00:45 Hello friends and welcome to Lets Cook Together
00:47 I am your host Jill Morikone
00:49 and we have an exciting program
00:51 planned for you today All raw, pasta,
00:54 rice all different types of salad recipes.
00:57 So get your pens and papers ready
00:58 to write down the recipes as we share
01:00 them with you. But first I would like
01:02 to introduce to you my special guest here
01:04 in the kitchen from Oklahoma,
01:05 Ardmore, Oklahoma. Her name is Mary Bernt.
01:08 Welcome Mary. Thank You Jill.
01:09 So glad to have you here.
01:10 Why don't you tell our friends at home
01:12 a little bit about your restaurant
01:14 and all the other things you're involved in.
01:15 Well, we have a vegetarian restaurant in Ardmore
01:18 with the health food store.
01:19 And it's called? Veggies.
01:21 I like that name, Veggies,
01:23 I like that name too
01:24 And in fact fiends Veggies was named in 1998
01:27 one of the best restaurants from
01:29 Magellans right? Magellan Press.
01:31 Magellan Press, that's awesome,
01:32 so they came and visiting your restaurant
01:34 in Oklahoma? No, that was in Rapid City,
01:36 South Dakota, okay, but we had,
01:38 its pretty much the same idea,
01:41 and the same name? Same name,
01:42 lot of the same recipes.
01:44 That's awesome so these people came
01:46 and they were, so your food is really good.
01:48 I agree your food is really good.
01:49 That's awesome, thank you.
01:51 And what else you do?
01:52 Well, we do a lot of ministry there,
01:54 we help a lot of people with their health
01:56 and one of the things that we found is that
02:00 as we practice what we know to be true
02:06 as far as eating vegetarian and leaning
02:09 toward more healthy lifestyle,
02:11 drinking a lot of water,
02:12 all of those kind of things that we can really
02:14 see some phenomenal things,
02:16 that's awesome, with people.
02:18 Do you have a story you could share
02:19 with us before we get going
02:20 Oh! I love to. We recently worked
02:22 with a gentleman named Charlie,
02:23 his wife had come to one of my Health
02:25 and Nutrition Schools and Charlie
02:27 had a quintuple bypass about three years ago
02:31 and, quintuple? Quintuple, yes, five.
02:38 Now, that was just three years ago,
02:41 so Charlie started having chest pain again.
02:43 Went to his doctor, his doctor said,
02:46 Charlie, you are completely clogged
02:48 up again. And you have
02:51 two options here, you need to do another
02:53 bypass or you go home
02:56 and basically prepare to die.
02:58 That's sad, can you imagine receiving
03:01 that kind of news? Well, isn't that awful?
03:02 Oh! I cannot either Charlie
03:04 said the first bypass was so difficult
03:06 that he chose to go home and die and,
03:10 this must be tremendous,
03:11 'cause who would wanna choose to go home and die.
03:13 So that was so bad.
03:14 Well, that tells you a lot, doesn't it, yes.
03:15 Yeah, absolutely and we're not talking
03:18 an extremely old man, he's in his 50s.
03:21 Well his wife came to me and said
03:24 is there something that we could do,
03:26 is there anyway you can help us
03:27 and I said yeah,
03:29 I think maybe and so that they came
03:31 and visited with me at the restaurant
03:33 and I really tried to encourage him
03:35 to go to one of the lifestyle centers
03:38 that I'm familiar with,
03:39 but he didn't want to do that option either.
03:42 So I said well Charlie this is extreme.
03:45 So we're going to do something extreme
03:47 what I would really like to do then
03:49 if you won't do that and you won't do
03:51 the bypass lets go on a all raw diet.
03:54 All raw? I mean, totally, no cooked food,
03:56 no cooked food. And he readily agreed to it
04:00 actually, he sat there and he thought
04:02 about and he said will it help and I said
04:03 well I've seen it help before and he said well,
04:07 I'm willing to give a try.
