lot cheaper to run
00:08:28.62\00:08:30.43
than a stove or
oven. So once the beans are
00:08:30.46\00:08:33.21
cooked you are
gonna add the rest of your
00:08:33.24\00:08:34.72
ingredients and I
would like to add my
00:08:34.75\00:08:36.37
seasonings at the end
of cooking in the crock
00:08:36.40\00:08:38.98
pot if possible
because that way you will,
00:08:39.01\00:08:41.08
you will just get
more flavor out of them.
00:08:41.11\00:08:44.75
Okay yeah. So that was the onion
00:08:44.78\00:08:46.82
and the garlic powder and the
00:08:46.85\00:08:48.24
chicken
seasoning. And then if you
00:08:48.27\00:08:50.86
want to the, I add
some spinach and this
00:08:50.89\00:08:55.12
gives it a pretty
color once it's cooked.
00:08:55.15\00:08:56.77
Oh yes, so would you cook a
00:08:56.80\00:08:58.80
little longer once you add this?
00:08:58.83\00:08:59.97
You know really, I
only for like five minutes.
00:09:00.00\00:09:01.76
Oh okay. Yeah just so that
00:09:01.79\00:09:03.24
it all gets hot.
It just, it seems
00:09:03.27\00:09:05.27
to blend up real
nicely that way and
00:09:05.30\00:09:07.60
that's all there is
to it now sometimes that
00:09:07.63\00:09:11.05
works out good and
but let's say you've got
00:09:11.08\00:09:14.88
an extra fast pot
and it's gonna be done in
00:09:14.91\00:09:17.05
like 6 or 7 hours
and you are gonna make on
00:09:17.08\00:09:19.19
for 9 or 10 hours.
Right. So, what do you do?
00:09:19.22\00:09:21.99
I haven't the fog is still.
00:09:22.02\00:09:23.34
Well, what you wanna do is get a
00:09:23.37\00:09:26.50
lamp appliance
timer. Oh! Now where can
00:09:26.53\00:09:29.02
we get one of these?
A lamp appliance timer
00:09:29.05\00:09:30.68
you can get in
any hardware store,
00:09:30.71\00:09:32.23
any you know department hardware
00:09:32.26\00:09:36.51
department of any store.
00:09:36.54\00:09:38.44
Okay. And you just plug
00:09:38.47\00:09:39.65
your pot into here and you can
00:09:39.68\00:09:41.56
set the time that you wanted to
00:09:41.59\00:09:42.99
come on, you can set
this like 6 hours later
00:09:43.02\00:09:45.61
for the beans to
start cooking. And most
00:09:45.64\00:09:48.26
recipes in my book I
can set it for like 6
00:09:48.29\00:09:51.28
hours later and for
them start cooking and
00:09:51.31\00:09:54.25
then you can there it
has a little red button to
00:09:54.28\00:09:57.23
that you can set for
when you want to stop,
00:09:57.26\00:09:58.97
but I usually just
use the green one and you
00:09:59.00\00:10:01.36
know and then it's
done when I am ready.
00:10:01.39\00:10:03.57
Yes that's wonderful.
So, they are pretty handy.
00:10:03.60\00:10:06.48
Yes, so say you get
up in the morning and
00:10:06.51\00:10:08.73
you can put your
beans on and then you can
00:10:08.76\00:10:10.23
just set that timer
and it would, come on
00:10:10.26\00:10:12.83
later and then you
get home at 5 o' clock
00:10:12.86\00:10:14.65
and then your beans are cooked.
00:10:14.68\00:10:16.16
And if it's overnight you
put it the timer in there.
00:10:16.19\00:10:19.52
Yes, so it comes on
at midnight or whatever.
00:10:19.55\00:10:21.07
Yeah. Nice oh that's exciting.
