Welcome back to Guatemala.
00:00:09.44\00:00:10.84
And behind me, you can
see the Santa Catalina Arch
00:00:10.87\00:00:14.28
that was built back
in the 17th century.
00:00:14.31\00:00:16.75
And behind it, you
can see the volcano
00:00:16.78\00:00:19.15
coming clear with
the clouds on the top.
00:00:19.18\00:00:21.42
Well next up, we're gonna
go to the Mission 360 Kitchen
00:00:21.45\00:00:24.29
to learn how to
make cassava croquettes.
00:00:24.32\00:00:28.26
Welcome to our
Mission 360 Kitchen.
00:00:28.29\00:00:30.73
We like to think of our
world as a global neighborhood.
00:00:30.76\00:00:33.46
And so we're going to
introduce a recipe to you today
00:00:33.50\00:00:36.33
from my friend who is originally
00:00:36.36\00:00:38.93
from Dominican Republic.
00:00:38.97\00:00:40.87
Now some people
argue a little bit
00:00:40.90\00:00:42.64
about where
cassava originates from.
00:00:42.67\00:00:45.97
Some people say El Salvador.
00:00:46.01\00:00:47.91
Sometimes the people
in Portugal claim that
00:00:47.94\00:00:51.05
they're originators,
but actually they probably
00:00:51.08\00:00:54.45
got it from one of
the Caribbean countries
00:00:54.48\00:00:56.99
and took it back.
00:00:57.02\00:00:58.35
I didn't know
that. But we'll see...
00:00:58.39\00:01:00.89
We're going to
make a recipe called
00:01:00.92\00:01:02.62
cassava croquettes today.
00:01:02.66\00:01:04.93
And do you wanna tell us
what the ingredients are?
00:01:04.96\00:01:07.23
Yes. Okay.
00:01:07.26\00:01:08.60
Okay.
00:01:18.17\00:01:19.51
Sometimes it's hard to know
00:01:19.54\00:01:21.04
about how much a
pound of something is.
00:01:21.08\00:01:24.28
But a pound of
cassava is about this size.
00:01:24.31\00:01:27.78
And you might be
wondering how to handle it.
00:01:27.82\00:01:31.75
I struggled a
little bit at first
00:01:31.79\00:01:33.49
'cause I just had
never tried it before.
00:01:33.52\00:01:36.02
But all you do is you
take a regular vegetable peeler
00:01:36.06\00:01:38.76
and you just peel off
the skin on the outside.
00:01:38.79\00:01:41.56
Now you might
be able to see that
00:01:41.60\00:01:43.13
the inside there is
a little bit lavender.
00:01:43.16\00:01:45.73
So if you were to
do this and think,
00:01:45.77\00:01:47.94
"Oh, I'll prep
this ahead of time
00:01:47.97\00:01:49.70
and I'll come back to it later."
00:01:49.74\00:01:51.51
If you let too much time go by,
00:01:51.54\00:01:53.34
it's probably
all this white part
00:01:53.38\00:01:55.14
is probably going to
turn pink or lavender.
00:01:55.18\00:01:58.01
So if you want to
make this recipe ahead,
00:01:58.05\00:02:00.58
make the whole thing ahead,
and then just reheat it later.
00:02:00.62\00:02:04.85
Now cassava is very dense.
00:02:04.89\00:02:07.52
So the easiest way to cut it
is to just take off the ends,
00:02:07.56\00:02:11.79
cut them into rounds,
just slice them into rounds,
00:02:11.83\00:02:14.83
and then cut them
again maybe into quarters.
00:02:14.86\00:02:17.93
Then you can put that
into the food processor.
00:02:17.97\00:02:20.74
And it looks like this.
00:02:20.77\00:02:22.24
Kayla, can you show
what that looks like?
00:02:22.27\00:02:24.27
It looks kind of like
parmesan cheese or something.
00:02:24.31\00:02:27.88
It's very moist looking. Yeah.
00:02:27.91\00:02:31.48
Textured. And I
found out in trying it.
00:02:31.51\00:02:34.55
I found out that
the finer the better.
00:02:34.58\00:02:36.58
So we want it to
be kind of mealy.
00:02:36.62\00:02:38.72
So let's add our
other ingredients
00:02:38.75\00:02:40.12
in it, Kayla, and
give it a good stir.
00:02:40.16\00:02:43.19
I'm gonna start with the egg
00:02:43.22\00:02:44.56
here, just get that.