04:08 Two months into it his ash and gray face,
04:13 developed a rosy pink glow again.
04:15 Are you serious? It's fantastic.
04:18 And a man who daily had heart,
04:19 excuse me chest pain stopped having
04:23 the chest pain, in fact they just went to
04:26 Colorado and even up in the high altitude
04:28 there was no more chest pain for him.
04:29 And his last doctor report which was just
04:32 last month, cholesterol is a 112,
04:36 Triglycerides were just totally low and every,
04:40 the doctor said I don't know what you're doing
04:42 but you better just keep it up he said,
04:44 because you're just like a new man
04:45 and so its given him a new lease on life.
04:48 Absolutely, and when you are in your 50s
04:51 I mean that is just young to be told
04:53 to go home and die yourself.
04:54 Exactly, oh praise God that's exciting, amen.
04:56 Amen. You're in the business of
04:58 helping people. We're in the business
04:59 of helping people with their health.
05:00 Yes, Okay well we're making,
05:02 what are we making first?
05:03 Well, first we're going to make
05:04 what I call a substitute vinegar.
05:06 I don't like use vinegar,
05:08 I love to use lemon juice however
05:10 because those lemons Jill are power
05:14 packed with Fido chemicals.
05:15 There are more than 50 Fido chemicals
05:18 in every lemon that help us to fight disease.
05:21 Praise God, exactly and we think of it
05:23 as being acidic but when its actually digested,
05:26 it yields out an alkaline ash.
05:29 So that's amazing.
05:30 So we are going to make this vinegar
05:33 substitute and then we are going to use
05:34 it in the three salad recipes
05:37 that we're going to make.
05:38 Good, that's sounds good Let's
05:39 read that recipe for the Honey Lemon Marinade
05:55 Alright, that's nice and easy?
05:56 Yes, it's very easy
05:58 Now, tell me, why, for our friends at home,
06:00 why wouldn't you want use vinegar,
06:01 what's wrong with vinegar?
06:02 Well Vinegar is fermented and so because of that
06:07 it will actually, especially large amounts of it,
06:10 that they would put in a salad dressing.
06:12 Oh Yeah, Its going to ferment everything
06:14 into the stomach, that doesn't sounds too nice,
06:17 another interesting. No,
06:18 it doesn't sound too pleasant.
06:19 We don't want things fermenting in there,
06:20 we want to be able to digest in a manner that
06:24 nutrients and everything will be observed
06:25 really readily. Yeah.
06:26 And if the folks out there get my cookbook,
06:30 I have a very cute little story about
06:35 vinegar in there, you know actually
06:36 they don't to need to get my cookbook
06:37 they can even just look it up in their
06:38 in encyclopedia for vinegar yield.
06:41 Oh! Yes, a vinegar yield
06:42 is something frequently subsists
06:44 on vinegar and is actually sometimes ends up
06:48 being part of the process of making it
06:49 and it is a little parasite. It's an actual, yes,
06:52 it's alive and it's a little bug
06:54 and it comes from a fly.
06:56 Maybe we should go to, so we make this,
06:57 that sounds good, yes. With our loving juice
07:01 That sounds much better. Yes, absolutely.
07:03 This is very easy, I love easy.
07:06 Me too, absolutely.
07:07 Now, this is a double recipe because
07:10 we are going to be making several salads
07:13 with this, so we made a large recipe,
07:14 so we have our lemon juice,
07:15 we have our salt, our garlic powder,
07:19 our onion powder. Yeah, and our honey.
07:22 Now it might seen like a lot of honey
07:25 but these recipes,
07:26 remember have a lot of fiber in them,
07:29 yes, and one of the keys we found
07:32 even when working with diabetics that they
07:34 can have some of these kind of things
07:38 if it has a lot of fiber with it because fibers
07:41 slows the absorption of sugar in the body.
07:43 Okay, isn't that wonderful?
07:45 So if you have a lot of fiber then
07:46 you can get away with "a little more sugar.
07:47 Little more, yeah absolutely.
