how to prepare healthy food
00:00:01.36\00:00:02.73
that actually tastes good?
00:00:02.76\00:00:04.57
Well, stay tuned while
Evita Tezeno, Brenda Kemp,
00:00:04.60\00:00:06.87
and yours truly, Nyse Collins
show you just how to do it
00:00:06.94\00:00:10.51
and give you a
taste of paradise.
00:00:10.54\00:00:13.14
My name is Evita
Tezeno. And I'm Brenda Kemp.
00:00:29.86\00:00:32.66
And we're so glad
you joined us today.
00:00:32.69\00:00:34.63
Today, we have two great
recipes in store for you.
00:00:34.66\00:00:37.73
The first is gonna be mock tuna-
00:00:37.77\00:00:39.70
And mock tuna sushi rolls.
00:00:39.73\00:00:41.57
So, Evita, let's tell
them what the ingredients are
00:00:41.60\00:00:43.61
for the mock tuna.
00:00:43.64\00:00:44.97
Okay.
00:00:45.01\00:00:46.37
So let's get started cooking
or shall I say uncooking.
00:01:11.60\00:01:15.74
Yes.
00:01:15.77\00:01:17.74
Okay, let's begin
with the sunflower seeds.
00:01:17.77\00:01:20.28
Okay.
00:01:20.31\00:01:23.18
What's our next ingredient?
00:01:23.21\00:01:24.55
Our next
ingredient is the lemon juice.
00:01:24.58\00:01:27.15
Okay.
00:01:27.22\00:01:28.55
And let's do the sesame seeds.
00:01:32.42\00:01:36.62
Sesame seeds are high in calcium
00:01:36.66\00:01:38.36
and I really love those.
00:01:38.39\00:01:40.63
Okay.
00:01:40.70\00:01:42.03
And let's then
do the dulse powder.
00:01:42.06\00:01:43.97
Okay. And dulse is a seaweed.
00:01:44.00\00:01:46.33
This is a seaweed?
Yeah, it's a seaweed.
00:01:46.37\00:01:48.07
And it's high in iron. Okay.
00:01:48.10\00:01:50.31
And that's why be all-
00:01:50.34\00:01:53.14
sea vegetables need to
be introduced to the diet
00:01:53.17\00:01:55.51
because they're very high
in iodine and also in iron.
00:01:55.54\00:01:59.11
That's especially important
00:01:59.15\00:02:00.75
if you're a person
that doesn't eat seafood.
00:02:00.82\00:02:03.12
Yes. Okay.
00:02:03.15\00:02:04.49
And this is kelp
powder, also a sea vegetable.
00:02:04.52\00:02:10.23
Okay. What's next?
00:02:10.26\00:02:11.59
What's next is
we're going to blend.
00:02:11.63\00:02:15.90
One thing I
forgot to mention is that
00:02:22.24\00:02:25.34
also the sunflower seeds
had been soaked overnight.
00:02:25.37\00:02:29.18
Okay.
00:02:29.21\00:02:30.55
So let's put the salt in.
00:02:34.02\00:02:37.09
Okay.
00:02:37.12\00:02:38.45
Get that off the sides a
little bit, little mixed in.
00:02:38.49\00:02:41.22
I'm gonna add in
the salt for you.
00:02:44.26\00:02:45.96
We're using mineral
sea salt or Himalayan salt.
00:02:45.99\00:02:49.76
Himalayan sea salt? Yeah.
00:02:49.80\00:02:51.33
And has a little
pink color to it.
00:02:53.54\00:02:55.50
Most of the salt that people use
00:02:58.17\00:03:00.28
have been bleached,
00:03:00.31\00:03:01.71
so we're gonna
use Himalayan salt
00:03:01.74\00:03:03.48
and that is not bleached.
00:03:03.55\00:03:05.25
Yeah.
00:03:05.28\00:03:06.61
Okay, let's add the dill weed.
00:03:10.49\00:03:12.69
Mm-hm.
00:03:12.72\00:03:16.42
And let's blend
that little more.
00:03:16.46\00:03:18.83
Mix it a little bit there.
00:03:18.86\00:03:21.10
And get that bowl
that we used ready.
00:03:21.13\00:03:23.77
Let's mix it a little bit more.
00:03:32.21\00:03:35.18
Did we get the
dill weed blended?
00:03:35.21\00:03:36.75
Yes. That smells so good.
00:03:36.78\00:03:40.42
You notice it has
that, kind of, a fishy smell.
00:03:40.45\00:03:43.59
Yeah.
00:03:43.62\00:03:46.15
That's seafood smell. Exactly.
00:03:46.19\00:03:51.96
Okay.
00:03:51.99\00:03:53.33
Would put it in
that bowl for me?
00:03:53.40\00:03:54.73
Okay.
00:03:54.76\00:03:56.10
While I move things over,
00:03:56.13\00:03:58.93
and then we're going to
start with, add the onions.
00:03:58.97\00:04:04.54
Okay.