00:10:21.10\00:10:23.94
And there is one other
little tip, yes, that I
00:10:23.97\00:10:25.72
will share at this
time because fast cookers
00:10:25.75\00:10:30.23
and extra fast
cookers I find a lot of times
00:10:30.26\00:10:32.42
they'll sputter you
know water will kind of
00:10:32.45\00:10:35.12
seep out and then
you got to pull the water
00:10:35.15\00:10:36.99
on the table and
you know it makes a mess
00:10:37.02\00:10:39.40
and so I use there as
I use a towel, oh nice,
00:10:39.43\00:10:44.44
and so I just
lay towel over here.
00:10:44.47\00:10:46.59
Just like that
And then I just picks
00:10:46.62\00:10:47.92
up that little bit
that's gonna sputter
00:10:47.95\00:10:49.46
out and don't use
a heavy towel just
00:10:49.49\00:10:51.98
like a hand towel or
even paper towel works,
00:10:52.01\00:10:54.03
but this works very nicely.
00:10:54.06\00:10:55.89
Yes and then you
don't have the big mess on
00:10:55.92\00:10:58.03
the counter that you
got to be cleaning up.
00:10:58.06\00:10:59.49
That's right. Right good.
00:10:59.52\00:11:01.60
So, that's about
it Good. Well, let's
00:11:01.63\00:11:03.40
go on to our next
recipe what are we making next.
00:11:03.43\00:11:05.32
We are gonna make Focaccia.
00:11:05.35\00:11:06.72
Good, you wanna read
the focaccia recipe first.
00:11:06.75\00:11:08.76
Sure with focaccia
we start out with a.
00:11:08.79\00:11:10.67
Bread dough and this is
gonna be 2/3 cups of warm
00:11:10.70\00:11:14.12
water 1 tablespoon
of sweetener you can use
00:11:14.15\00:11:16.97
honey or sugar or any
type of favorite sweetener
00:11:17.00\00:11:19.32
1 tablespoon of baking yeast
00:11:19.35\00:11:22.52
1 cup of whole wheat flour
00:11:22.55\00:11:25.02
1/3 cup of
unbleached white flour
00:11:25.05\00:11:28.30
1 tablespoon of olive oil
00:11:28.33\00:11:31.50
½ teaspoon of salt
00:11:31.53\00:11:35.39
3/4 - 1 cup of whole wheat flour
00:11:35.42\00:11:38.98
that's for the bread dough
00:11:39.01\00:11:39.98
And then
toppings for the Focaccia.
00:11:40.01\00:11:42.51
You can use and this would be a
00:11:42.54\00:11:44.10
combination of 1/4 -
1/3 of a cup you might
00:11:44.13\00:11:46.54
use sliced olives
raw or sautéed onion,
00:11:46.57\00:11:49.89
tomatoes that have
been sliced and seeded.
00:11:49.92\00:11:53.10
You can use a non-
dairy cheese, a sauce
00:11:53.13\00:11:55.67
or crumbled cheese.
Okay Jill so and here
00:11:55.70\00:12:02.06
what we are gonna
do is make a focaccia,
00:12:02.09\00:12:03.74
which is like a
bread dough that you know
00:12:03.77\00:12:06.23
it needed up and you
are gonna roll it out
00:12:06.26\00:12:08.11
and put toppings
on it. It's kind a
00:12:08.14\00:12:09.60
like pizza, but it's not.
00:12:09.63\00:12:10.89
Yes. It's a little
different. Absolutely. And so
00:12:10.92\00:12:13.14
what we have done
here is I have already
00:12:13.17\00:12:14.74
made the dough and
the way I like to roll out
00:12:14.77\00:12:18.11
dough it's really easy
as it I used a wet hand
00:12:18.14\00:12:21.73
towel and I wiped the
counter and then I put
00:12:21.76\00:12:24.75
a piece of plastic
wrap down and I put the
00:12:24.78\00:12:26.84
dough on top of
it and then I covered
00:12:26.87\00:12:28.23
the dough with plastic wrap.
00:12:28.26\00:12:29.49
Okay. You have
already done that so.