07:49 Not like having a top that is just
07:52 you know half a cup of sugar with no fiber,
07:55 right okay. So we put this in there
07:57 and then we'll just blend it up
07:59 and then we will be ready.
08:01 Good, well that's easy, I like that, yeah,
08:04 it's very easy and you know you can blend a
08:06 batch of this at home and,
08:07 stick in the fridge, stick it in the fridge
08:09 and it will last for ten days to two weeks.
08:11 Alright, so I'm gonna blend.
08:12 Oh! We're done? We're done
08:22 And we are ready to make some salads
08:24 Oh! I can't wait, I love salad.
08:25 What's our first salad that
08:26 we're gonna be making here?
08:28 Our first salad is actually one
08:29 of my favorites, it's called toasted
08:30 sesame pasta. Good,
08:32 that sounds good. You want to read
08:33 that recipe for us. Well, I be happy too.
09:10 Alright, I like this pasta salad.
09:12 Isn't it pretty?
09:13 Oh! Yeah with all the different colors.
09:14 I am excited about this, you're gonna like
09:17 this salad, this is really my favorite salad
09:19 Is it really? I love the salad
09:21 Do you serve it at lot at your restaurant?
09:22 You know we don't serve this much at
09:24 my restaurant because we just tend to
09:27 put out a big salad bar that has lots of raw
09:31 that you put on a salad but we do once
09:33 in a while and at home this is what I love.
09:36 Yes, right, so what we're going to do Jill
09:38 we're just gonna add all of our ingredients
09:40 with the pasta and to be honest with you,
09:42 I'm not married to you know exact
09:46 amounts of recipes. Exactly,
09:49 if you like broccoli, put a little broccoli in,
09:51 I like that. If you like red pepper
09:53 put a little red pepper in,
09:54 if you hate onion, leave it out,
09:56 leave it out, exactly.
09:58 So we'll just toss this in and I think
10:01 you'll find that this is a good salad.
10:04 That's our broccoli and it doesn't have to be
10:07 super, super small pieces.
10:08 It doesn't have to be super small pieces
10:10 we're gonna use a little bit of this red pepper
10:13 I believe for another salad we will save some
10:15 of that out and then we got onion.
10:18 Now, I do love onions. Yes.
10:20 So how do you feel about onion?
10:21 I like cooked onion, raw onions,
10:23 okay, alright. Well we'll marinade it
10:26 a little bit in our vinegar substitute.
10:28 So we won't add all of that
10:30 because Jill doesn't like.
10:31 Well thank you You're very welcome.
10:32 How do you feel about olives?
10:33 I love olives.
10:35 Okay, well then we'll put the olives in.
10:36 Yes. Now, is there a difference
10:37 between the green and the black.
10:38 Do you preferred to use the green olives?
10:40 I love little green olives,
10:41 they're the Lindsay green olives
10:43 and to be honest with you the reason
10:45 a black olive is, they actually can grow
10:49 a black olive but what they do to make them
10:52 look more uniform is they add a chemical
10:54 to the olives and so then you get
10:57 this uniform black olive and the Lindsay olives.
11:01 Exactly, you're getting a chemical
11:03 The Lindsay olives don't have the chemicals
11:06 in them and they just have a wonderful flavor.
11:09 So green is the natural color
11:10 on olive tree basically.
11:12 Well, and I do believe there are some olives
11:15 that are actually darker olive like a
11:18 Kalamata olive, oh yeah!
11:19 But whether you know,
11:21 I just know that they use that
11:23 chemical to make it uniform. Right
11:25 So isn't it just beautiful?
11:26 Oh! It is, I love the colors.
11:27 You ever seen anything so gorgeous? Yes.
11:30 And we're just going to add our
11:31 Honey Lemon Marinade.
11:33 Oh! Yeah we just made that.
11:34 We just made that, very nice.
11:36 And if our friends at home like it
11:39 little spicier they can just toss in a little
11:42 crushed red pepper, that's kind of fun.