00:02:44.59\00:02:49.76
I'll have anise
00:02:49.80\00:02:54.40
and just a bit of salt.
00:02:54.44\00:02:56.50
And you're
definitely gonna wanna
00:02:56.54\00:02:57.87
put some seasoning in it
00:02:57.91\00:02:59.24
because cassava by itself
doesn't have a lot of flavor.
00:02:59.27\00:03:02.08
So definitely add a little salt
00:03:02.11\00:03:04.75
unless that is
a problem for you.
00:03:04.78\00:03:06.65
And the aniseed gives it some...
00:03:06.68\00:03:09.98
It's different.
It's kind of exotic.
00:03:10.02\00:03:11.45
It's not a common seasoning.
00:03:11.49\00:03:12.82
I'm not a licorice fan,
00:03:12.85\00:03:14.19
but it kind of is
a hint of licorice,
00:03:14.22\00:03:16.16
but it is very
good in this recipe.
00:03:16.19\00:03:18.93
Could you play around
with the seasoning to a degree?
00:03:18.96\00:03:20.76
I definitely think you could.
00:03:20.80\00:03:22.13
I think if you like
oregano, go for oregano.
00:03:22.16\00:03:25.23
If you like
celery salt, try that.
00:03:25.27\00:03:27.50
Okay.
00:03:27.54\00:03:28.87
I think you could
probably try garlic
00:03:28.90\00:03:30.24
or whatever you have.
00:03:30.27\00:03:31.61
If you're resourceful cook,
00:03:31.64\00:03:32.97
you just use
whatever in your kitchen.
00:03:33.01\00:03:34.54
Yes. Looks good.
00:03:34.58\00:03:36.71
So it looks like
it's all mixed up.
00:03:36.75\00:03:38.58
Okay.
00:03:38.61\00:03:40.35
Now this is not a mixture
00:03:40.38\00:03:42.12
that sticks
together really easily.
00:03:42.15\00:03:43.79
So we're going to
make them kind of small.
00:03:43.82\00:03:46.49
We're gonna use this
small ice cream scoop.
00:03:46.52\00:03:48.39
I'm gonna just show
you about that much.
00:03:48.42\00:03:51.66
Just small.
00:03:51.69\00:03:53.03
And you put it in your hand
00:03:53.06\00:03:55.10
and shape it into
kind of an oval like that,
00:03:55.13\00:03:58.67
and then just
drop it into the oil.
00:03:58.70\00:04:01.90
Okay. Okay. You wanna try?
00:04:01.94\00:04:03.41
Yes.
00:04:03.44\00:04:06.37
And we're gonna let that fry
for maybe seven minutes or so.
00:04:06.41\00:04:11.35
And we'll just
keep an eye on it.
00:04:11.38\00:04:13.35
Yeah, that looks great.
00:04:13.38\00:04:14.85
And then when it
starts to look like
00:04:14.88\00:04:16.22
it might be getting brown
00:04:16.25\00:04:18.15
around the edges
and we can turn them.
00:04:18.19\00:04:22.92
Now we do have a
lot of oil in the pan.
00:04:22.96\00:04:24.89
So this is not a
recipe that you'd make often,
00:04:24.93\00:04:27.60
but we will also
drain that oil a little bit
00:04:27.63\00:04:30.13
and we will put that
on a paper towel over here
00:04:30.17\00:04:32.47
so that can absorb
some of the excess oil.
00:04:32.50\00:04:36.27
So we're just gonna continue
on until our pan is full.
00:04:36.30\00:04:38.91
I'm trying not to break them.
00:04:46.75\00:04:50.69
You make it the first time.
00:04:50.72\00:04:52.05
And the second time is
a lot easier, believe me.
00:04:52.09\00:04:54.42
Okay.
00:04:54.46\00:04:57.23
The first time I tried it,
00:04:57.26\00:04:58.59
I thought, "Oh, this
just can't be right."
00:04:58.63\00:05:00.70
But it actually turned out okay.
00:05:00.73\00:05:02.26
I've done it several times since
00:05:02.30\00:05:04.47
and it goes much faster
the next time you make it.
00:05:04.50\00:05:06.84
Just been wet though. It's what?
00:05:10.97\00:05:13.61
It's very wet, is
that all that will be okay?
00:05:13.64\00:05:14.98
Yeah.
00:05:15.01\00:05:16.34
Yeah, it's the yuca it
has a lot of moisture in it.
00:05:16.38\00:05:19.88
So we'll just keep at
this until we've got a panful.