00:12:29.52\00:12:31.31
And that's already
done and I would just
00:12:31.34\00:12:33.03
gonna roll it out
and you are basically
00:12:33.06\00:12:35.09
rolling this out
to about the size of
00:12:35.12\00:12:37.04
your slow cooker.
00:12:37.07\00:12:38.04
Okay. And so what we
are using today this recipe
00:12:38.05\00:12:42.12
is if you have like a
six to seven quarts slow
00:12:42.15\00:12:45.42
cooker, if you have
a smaller cooker like a
00:12:45.45\00:12:49.58
five quarts I have
a smaller recipe in my
00:12:49.61\00:12:54.12
book. In fact all of
these recipes they are
00:12:54.15\00:12:56.44
based on larger
amounts or smaller
00:12:56.47\00:12:58.18
amounts. Bless so high.
So, I have both ways in it.
00:12:58.21\00:13:00.74
You have done a lot of work and
00:13:00.77\00:13:01.74
you cooked for that, absolutely.
00:13:01.75\00:13:02.97
It was, I really need adventure.
00:13:03.00\00:13:05.30
That's good. And
since I have an oval cooker,
00:13:05.33\00:13:09.02
I am rolling this
out in oval fashion.
00:13:09.05\00:13:11.75
Okay that makes sense.
00:13:11.78\00:13:13.06
And so we will
just take the pot there.
00:13:13.09\00:13:17.09
We have here, oh this
yeah this is oval I can
00:13:17.12\00:13:18.38
see that. Now this one,
you have already sprayed.
00:13:18.41\00:13:20.55
Yeah, yeah. What
did you spray it?
00:13:20.58\00:13:22.06
Yeah, I sprayed it
with a non stick spray just
00:13:22.09\00:13:23.97
so that the
dough will not stick.
00:13:24.00\00:13:25.99
Yes. And it will
come up real easily.
00:13:26.02\00:13:28.90
Okay. That way.
Looks like, on you there.
00:13:28.93\00:13:30.70
So we just pick up our dough.
00:13:33.11\00:13:34.08
And you just put it in
the bottom of the crock pot.
00:13:34.09\00:13:35.14
Just lay it in
here. Oh look at this.
00:13:35.17\00:13:36.59
Yeah. Fine. This is
neat I am learning a lot.
00:13:36.62\00:13:38.83
Yeah. In fact you
can make bread this makes
00:13:38.86\00:13:42.50
the most delicious
bread is what if you have
00:13:42.53\00:13:44.96
your, I have several
different bread recipes
00:13:44.99\00:13:47.90
and you just make
your dough like that ball
00:13:47.93\00:13:50.03
that I had there
originally, you spray your
00:13:50.06\00:13:52.38
pot, you put your ball
of dough right in there
00:13:52.41\00:13:55.14
and then it's
going to rise and bake
00:13:55.17\00:13:58.06
all at the same time.
00:13:58.09\00:13:59.25
By itself. Yeah and it
only takes like two hours.
00:13:59.28\00:14:01.54
Two hours from
start to finish. I mean
00:14:04.40\00:14:05.37
that's faster
than a bread machine.
00:14:05.38\00:14:06.35
You are right, you are right.
00:14:06.36\00:14:07.33
And it comes out moist and
00:14:07.34\00:14:08.77
yet a nice firm, crustier it.
00:14:08.80\00:14:11.93
Does it take the shape of the
00:14:11.96\00:14:13.43
crock pot that you put it in.
00:14:13.46\00:14:15.04
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it will be
00:14:15.07\00:14:16.64
like it's kind
like a European loaf.
00:14:16.67\00:14:18.50
Yes. And so looks really pretty.
00:14:18.53\00:14:20.54
Yes, wow that's great.
00:14:20.57\00:14:22.19
So now we've got
our dough in there.
00:14:22.22\00:14:23.27
I'm gonna try that, I
am excited about that.
00:14:23.30\00:14:24.63
And I am just
gonna poke it a few times
00:14:24.66\00:14:26.54
because we want this
to stay level we don't
00:14:26.57\00:14:30.88
want it bumpy
you know sometimes it
00:14:30.91\00:14:32.65
would over bubble
once or the another.