11:43 Oh! Yeah, that's good,
11:45 and the way we're really going to get
11:47 our flavor for this salad. Yes.
11:48 Is our toasted sesame oil. Yes.
11:51 Yes, the toasted sesame oil has just a
11:54 wonderful flavor and we're going to add
11:58 about a third cup but there again
11:59 for those who like that flavor if they want more
12:03 they can add more, if they don't
12:04 they can add less. I like that, yeah.
12:06 But it does, it gives it kind of a nutty,
12:09 and I'll tell you, a little bit oriental,
12:12 a little bit oriental, don't you think too?
12:13 A little bit, oh yeah definitely
12:14 a little bit oriental, because the sesame
12:15 gives you that flavor. Absolutely.
12:16 Now, its interesting,
12:17 I just read a report on cruciferous vegetables,
12:21 broccoli for instance is a cruciferous
12:23 vegetable and I just find this fascinating,
12:26 there's a reason that we do things
12:28 the way we do. The actual components
12:31 in broccoli that are so helpful for our health,
12:34 the Fido chemicals and the things that help
12:38 to eliminate toxins are activated
12:41 when you have a fat mixed
12:44 Now, I didn't know that.
12:46 Isn't that interesting? That's very interesting.
12:48 It's the same with your green leafy
12:50 lettuce and things of that nature.
12:51 So in other words, if you just ate a salad
12:53 with just plain broccoli or something like that
12:55 you wouldn't be getting all the Fido chemicals
12:56 and the nutrients. You would be getting
12:58 them all but they wouldn't be used as adequately
13:01 in your body with out the fat.
13:03 Isn't that interesting? Isn't that interesting?
13:05 I just think that's fascinating.
13:06 Its amazing how God makes our bodies.
13:08 Exactly, yes, beautifully and wonderfully, yes,
13:11 and so its amazing how cultures seem
13:14 to know that they need to add you know
13:16 we've always eaten salads with both
13:18 lemon and vinegar. Absolutely.
13:20 So that seems to have come for reason.
13:23 Exactly right, right.
13:24 And I do like to add a little bit of sweetener
13:27 to the salad, just maybe a tablespoon,
13:29 it is to taste but it brings up the flavors
13:32 and like I said we have so much fiber
13:34 in the salads, yes, and how I would then eat
13:38 this salad at home, yeah,
13:39 personally I would put it over a bed of lettuce.
13:42 Oh! That's nice and it's really
13:44 And I would add no more dressing
13:45 just the dressing on this pasta salad would be.
13:47 Oh yeah you can see the dressing on it.
13:49 Oh yeah, it smells very beautiful.
13:51 Would you have before we go to our next
13:53 recipe do you have a story,
13:54 another story you can share with our friends?
13:56 Oh yes. I love to.
13:58 We had a cooking seminar going on in Oregon
14:02 and met a woman at that seminar who had
14:04 breast cancer and she had decided
14:07 she was in our end had decided that
14:09 rather than following the normal procedure
14:12 for of chemotherapy and surgery extra.
14:15 Right. She decided she will try an alternative
14:17 and she chose an all raw diet.
14:20 Okay, so same as this done, exactly, exactly.
14:22 She asked me if she could come to my class
14:24 and I said, well you know we don't do all raw,
14:26 but I think you would love my class.
14:28 And she said well as soon as I get through this,
14:32 I plan on going back to eating cooked food,
14:34 but I do want to stay total vegetarian
14:37 so I would like to you know learn
14:38 to do some cooking.
14:39 How long does she go on the all raw plan?
14:41 She went on the on all raw plan
14:42 for six months and she was
14:44 from the Quaker church.
14:46 Her entire family went raw with her,
14:48 her mother, her father, her husband,
14:50 her kids as well as her sister
14:53 and her sister's husband.
14:55 Well, right during the time that she was in
14:58 my class, she came in the last night of class
15:00 with the doctor's report and she was just crying
15:03 and she said I just have to
15:04 share this with your class.