00:05:19.91\00:05:22.35
So when these are done,
we'll come back and show you
00:05:26.92\00:05:28.92
what they look like
when they're ready to eat.
00:05:28.96\00:05:30.49
Okay, our cassava
croquettes are done
00:05:35.56\00:05:38.53
so I'm gonna lift
these out one at a time
00:05:38.57\00:05:41.87
and let them drain.
00:05:41.90\00:05:43.57
Now while you do that,
00:05:43.61\00:05:44.94
I noticed you were
calling them yuca and cassava.
00:05:44.97\00:05:47.38
I know. I sometimes do that.
00:05:47.41\00:05:49.84
Which I've also heard that
they can be called mandioca.
00:05:49.88\00:05:52.41
And then if you dry them
and turn them into a powder,
00:05:52.45\00:05:54.28
sometimes it's called tapioca.
00:05:54.32\00:05:56.48
Well, we all
know what tapioca is.
00:05:56.52\00:05:58.15
My mom uses it a lot.
00:05:58.19\00:06:00.59
So a lot of
names from one plant.
00:06:00.62\00:06:03.16
Well, no wonder we
get confused sometime.
00:06:03.19\00:06:06.19
Well, these are very hot
00:06:06.23\00:06:07.63
when they first
come out of the pan
00:06:07.66\00:06:09.03
as you can imagine
because it's hot oil.
00:06:09.06\00:06:11.00
So before we try these,
00:06:11.03\00:06:12.70
we're gonna let
these cool a little bit
00:06:12.73\00:06:14.34
and also drain
on this paper towel.
00:06:14.37\00:06:17.77
Set it first.
00:06:17.81\00:06:19.14
But it smells good. It does.
00:06:19.17\00:06:20.98
It looks almost
like a fried plantain.
00:06:21.01\00:06:24.41
I can't wait to try these.
00:06:24.45\00:06:26.05
Yeah, and I think
you'll be surprised
00:06:26.08\00:06:28.18
at the taste of the anise.
00:06:28.22\00:06:29.68
Okay, we'll come
back in a few minutes
00:06:37.79\00:06:39.13
and show you what this is like.
00:06:39.16\00:06:43.73
Are they cool
enough? They look about done.
00:06:43.77\00:06:45.73
Well, let's try. Okay.
00:06:45.77\00:06:47.64
Just stab it and before
00:06:47.67\00:06:49.00
we put it onto
our serving platter.
00:06:49.04\00:06:51.14
Let's just give
it a little taste
00:06:51.17\00:06:52.51
and make sure they're okay.
00:06:52.54\00:06:53.88
Nice and crispy. They are good.
00:06:58.15\00:06:59.75
Really good.
00:06:59.78\00:07:01.22
It's kind of like a sweet potato
00:07:01.25\00:07:03.12
in a way with our anise in it.
00:07:03.15\00:07:05.52
Kind of a cross
between a sweet potato
00:07:05.55\00:07:07.42
and a white potato.
00:07:07.46\00:07:10.53
Anyway, they're good.
00:07:10.56\00:07:11.89
I think our
guests will be pleased.
00:07:11.93\00:07:13.90
So I hope you don't
feel too intimidated
00:07:13.93\00:07:15.86
and you'll give cassava a try.
00:07:15.90\00:07:19.53
Next, we traveled to
the Island of Principe
00:07:19.57\00:07:21.57
in West Africa, to
meet some young people
00:07:21.60\00:07:24.24
who are facing challenges
00:07:24.27\00:07:25.77
as they endeavor to
share their love of Jesus.
00:07:25.81\00:07:27.84
Principe is a
magnificent lost world
00:07:32.71\00:07:35.45
with untouched beaches,
greener than green forests,
00:07:35.48\00:07:39.02
and a small yet
welcoming population.
00:07:39.05\00:07:41.59
This is truly an
ecological sanctuary
00:07:41.62\00:07:44.13
for the handful of tourists
00:07:44.16\00:07:45.49
who visit this remote
island in Sao Tome and Principe.
00:07:45.53\00:07:49.46
There are many activities here
for guests and locals to enjoy.
00:07:49.50\00:07:52.50
Relaxing beaches,
jungle exploration, snorkeling,
00:07:52.53\00:07:55.87
fishing, bird watching,
and other fun adventures.
00:07:55.90\00:07:59.27
Surprisingly,
Adventist youth in Principe
00:07:59.31\00:08:02.11
decided to skip their
summer vacation in paradise.
00:08:02.14\00:08:05.15
Instead, they gave their time
to serve people in a difficult
00:08:05.18\00:08:08.52
to access region of the island.