00:04:04.57\00:04:08.24
Let's take that
blade off. Okay. Yeah.
00:04:08.28\00:04:09.61
Oops, getting a
little messy here.
00:04:09.64\00:04:14.22
I love red onions.
00:04:14.25\00:04:16.02
And red onions always add
00:04:16.05\00:04:17.92
really good
flavor to any recipe.
00:04:17.95\00:04:23.02
Okay, let's add the red onions.
00:04:23.06\00:04:27.23
Should've got us bigger bowl.
Yes, but we'll be able to use.
00:04:27.30\00:04:31.63
Okay. And now the parsley.
00:04:31.67\00:04:34.57
And last but not
least the celery.
00:04:39.74\00:04:42.61
I don't think we can work that.
Yeah. We'll be able to use it.
00:04:42.64\00:04:46.01
Okay. Now put the parsley in.
00:04:49.78\00:04:51.42
Is this parsley?
00:04:54.72\00:04:56.19
Oh, this
parsley, and this celery.
00:04:56.22\00:04:58.39
And celery. Got you. Yeah.
00:04:58.43\00:05:00.70
Okay, now since we
got it all mixed together,
00:05:00.73\00:05:03.97
we're going to
get the sushi wraps.
00:05:04.00\00:05:10.31
Sushi wraps?
Yeah, the nori wraps.
00:05:10.34\00:05:11.94
Okay, we're ready for
that now? Yes, we are.
00:05:11.97\00:05:13.91
Let me get that.
00:05:13.98\00:05:15.31
Okay.
00:05:21.02\00:05:22.35
Why don't you tell them
the recipe for the nori wraps.
00:05:22.38\00:05:24.99
Okay.
00:05:25.02\00:05:26.35
The ingredients for
the nori wraps are...
00:05:26.45\00:05:29.82
And one recipe of the
mock tuna that we've just made.
00:05:40.84\00:05:45.61
Okay.
00:05:45.64\00:05:47.81
Well, let's cut
up the vegetables.
00:05:47.84\00:05:49.88
I have some cut,
00:05:49.91\00:05:51.25
but let's show
them how we julienne.
00:05:51.28\00:05:55.18
Mm-hm.
00:05:55.22\00:05:56.55
And what I do is I
slice the cucumber in half
00:05:56.58\00:06:01.42
and then I slice it
on the side, like this.
00:06:01.46\00:06:06.53
And I take out the seeds,
00:06:06.56\00:06:10.80
'cause the seeds add a
little more water to it.
00:06:10.87\00:06:14.04
Okay, we don't want it to be-
00:06:14.07\00:06:15.80
Yeah, we don't
want it to be soggy
00:06:15.84\00:06:18.41
and we just make it...
00:06:18.44\00:06:20.18
Slice it really, kind of, thin.
Yeah, just like little strips.
00:06:20.21\00:06:23.85
I know they have a
tool for julienning as well.
00:06:27.22\00:06:29.98
Yes, but...
00:06:30.02\00:06:31.35
If you're on a
budget, you can use a knife.
00:06:31.39\00:06:33.02
You can just
use a regular knife.
00:06:33.05\00:06:37.43
Okay. Add to that.
00:06:37.46\00:06:41.23
And then we have
some green onions.
00:06:41.26\00:06:43.90
Let's move this out of the way.
00:06:43.97\00:06:45.70
And you just cut these in half.
00:06:51.64\00:06:53.27
You take the skin off,
'cause it's a little rubbery.
00:06:53.31\00:06:57.81
Okay.
00:06:57.85\00:06:59.18
And you just cut
it down the middle,
00:06:59.21\00:07:03.69
and then cut it this way.
00:07:03.72\00:07:06.65
You're making just long strips.
00:07:06.69\00:07:08.69
So the onions are
julienned as well.
00:07:08.72\00:07:10.16
Yes. Okay.
00:07:10.23\00:07:12.36
And that's our stuffing.
00:07:12.39\00:07:14.63
And we've julienned
the carrots as well.
00:07:14.66\00:07:17.97
Okay. And you cut
the carrot in half.
00:07:18.00\00:07:20.94
Little tough here, okay.
00:07:26.44\00:07:29.48
And then lay it on the side
00:07:29.51\00:07:31.41
and just cut into little strips.
00:07:31.45\00:07:33.65
Yeah, the spinach,
00:07:33.72\00:07:35.05
I'm gonna go ahead and
get started with the spinach.
00:07:35.08\00:07:36.58
Okay. Take the ends off.
00:07:36.62\00:07:39.35
Yeah, take some of the
ends off of the spinach.
00:07:39.39\00:07:43.32
Okay.
00:07:47.73\00:07:50.47
So we have that all
prepped and ready to go.
00:07:50.50\00:07:52.73
Move that out of the way.