15:06 I said feel free, she showed us this report
15:09 and at the top of her, her doctor had written,
15:11 congratulations, you're cancer free.
15:14 And it was so wonderful now Jill,
15:17 I have to tell you that not only did she lose
15:20 her cancer but she had a whole list of
15:23 other things, her father reversed his diabetes
15:25 on all raw diet. Her mother reversed her
15:28 hypertension, her sister lost 40 pounds.
15:31 Oh man. Yes, and everybody was just feeling
15:35 healthier then they had ever been in their entire
15:37 life and she told me, she said as if, she said
15:39 and this isn't even the good news I said well,
15:41 what's the good news? You're thinking, what,
15:43 be cancer free and all these things.
15:44 How much better could it get?
15:45 Her two daughters who were both struggling
15:49 in school, in fact one had flunked every class
15:52 including gym, following being on the raw diet
15:56 the next year school, the high school girl that
16:01 had flunked all these classes the year before had
16:03 a 4.0. Are you serious? I am serious.
16:06 It has improved her mind
16:07 Exactly, and her sister, same thing with her
16:10 sister, her sister's report card was straight A's
16:12 with the exceptional of two B's and I said,
16:14 then I said well, what do you think about that
16:17 and she said my girls said, mom, that diet helped
16:21 our brain to clear up and made us feel better
16:24 and we could think and so you see there's this raw
16:27 food is just, it can do so much for us.
16:30 And even if you not going total raw if you
16:32 eat cooked and but you eat more raw,
16:34 more raw exactly, exactly, do you know
16:35 one anything, if you are not eating
16:36 anything raw, just eating an apple
16:37 in the morning. Exactly, going more raw,
16:40 as much as possible is a huge benefit.
16:43 Oh! That's tremendous You know the thing that
16:44 touches me about that story is that the whole
16:46 family supported her. I really like, exactly.
16:48 Isn't that wonderful? That is.
16:49 Okay, we better get go in,
16:50 what are we making next? What's on.
16:52 We gonna make a Walnut Wild Rice salad
16:54 Oh! That sounds good. Let's read that recipe
16:57 for our Walnut Wild Rice salad. For that you need.
17:19 Well, that's nice. I like we are using the honey
17:21 lemon marinade again. Yes, yes, this honey
17:24 lemon marinade is just a wonderful kind of
17:28 vinegar substitute and we use it in a lot of
17:31 our salads, in our cookbook. Absolutely.
17:34 How are you, now, what's your cookbook called?
17:35 I'm sorry. My cookbook is called The Best of
17:37 Veggies, best of veggies. Oh! That's neat.

18:11 I do love veggies, that's right.
18:13 Okay, so you're a fan of wild rice oh! Yes,
18:17 I love wild rice, yes, I developed this recipe
18:20 because I just, wild rice is probably one of my
18:23 favorite grains and so, okay, I you know
18:27 I love wild rice and I love raw vegetables.
18:29 Yes, and so again we're just taking vegetables
18:32 and cutting them up and, easy, you know its very
18:34 easy if you like more red pepper, do more
18:37 red pepper. Broccoli can be nice in this salad
18:41 and so what we're going to do is throw in our
18:44 red pepper, its nice, just dump everything
18:46 together. Just dump it like that, exactly.

19:12 Okay, that's a deal, it's a deal.
19:15 Alright, now isn't that beautiful.
19:17 Oh! It is, look at all those colors.
19:19 And do you know, you would think well doesn't
19:20 it taste like the other salad, that actually isn't
19:23 going to taste anything like the other salad
19:25 because we are using roasted walnuts which
19:28 add a flavor all of their own. Yes.
19:31 And we will put in marinade, okay,
19:34 and then we'll put these walnuts in and
19:38 I will also like to tell our friends at home
19:42 that if they're fans of pecans or if they live
19:44 in Oklahoma, yes, like I do, pecans grow there,
19:47 but they can do the same thing with pecans
19:50 just lightly roast those pecans in the oven.