00:14:32.68\00:14:34.48
Okay. And so now you
can experiment, you can
00:14:34.51\00:14:37.49
use anything you
want, any kind of
00:14:37.52\00:14:39.27
toppings. I am just
I have some shredded
00:14:39.30\00:14:42.86
cheese here that I
am gonna sprinkle around
00:14:42.89\00:14:45.69
in here, but you can
use some cheese sauce,
00:14:45.72\00:14:48.06
you can use
spaghetti sauce, you can use
00:14:48.09\00:14:50.22
you don't have to
use any kind of a sauce
00:14:50.25\00:14:53.43
you can just put
vegetables on here.
00:14:53.46\00:14:55.27
Well, that's neat.
And I like to put some
00:14:55.30\00:14:57.59
olives. Olives, I like olives.
00:14:57.62\00:15:00.13
And what you will
find lot of times is that
00:15:00.16\00:15:02.49
your dough will kind
of shrink back up some
00:15:02.52\00:15:05.22
and if that happens
don't worry about it
00:15:05.25\00:15:08.36
because as it
expands you know as
00:15:08.39\00:15:11.32
it will go back
out to the sides.
00:15:11.35\00:15:13.38
So, that's kind of
normal if you peek in
00:15:13.41\00:15:14.76
there and say what's
the shrinking its okay.
00:15:14.79\00:15:16.51
Well, when you put
your dough first in there
00:15:16.54\00:15:18.65
if it kind of pulls
back in some then don't
00:15:18.68\00:15:22.14
worry about it
because it will go back out
00:15:22.17\00:15:24.63
again, so then I like
to sprinkle just for some
00:15:24.66\00:15:27.19
color, put some
dried parsley on here, you
00:15:27.22\00:15:31.64
can use onion
powder, garlic powder, you
00:15:31.67\00:15:34.03
can put any of your
favorite seasonings on
00:15:34.06\00:15:36.72
there, may be a little
paprika for some color.
00:15:36.75\00:15:39.66
Oh yeah. That
gives nice reddish color.
00:15:39.69\00:15:41.57
And that's all there is to it.
00:15:41.60\00:15:44.03
That's easy.
00:15:44.06\00:15:45.03
Yeah, it is. It's very
easy. In fact if you, what
00:15:45.05\00:15:49.39
I'll do lot of times
is I will make my bread
00:15:49.42\00:15:51.09
dough in the bread
machine and then put it
00:15:51.12\00:15:53.01
in here, but if you wanna cheat.
00:15:53.04\00:15:54.23
I like that. You can buy frozen
00:15:54.26\00:15:57.67
bread dough you
know. Oh true, you could.
00:15:57.70\00:16:00.07
Yeah even I found that
for a big pot like this
00:16:00.10\00:16:02.59
for the six or seven
quarter if I use about
00:16:02.81\00:16:04.48
two-thirds of it. Okay
00:16:04.67\00:16:06.12
In there that it makes
up really nice focaccia.
00:16:06.31\00:16:08.98
So you put the lid on. No.
00:16:09.20\00:16:11.91
You don't put
the lid on. Not yet.
00:16:12.12\00:16:13.56
Oh okay. No.
00:16:13.76\00:16:14.73
Something
different. This is, this is for
00:16:14.97\00:16:16.53
if you are gonna bake
like if you I have recipes
00:16:16.74\00:16:19.52
for like date nut bars
or brownies or different
00:16:19.71\00:16:26.04
kinds of breads. What
you wanna do is you put
00:16:26.23\00:16:28.44
a hand towel or a
couple layers of paper towel.
00:16:28.64\00:16:31.68
Really. And
then you put your lid
00:16:31.89\00:16:33.31
on because if you don't.
00:16:33.52\00:16:35.01
Now what's the purpose of that?