00:08:08.55\00:08:10.49
This group is Mission Caleb,
they went to Villa Bela Vista,
00:08:10.52\00:08:14.06
the village selected
for their summer project.
00:08:14.09\00:08:16.76
There are no paved roads
00:08:16.79\00:08:18.36
and the team traveled carefully
through treacherous terrain.
00:08:18.39\00:08:21.40
Inspired by Caleb's
courage in the Bible,
00:08:21.43\00:08:23.90
these young men and women
00:08:23.93\00:08:25.27
desire to have that
same fearless spirit,
00:08:25.30\00:08:27.97
so they call
themselves the Caleb's.
00:08:28.00\00:08:30.61
When the Caleb's first
surveyed the community,
00:08:30.64\00:08:32.57
they found many people in need,
00:08:32.61\00:08:34.64
so the young men
began working to clear
00:08:34.68\00:08:36.64
access to people's houses.
00:08:36.68\00:08:38.05
The young women did house chores
00:08:41.75\00:08:43.18
and cleaned up the walkways.
00:08:43.22\00:08:44.55
The group also visited
00:08:48.79\00:08:50.13
the sick bringing
hope and food supplies.
00:08:50.16\00:08:53.06
In this remote area,
00:08:53.09\00:08:54.43
some villagers struggled
to survive on their own.
00:08:54.46\00:08:56.73
The Caleb's unselfish
acts of service, kindness,
00:09:03.67\00:09:07.24
and compassion demonstrated
their Christ like love.
00:09:07.28\00:09:11.21
Soon they captured
the villager's attention
00:09:11.25\00:09:13.85
and people began to open up.
00:09:13.88\00:09:17.42
I thought there was no
solution for me anymore.
00:09:17.45\00:09:21.49
After I lost my son,
I thought I should die.
00:09:21.52\00:09:26.73
When the Caleb's came over,
00:09:26.76\00:09:28.46
the pastor invited
us to go to church.
00:09:28.50\00:09:32.03
So we accepted Jesus here,
00:09:32.07\00:09:35.37
and then went to
church in the city.
00:09:35.40\00:09:38.31
Then we got baptized.
00:09:38.34\00:09:41.64
The Caleb's
could not have imagined
00:09:41.68\00:09:43.18
how God would
bless their efforts.
00:09:43.21\00:09:45.38
By giving up their
summer in paradise,
00:09:45.41\00:09:47.62
God was able to reach the
people of Villa Bela Vista.

Villagers asked questions
and requested Bible studies.
00:09:51.25\00:09:54.39
Others attended
the special meetings
00:09:54.42\00:09:56.12
hosted in the village.
00:09:56.16\00:09:57.49
Today the main
congregation plans
00:09:57.53\00:09:59.29
to build a new
church in this village
00:09:59.33\00:10:01.10
because many
have accepted Jesus.
00:10:01.13\00:10:02.90
Each summer thousands
of Mission Caleb youth
00:10:08.50\00:10:10.84
accept the
challenge to show compassion
00:10:10.87\00:10:12.97
and creatively
serve all over the world.
00:10:13.01\00:10:15.94
Many times the goal is
to establish new groups
00:10:15.98\00:10:18.38
of believers in unentered areas.
00:10:18.41\00:10:20.98
God is using young
people in Sao Tome and Principe
00:10:21.02\00:10:24.09
and all over the world.
00:10:24.12\00:10:25.75
How can He use you?
00:10:25.79\00:10:27.12
Well, thank you so
much for joining us
00:10:40.70\00:10:42.37
on today's program.
00:10:42.40\00:10:43.97
And I hope that
you've been inspired
00:10:44.01\00:10:45.37
by our 360 view of
mission around the world.
00:10:45.41\00:10:48.88
And I also hope that
you've been challenged
00:10:48.91\00:10:50.71
by that view of mission
00:10:50.75\00:10:52.21
because although
wonderful things are happening,
00:10:52.25\00:10:54.62
we still have many
challenges that are facing us.
00:10:54.65\00:10:56.99
And I wanna thank you
00:10:57.02\00:10:58.35
for your personal
involvement in mission,
00:10:58.39\00:11:01.19
for your
contributions to global mission
00:11:01.22\00:11:03.66
and to the mission offerings,
00:11:03.69\00:11:05.43
and also for your
continuing prayers
00:11:05.46\00:11:07.53
that do make a difference.
00:11:07.56\00:11:09.60