19:53 Now, what temperature would you put them in the
19:55 oven on and, 350 degrees and both walnuts
19:58 and pecans just take a matter of seven minutes,
20:02 if your oven is preheated real fast, real fast,
20:05 these are very lightly roasted, they are very
20:06 lightly roasted, you don't need to even
20:07 spray your pan, you just put them on the pan
20:10 and put them in the oven. You put water on them
20:12 or salt or just cut them and dry.
20:14 No, just raw, just raw and I asked a dear friend
20:18 of mine who is a physician if he thought
20:20 that change the benefit of the walnuts
20:23 or you know other nuts that you would roast
20:25 that way because nuts are so good for you
20:27 and walnuts are especially wonderful.
20:30 And he said, no not all that light roasting
20:33 would hurt anything. Oh! Okay, so here you
20:36 have a salad again. Boy that looks good.
20:40 Doesn't that look beautiful? Oh! Yeah.
20:41 Again my favorite way to eat this is over a
20:43 bed of lettuce, yes. And it's just wonderful
20:46 like that. 'Cause you know Mary I think we eat
20:48 with our eyes? Yes, we do. If something doesn't
20:50 look good, you say I don't think I really feel
20:52 like trying that, not today, so that's good.
20:55 On being, being in the restaurant business
20:57 you have to know how to make things
20:58 appealing for people, exactly, exactly.
21:00 Otherwise they'd come in and say let me turn
21:01 around and me, and you know I was quite shocked
21:04 actually, this is really, this salad is a huge
21:07 favorite in Oklahoma, its good.
21:09 Yes, I wasn't sure they would even know what
21:11 wild rice was, because you know this kind of
21:13 Midwest thing grows in Minnesota so.
21:16 That's good, what's our last pasta salad?
21:18 Our last salad is going to be a
21:21 Chinese Coleslaw, nice. That sounds really good.
21:24 You wanna read that recipe for us for,
21:25 for the Chinese Coleslaw.
21:40 You don't necessarily need to add that sweetener.
21:45 Now, makes a salad a Chinese coleslaw salad
21:47 vs regular coleslaw? Well the, rather than
21:50 putting in mayonnaise, we're going to add the
21:52 honey lemon marinade, we're going to add a
21:54 little Ramen noodle and that kind of gives it
21:57 that little Chinese, yeah, exactly.
22:01 I like that, exactly. Do you like cabbage?
22:02 Yes, very much so, I love cabbage too.
22:05 Cabbage is a very good vegetable, is it?
22:06 Its good for you. And in fact the more cabbage
22:09 you eat studies have proven the longer you live,
22:12 isn't that, I didn't know that, where did you
22:15 get all that information. You must read a lot,
22:16 I do read a lot, I read an awful lot and
22:19 I study a lot. That's good, cabbage you know
22:22 is very, very interesting because it actually even
22:24 heal ulcers and it will do some other wonderful
22:28 things for the body, it reduces cancer risk
22:31 and helps to lower cholesterol.
22:32 Its kind of an anti-inflammatory?
22:34 It seems like I had heard that term.
22:35 Absolutely, and its extremely high,
22:38 it has almost one hundred percent,
22:40 a cup of cabbage has an extremely high amount
22:43 at least of vitamin K and its one of the few
22:46 places that we get that vitamin K and that helps
22:49 our blood to clot properly and to do other things.
22:52 I just love this salad though I'll tell you,
22:55 my husband and I, one time we were going to
22:58 Washington State to do a health and
23:01 nutrition seminar. Oh, you travel all over
23:03 doing this. Well, I did, now that I have a
23:06 restaurant I'm a little more tied down to that,
23:09 but I still do seminars occasionally.
23:11 But he was really hungry, so he said honey
23:13 let's have some lunch before we go because
23:15 we won't stop at fast food places, right,
23:18 I mean we'd take a little bit of risk there
23:21 and we were going to be doing this seminar so, yes.