00:16:35.09\00:16:36.06
There is gonna be
condensation as something
00:16:36.07\00:16:38.57
cooks it you know
condensation here and then you
00:16:38.78\00:16:42.03
are gonna have
drips down there and
00:16:42.20\00:16:44.49
this way it
catches all the water.
00:16:44.70\00:16:46.57
It will be kind of
salty too wouldn't it.
00:16:46.80\00:16:48.60
Yes. Yeah. Boy that's amazing.
00:16:48.80\00:16:51.11
Just like if you bake
your bread in your bread pans
00:16:51.32\00:16:52.85
and you take it out I
mean you don't wanna leave it
00:16:53.03\00:16:54.76
in the bread pans cooling
because it will give salty.
00:16:54.95\00:16:56.84
Moistness. Exactly.
00:16:57.03\00:16:58.28
Wow! So how long
would you cook it for?
00:16:58.47\00:16:59.77
So, this takes in the
extra fast pot it takes about
00:16:59.98\00:17:02.67
an hour and a half to
an hour and three quarters.
00:17:03.01\00:17:05.85
It's pretty easy. The
longest will make if you
00:17:06.05\00:17:08.06
have an average cooker
then its gonna be probably
00:17:08.26\00:17:10.21
closer to 2 1/4
to 2½ hours. Okay.
00:17:10.42\00:17:13.62
What I found is that
most of these big pots,
00:17:13.82\00:17:16.18
the six and seven
quarts most of them
00:17:16.39\00:17:18.39
and I have several. Yeah 25.
00:17:18.61\00:17:21.96
They tend to be extra fast. Okay
00:17:22.18\00:17:26.29
Yeah so it's more
likely gonna take about
00:17:26.51\00:17:28.92
an hour and a half to
an hour and three quarters.
00:17:29.11\00:17:30.90
So, it's the smaller ones
because mine is real little,
00:17:31.11\00:17:32.87
but it's smaller and I think
00:17:33.06\00:17:34.43
it's an average one probably.
00:17:34.62\00:17:35.59
Yeah, yeah, smaller ones
tend to be average or fast,
00:17:35.72\00:17:38.42
right, but it's a good
idea to check it with the beans
00:17:38.65\00:17:41.37
to make sure especially
if you are gonna be gone
00:17:41.58\00:17:43.19
you really want to check it.
00:17:43.40\00:17:44.54
You don't wanna burn
it or, so that you, yeah.
00:17:44.77\00:17:46.40
Now you have a
cute little one I wanna
00:17:46.61\00:17:48.01
show our
friends. This guy is cute.
00:17:48.21\00:17:50.74
Yeah, lot of people have
these little 1½ quarter pots
00:17:50.95\00:17:54.54
they don't even have a
dial on them for temperature,
00:17:54.75\00:17:56.75
but these are
wonderful you can make a ½ pound
00:17:56.97\00:17:59.58
of beans in these. Oh good.
00:17:59.78\00:18:01.29
You can cook almost
anything that you would do
00:18:01.49\00:18:03.76
in a bigger pot you
can use in these small ones
00:18:03.95\00:18:06.31
and it's gonna
come out just fine.
00:18:06.53\00:18:08.28
I find that the
temperature it would be seems
00:18:08.48\00:18:10.78
to be kind of right
between low and high.
00:18:10.98\00:18:13.23
Right okay.
00:18:13.47\00:18:14.63
So, I have a few of
those and I like checking.
00:18:14.85\00:18:15.85
It's like a
medium That's neat, good.
00:18:16.27\00:18:19.51
Alright now we are
making dessert next,
00:18:19.78\00:18:21.05
some sort of
dessert. Yes we are.
00:18:21.08\00:18:22.55
Can you guys imagine dessert in
00:18:22.58\00:18:24.01
the crock pot? Wow, that's neat.
00:18:24.04\00:18:25.79
Yeah, we are gonna
make some Banana bars.
00:18:25.82\00:18:27.09
Good for our banana bars.
