No, it's seasonal. 00:16:15.44\00:16:16.77 Exactly. 00:16:16.81\00:16:18.14 So I recommend, if you don't have the fresh corn, 00:16:18.17\00:16:19.51 obviously, to use like a frozen corn. 00:16:19.54\00:16:22.18 And the reason why is 00:16:22.21\00:16:23.55 because when you buy frozen foods, 00:16:23.58\00:16:26.18 they're flash frozen 00:16:26.21\00:16:27.55 at the peak of freshness, right? 00:16:27.58\00:16:28.92 And the second thing is that you can buy organic, 00:16:28.95\00:16:32.49 and you know, the sad part is that 00:16:32.52\00:16:34.46 corn is one of those vegetables 00:16:34.49\00:16:36.79 that basically is genetically modified 00:16:36.83\00:16:39.89 about 88% genetically modified. 00:16:39.93\00:16:42.46 So we're going to start with the corn, 00:16:42.50\00:16:43.83 we'll put that in. 00:16:43.87\00:16:45.20 Let's put some color in your life. 00:16:45.23\00:16:47.74 This is very festive. 00:16:47.77\00:16:49.10 I found Mexico... 00:16:49.14\00:16:50.47 I love Mexican cooking. 00:16:50.51\00:16:51.84 I love Mexican culture because it's so festive. 00:16:51.87\00:16:55.81 So we got our black beans and I'm going to put these in. 00:16:55.84\00:16:58.91 This is what I called the dumping recipes. 00:16:58.95\00:17:00.92 Yes, of course. 00:17:00.95\00:17:02.28 And our tomatoes, here you go and take those for me. 00:17:02.32\00:17:04.72 Yes, dump the tomatoes. 00:17:04.75\00:17:06.65 Very good. 00:17:06.69\00:17:08.02 So we have red, we have black, we have yellow. 00:17:08.06\00:17:11.19 Now, they call this red onion but it's purple in my book. 00:17:11.23\00:17:13.53 I don't know why they call it red onion, but it gives... 00:17:13.56\00:17:15.96 I know, I've been wondering that too, Chef Carin. 00:17:16.00\00:17:18.43 Why on the earth do we call it red onions? 00:17:18.47\00:17:19.90 I don't know. 00:17:19.93\00:17:21.27 Now, here we go with our green. 00:17:21.30\00:17:22.64 Oh, my, look at that color, beautiful. 00:17:22.67\00:17:25.91 All of it? 00:17:25.94\00:17:27.28 Yeah, put it all in. 00:17:27.31\00:17:28.64 I love cilantro. 00:17:28.68\00:17:30.11 So I am not Mexican, I'm Puerto Rican, 00:17:30.15\00:17:33.05 but we also use a lot of cilantro in our cuisine. 00:17:33.08\00:17:36.75 In Latino cooking, you find that a lot 00:17:36.79\00:17:38.49 and also in Asian as well. 00:17:38.52\00:17:40.19 But I find more in Indian, 00:17:40.22\00:17:42.09 but I find more in Latino culture. 00:17:42.12\00:17:43.66 This is beautiful.

What does that mean? 00:36:15.84\00:36:17.17 What are you doing with that? 00:36:17.21\00:36:18.54 And why, right? 00:36:18.57\00:36:19.91 Yeah, where is the ingredient? 00:36:19.94\00:36:21.28 Where is the dexteronice? 00:36:21.31\00:36:22.64 Okay, well, we're going to start... 00:36:22.68\00:36:24.01 Our recipe starts with three cups of cooked rice 00:36:24.05\00:36:25.38 but there's a little trick to cooking rice, 00:36:25.41\00:36:27.05 especially when we're using whole grain rice. 00:36:27.08\00:36:29.68 We're using brown rice, and the reason why is 00:36:29.72\00:36:32.09 because we've got all that fiber, 00:36:32.12\00:36:33.62 all that nutrition. 00:36:33.66\00:36:34.99 You know what happens with whole grains, 00:36:35.02\00:36:36.42 when we have white rice or white flour like wheat? 00:36:36.46\00:36:38.99 What they do is they strip the husk. 00:36:39.03\00:36:41.20 They stripped the husk anyway, 00:36:41.23\00:36:42.56 but then they take the outer part, 00:36:42.60\00:36:44.23 which is the bran away and then they take the germ, 00:36:44.27\00:36:47.54 which is where all the nutrition is. 00:36:47.57\00:36:48.90 So we're losing the fiber and the bran, 00:36:48.94\00:36:50.47 we're losing the nutrition 00:36:50.51\00:36:51.84 and then we leave just the starchy part, 00:36:51.87\00:36:55.34 which is called the endosperm. 00:36:55.38\00:36:56.71 So what we want to do 00:36:56.75\00:36:58.08 is we want to get that whole rice. 00:36:58.11\00:37:00.28 And so if we're doing the whole grain, 00:37:00.32\00:37:02.42 sometimes we can find that 00:37:02.45\00:37:03.79 it takes a little longer to cook, 00:37:03.82\00:37:05.29 or it might be a little tougher, 00:37:05.32\00:37:06.96 but we have a little trick for that. 00:37:06.99\00:37:08.36 What I do is I take my rice in a regular saute pan 00:37:08.39\00:37:11.76 and I put it in the pan and I toast it dry 00:37:11.79\00:37:14.56 until it browns a little bit and pops a little bit. 00:37:14.60\00:37:16.90 You'll hear a little popping noise. 00:37:16.93\00:37:18.63 This is not only going to make your rice cook quicker, 00:37:18.67\00:37:21.67 but it's going to be softer and fluffier. 00:37:21.70\00:37:24.31 And the other thing is, which is exciting, 00:37:24.34\00:37:26.31 it's kind of easier. 00:37:26.34\00:37:27.68 Wait for it. It's easier to digest. 00:37:27.71\00:37:29.04 It's good for your health. 00:37:29.08\00:37:30.41 Exactly. 00:37:30.45\00:37:31.78 So for that reason, we dexteronice this rice. 00:37:31.81\00:37:33.38 You can see that this brown rice 00:37:33.42\00:37:34.95 is nice and fluffy. 00:37:34.98\00:37:36.32 So I'm going to stick that right in there, 00:37:36.35\00:37:38.29 and we're going to use a little lime 00:37:38.32\00:37:41.19 because this is a cilantro lime rice, right? 00:37:41.22\00:37:43.29 That's right. 00:37:43.32\00:37:44.66 We're going to add some lime juice, some salt. 00:37:44.69\00:37:48.63 Himalayan salt. Yes, and... 00:37:48.66\00:37:51.93 Oop, I'm gonna put the cilantro in next, 00:37:51.97\00:37:54.14 and then we'll have our optional ingredient. 00:37:54.17\00:37:57.47 I have a little olive oil there and I'm going to mix that in. 00:37:57.51\00:38:00.04 At the end, we talked about olive oil not cooking it. 00:38:00.08\00:38:03.04 So you know, the flavor of olive oil is again a good... 00:38:03.08\00:38:06.82 is a delicious flavor and so sometimes I like that 00:38:06.85\00:38:08.78 little bit of moisture. 00:38:08.82\00:38:10.15 And so I'm going to mix this all in. 00:38:10.19\00:38:11.82 That looks so good. 00:38:11.85\00:38:13.46 And I'm going to add...