23:23 I said okay. So we had two salads I fixed our
23:26 cabbage salad and I fixed us a quick pasta salad
23:29 and I had that done in about 20 minutes.
23:31 Oh! Yes, that sounds pretty good, yeah its
23:33 very good and we ate these salads and do you
23:36 know we left our house at about 2 O'clock in
23:39 the afternoon, arrived in Washington State about
23:42 oh! I think it was 7 or 8 O'clock that night and
23:45 they had prepared this big meal for us and
23:48 my husband looked at me and he said, honey,
23:50 I'm still full from lunch, and I said you know,
23:53 it's only filling, oh well its all the fiber,
23:55 you see all that fiber just it, it keeps you
23:59 feeling satiated. And so neither one of us
24:02 were hungry, we told them just to hold that meal
24:03 off until breakfast the next day.
24:06 And I am always surprised when I eat these salads
24:09 how they will keep me feeling full like that so.
24:12 That's good, yeah it's very good, so they're
24:15 quick to make but they leave you feeling, yes,
24:17 nice and full for quite a while. That's good.
24:19 Well, show us how to make this Mary,
24:21 it's just very easy, we are just going to add
24:22 our honey lemon marinade again and the cabbage
24:25 will actually start to kind of welt down the
24:28 longer the marinade is in there. Yes.
24:30 So, I do like to kind of stir it up and we didn't
24:33 put this in the recipe but you know if you like
24:35 to add a few carrots you can carrots, oh yeah,
24:38 purple cabbage is really fun, oh yeah
24:41 that's right. Yes, purple cabbage is great,
24:43 yeah, and I think I will go ahead and use all
24:46 of the marinade, okay, and then we're going
24:49 to add some Ramen noodles, okay.
24:52 And the Ramen noodles will actually start to get
24:55 a little bit soft but not totally, yes, soft.
24:57 So you still have a little bit nice crunch in them.
25:00 Yeah, you got the crunch of the Ramen noodles
25:02 and the crunch of the almonds, yeah,
25:05 we'll just break those up in here.
25:07 Why don't you help me out there Jill.
25:09 That's good. Now, that you can get a spinach
25:15 Ramen noodles in the health food store and
25:17 I really like that one quite a bit, because
25:19 its green, adds a little more color
25:21 to the salad, yes. Once we have these
25:25 in here we'll stir that up again.
25:27 You want the rest of it or not? I think we're
25:29 doing good, okay, I think we're good.
25:31 We're kind of spilling over here a little bit so.
25:34 Alright, we're gonna stir that in there
25:37 and then this is what really gives the salad
25:39 its flavor, yes, are the roasted almonds,
25:42 almonds okay. Love the roasted almond flavor,
25:45 you do them at 350 just like the walnuts?
25:47 Exactly, for seven minutes, exactly.
25:49 Now almonds will take a little bit longer to cook
25:53 then the walnuts or the pecans will.
25:55 Yes, okay, and you know when it comes to almonds
25:58 you don't want to burn them but you do want
26:01 them to be almost burned because that's when
26:04 the flavor will really come up and you will
26:06 find that they just have that, just incredible
26:10 almond flavor but if you roast them enough
26:12 then you'll never get that incredible flavor,
26:14 yes, yes. So I tell people roast them
26:16 until they're just this side of burned
26:19 and then you will. You might take a few times
26:22 to burn, till you figure that out right?
26:24 Well, approximately 12 to 15 minutes at
26:28 350 degrees, okay, and you don't need to rinse
26:31 them, okay, you just put them in there and
26:33 its also nice to let them dry for just a
26:35 little bit and then because that flavor will come
26:38 up in them, yes. Would you put in the fridge
26:40 and how long would you keep in the fridge for?
26:42 You could put it in the refrigerator and then
26:44 it will last for about 2 or 3 days, it's good,
26:47 okay and then eat it up quick.
26:50 Well, in just a moment friends we will back