00:18:27.12\00:18:28.94
Coconut crunch
banana bars you need
00:18:28.97\00:18:32.06
3 medium bananas, mashed
00:18:32.09\00:18:33.94
3 cups dates, chopped
1 cup raw nuts, chopped
00:18:33.97\00:18:39.52
½ cup coconut ½ teaspoon salt
00:18:39.55\00:18:44.43
1 cup quick oats
Well Jill here we have
00:18:44.46\00:18:50.66
some coconut crunch
banana bars and this
00:18:50.69\00:18:54.00
is our recipe that
is very low in fat and
00:18:54.03\00:18:56.66
doesn't have any
sugars added to it, but oh
00:18:56.69\00:18:59.82
man it's so
sweet, it's really has a
00:18:59.85\00:19:01.60
lot of flavor to it.
And I love desserts so.
00:19:01.63\00:19:03.47
Yeah we're kinder hearts there.
00:19:03.50\00:19:07.13
That's right.
And so what we have
00:19:07.16\00:19:10.01
started out with mashed bananas.
00:19:10.04\00:19:12.11
Now, I have this
recipe in a larger amount
00:19:12.14\00:19:14.34
or a smaller amount
and here we are gonna
00:19:14.37\00:19:15.90
do the full larger
recipe, okay. So you've
00:19:15.93\00:19:18.48
got about a cup and a
half of mashed bananas
00:19:18.51\00:19:20.77
and now we are gonna
add the rest of I think
00:19:20.80\00:19:23.02
so put the dates
right in there and then you
00:19:23.05\00:19:25.85
can use any kind
of chopped nuts as you
00:19:25.88\00:19:27.70
would like and I am
using some walnuts here.
00:19:27.73\00:19:29.76
Walnuts, yeah.
And then some coconut.
00:19:29.79\00:19:31.73
Oh yeah. And salt.
You just want to get
00:19:31.76\00:19:35.06
this mixed up
together. The thing I've been
00:19:35.09\00:19:38.47
playing around with this
and I recently I left the
00:19:38.50\00:19:42.79
oats out of this
recipe. But we will add next, I
00:19:42.82\00:19:45.44
used some wheat
germ and flaxseed, and it
00:19:45.47\00:19:49.56
was delicious
again because of the
00:19:49.59\00:19:51.37
sweetness of this
you don't really notice.
00:19:51.40\00:19:53.40
Yes, because the
bananas are sweet.
00:19:53.43\00:19:55.25
Yeah, it just really has it, so
00:19:55.28\00:19:57.17
you can put the oats in there.
00:19:57.20\00:19:58.34
Okay. But if you want
to leave those out you can
00:19:58.37\00:20:00.51
add like a half a cup
of ground flaxseed and
00:20:00.54\00:20:03.42
half a cup of wheat germ.
00:20:03.45\00:20:05.09
Oh that's neat in
fact wheat germs are
00:20:05.12\00:20:07.06
really good for you too right.
00:20:07.09\00:20:08.06
Yeah, it is, it is.
00:20:08.07\00:20:09.55
Yes, oh that's neat.
00:20:10.89\00:20:11.86
So, you just mix
this up, mix together,
00:20:11.87\00:20:13.51
and then if you
wanna get the pot there.
00:20:13.54\00:20:14.90
Now this is our crock pot it's a
00:20:14.93\00:20:16.62
different size
than the last time.
00:20:16.65\00:20:17.84
Yeah and this
is about a 4 quart.
00:20:17.87\00:20:20.77
Okay. And also 3 ½ quart oval.
00:20:20.80\00:20:22.99
Now, it says on the
front I am trying to
00:20:23.02\00:20:24.46
look here does it say the size.
00:20:24.49\00:20:25.73
No, it doesn't. But
the way, well the way
00:20:25.76\00:20:29.03
that you if you
don't have your box and
00:20:29.06\00:20:31.00
don't know for
sure what it is, okay,
00:20:31.03\00:20:32.52
you fill it up with
water right to the brim.
00:20:32.55\00:20:35.31
Okay. And then like if
I fill this up I know that
00:20:35.34\00:20:39.66
this is a 3 ½ quart. It
actually wouldn't hold 3 ½
00:20:39.69\00:20:42.90
quarts of
water. Oh, it wouldn't.
00:20:42.93\00:20:44.30
No, it would be
like roughly about
00:20:44.33\00:20:46.59
a cup or two less than that.
00:20:46.62\00:20:48.09
Okay. Because So how
can they say its 3 ½ quart,
00:20:48.12\00:20:51.04
when it's not 3 ½ quart.
Jill this is TV. We don't
00:20:51.07\00:20:55.12
talk bad about
companies you know.
00:20:55.15\00:20:57.46
Okay, okay. They
measure the circumference.
00:20:57.49\00:20:59.81
So, it's the
outside not the inside.
00:20:59.84\00:21:01.61
Yeah and that's how
they determine. That's
00:21:01.64\00:21:03.63
what I was told
by customer service
00:21:03.66\00:21:05.24
because I
wondered the same thing.
00:21:05.27\00:21:06.68
Right. Okay that makes sense.
00:21:06.71\00:21:08.76
So, okay now we
are gonna just pour
00:21:08.79\00:21:12.31
this right in. Now
I notice that you have
00:21:12.34\00:21:14.73
sprayed this one
too. Yes, thank you.
00:21:14.76\00:21:16.36
You wanna spray it
with a non-stick spray and.
00:21:16.39\00:21:20.42
Would it say in
your cookbook when to
00:21:20.45\00:21:22.06
spray and when not to
spray or. Yep. Oh, good okay.
00:21:22.09\00:21:24.28
Yeah. So you don't
have to worry about that.
00:21:24.31\00:21:26.03
And so you just
gonna mash it down and
00:21:26.06\00:21:30.84
then after you've
got it nice and smooth
00:21:30.87\00:21:33.61
down there you just
go into pull it away
00:21:33.64\00:21:35.87
from the side about with your
00:21:35.90\00:21:37.37
fork about a quarter of an inch.
00:21:37.40\00:21:39.00
Okay, what is
the purpose of that?
00:21:39.03\00:21:40.97
Because slow
cookers, we call them slow
00:21:41.00\00:21:43.77
cookers because
that's the generic name the
00:21:43.80\00:21:45.91
technical, you
know, rival has the
00:21:45.94\00:21:47.86
trade name called crock pots.
00:21:47.89\00:21:49.57
Right. But, so
technically the generic
00:21:49.60\00:21:52.69
name is a slow cooker.
00:21:52.72\00:21:53.83
Okay. But most slow
cookers cook from the
00:21:53.86\00:21:56.80
sides you know
there are heating elements
00:21:56.83\00:21:59.68
around the side and so
you wanna pull this away
00:21:59.71\00:22:02.66
and that's why
you can bake in a slow
00:22:02.69\00:22:04.58
cooker because it's
not cooking from the
00:22:04.61\00:22:06.54
bottom. If it cooks
from the bottom, it would
00:22:06.57\00:22:08.83
burn, every once in
a while people has slow
00:22:08.86\00:22:10.96
cookers that cook
from the bottom. But you
00:22:10.99\00:22:13.57
know those are
usually the kind that you set
00:22:13.60\00:22:16.20
this insert on to a
tray, yes, and they call it
00:22:16.23\00:22:20.33
as slow cooker. But
it's cooking from the
00:22:20.36\00:22:22.54
bottom, but like
I say almost all of
00:22:22.57\00:22:24.17
them cook from the sides.
00:22:24.20\00:22:26.10
Okay. And that way
since it's cooking from the
00:22:26.13\00:22:28.62
sides it won't burn
the bottom, yes, you are
00:22:28.65\00:22:31.39
gonna get brownness on the edges
00:22:31.42\00:22:32.84
and you do have
to watch that but
00:22:32.87\00:22:34.55
So, do you pull it
in a certain amount, I
00:22:34.58\00:22:36.77
see it looks like
maybe half an inch or so.
00:22:36.80\00:22:38.37
Well, about a
quarter, quarter inch that you
00:22:38.40\00:22:41.66
pull it in because it is
gonna slide back out some.
00:22:41.69\00:22:43.79
Yes. And then just
like with the focaccia
00:22:43.82\00:22:46.30
you wanna add a towel.
00:22:46.33\00:22:48.15
Yeah, okay. Before
you put your lid on,
00:22:48.18\00:22:50.50
so that it
collects the condensation.
00:22:50.53\00:22:52.81
Yeah okay. And
that's really and then
00:22:52.84\00:22:55.84
it bakes on low,
okay, the same with
00:22:55.87\00:22:59.39
the focaccia you bake it on low.
00:22:59.42\00:23:00.85
Yeah we did that on
low too right, okay.
00:23:00.88\00:23:02.33
Yeah and it's gonna
take for an average pot,
00:23:02.36\00:23:05.39
its let's see its about
2 to 2½ hours, but if it's
00:23:05.42\00:23:09.44
an extra fast pot
it's an hour and 3/4 to 2
00:23:09.47\00:23:12.59
hours and your fast pot
is right there in the middle.
00:23:12.62\00:23:15.73
Now go ahead. Well and then
00:23:15.76\00:23:18.25
you just let it bake
and then you can actually
00:23:18.28\00:23:20.49
set the timer on this
one also to let it start
00:23:20.52\00:23:22.80
like six hours later. Right.
00:23:22.83\00:23:24.55
And then let it cool a
little bit and then you
00:23:24.58\00:23:27.94
can slice them and
you can eat them just as
00:23:27.97\00:23:29.98
they are or you can
put a little apple sauce
00:23:30.01\00:23:32.35
on there or tofu
cream that sort of things.
00:23:32.38\00:23:35.24
Yeah that sounds good.
Yeah. Yeah, I feel like I
00:23:35.27\00:23:37.25
am going to school
here learning so much
00:23:37.28\00:23:39.10
that's wonderful, I
was just gonna ask you I
00:23:39.13\00:23:41.99
was trying to
remember did you see
00:23:42.02\00:23:42.99
the oval pots were
usually a faster cooker.
00:23:43.00\00:23:45.37
No, no. I would say
like 6 or 7 quarts tend
00:23:45.40\00:23:49.38
to cook faster
than the smaller ones.
00:23:49.41\00:23:51.51
Good thing, I asked you.
00:23:51.54\00:23:52.66
Yeah. Okay, well
that's neat. And then you
00:23:52.69\00:23:55.63
just eat it and enjoy
it, I think we can try that.
00:23:55.66\00:23:58.48
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
You can use it for a
00:23:58.51\00:24:00.28
dessert or you
can use at breakfast.
00:24:00.31\00:24:02.91
That's true. That's
a good point now let's
00:24:02.94\00:24:05.48
give our friends at
home your website one
00:24:05.51\00:24:07.62
more time, okay,
they are interested in

been, you publish
cookbooks, other people's
00:24:16.91\00:24:19.10
cookbooks. That's
right. Isn't that right?
00:24:19.13\00:24:20.54
Other cookbooks

00:24:20.57\00:24:21.89
natural remedies. Yeah.
Oh, that's neat. So, you
00:24:21.92\00:24:24.20
have been doing
this for a while.
00:24:24.23\00:24:25.20
Yeah, yeah actually for
I don't know over 20 years.
00:24:25.21\00:24:29.42
Wow, wow. So you
have the ministry and
00:24:29.45\00:24:32.38
you have been
doing the cooking schools
00:24:32.41\00:24:33.61
for say 30 years you said but
00:24:33.64\00:24:34.92
Yeah. At least
doing the publishing for
00:24:34.95\00:24:36.77
20 years. That's
wonderful. Good. Well,
00:24:36.80\00:24:39.29
I am excited I have
learned a lot today and
00:24:39.32\00:24:40.97

moment to
review our cooking in a