00:07:57.21\00:07:58.61
You know, I'm not a
big fish eater at all,
00:08:02.01\00:08:04.25
so this is gonna be
a great recipe without-
00:08:04.28\00:08:08.92
And what's so great about it
00:08:08.95\00:08:10.42
is that when you
become and eat more raw food,
00:08:10.49\00:08:15.99
you don't have to eat fish
00:08:16.02\00:08:18.69
and you don't have
to eat animal products.
00:08:18.73\00:08:21.86
There's a lot of things that
you can substitute for that.
00:08:21.90\00:08:25.20
What we're using is,
this is a rolling mat.
00:08:25.23\00:08:28.47
And you could get
it from an Asian store.
00:08:28.50\00:08:30.71
And this is nori.
This is seaweed also.
00:08:30.74\00:08:33.88
Seaweed.
00:08:33.91\00:08:35.24
And this is gonna
be our base. Okay.
00:08:35.28\00:08:38.81
I'm gonna lay the spinach down
00:08:38.85\00:08:42.75
and we'll start
closest to us, closest to you.
00:08:42.78\00:08:47.19
Okay. Here.
00:08:47.26\00:08:48.59
And we're gonna be
covering the whole-
00:08:48.62\00:08:50.13
No we're just gonna
use this part right here.
00:08:50.16\00:08:52.89
Okay.
00:08:52.93\00:08:54.43
And we have a little
small cup of water here
00:08:54.46\00:08:57.83
that we're gonna use
to seal the roll with.
00:08:57.87\00:08:59.63
So we can use all these leaves.
00:09:02.84\00:09:04.54
Yes, more
vegetables, the better.
00:09:04.57\00:09:09.21
This is packed with nutrients
and is so good for you,
00:09:09.24\00:09:13.28
so yummy.
00:09:13.31\00:09:16.99
Okay and this is
ten spinach leaves.
00:09:17.02\00:09:19.95
So we could take
some of our tuna.
00:09:19.99\00:09:22.56
So we're covering
all of the spinach.
00:09:29.43\00:09:31.13
Yes. Just laying it in here.
00:09:31.17\00:09:34.24
And then, now for the julienned.
00:09:38.91\00:09:42.08
Oh, you know what we forgot?
00:09:42.11\00:09:43.45
One of the most important
ingredients is the avocado.
00:09:43.48\00:09:46.75
Yes.
00:09:46.82\00:09:48.98
Let me go ahead
and cut that avocado.
00:09:49.02\00:09:50.39
Cut that avocado up.
00:09:50.42\00:09:53.36
You know,
Brenda, this, I remember
00:09:53.39\00:09:56.12
when we first started
out on this raw venture.
00:09:56.16\00:10:00.20
We didn't know what
to do and we just prayed
00:10:00.23\00:10:03.97
and the Lord gave us all
kind of different recipes.
00:10:04.00\00:10:08.44
Yes, He did.
00:10:08.47\00:10:09.80
Do you want to cut in chunks?
00:10:15.11\00:10:16.61
That's fine. Okay.
00:10:16.64\00:10:19.75
Let's put some
avocado. There's a few in there.
00:10:19.78\00:10:23.69
Avocado is really, it's a-
00:10:23.72\00:10:25.79
It's one of those good
fats. Those really healthy fats.
00:10:25.82\00:10:28.99
Get that out. Okay.
00:10:33.09\00:10:34.83
That's enough? Okay that's good.
00:10:34.86\00:10:37.50
Now we're gonna use this mat as-
00:10:37.57\00:10:40.27
To help us roll. Yes.
00:10:40.34\00:10:41.67
Yes, we're gonna
squeeze as we go.
00:10:41.70\00:10:43.71
This is gonna be a fat one.
00:10:53.21\00:10:56.92
But it'll be
good. Yes, it will be.
00:10:56.99\00:10:59.02
Okay.
00:11:04.96\00:11:06.29
Oops!
00:11:07.03\00:11:08.36
Looks like we broke it.
00:11:08.40\00:11:10.77
Got to put some water
in there to help seal it.
00:11:10.80\00:11:12.60
Okay and then we
roll and we seal.
00:11:12.63\00:11:15.50
And the water's
gonna help it to stay.
00:11:17.61\00:11:19.24
Yes.
00:11:19.27\00:11:20.61
And then you go.
Look how pretty that is.
00:11:20.68\00:11:22.81
And then we use
a serrated knife.
00:11:22.84\00:11:24.85
Okay, why don't you get
that plate so we could plate it?
00:11:28.42\00:11:31.15
Oh, we're gonna
dress it up real pretty.
00:11:31.19\00:11:34.29
Yes.
00:11:34.32\00:11:35.66
Look at the inside
of that, looks so good.
00:11:42.70\00:11:44.90
Stand them up.
00:11:47.67\00:11:49.00
And there you have it.
00:11:51.94\00:11:53.27
Nori sushi rolls and mock tuna.
00:11:53.91\00:11:56.64
Are you addicted?
00:12:06.69\00:12:08.29
Are you dealing with a
substance abuse, maybe?
00:12:08.32\00:12:10.99
Well, if you're
not, some of us are.
00:12:11.03\00:12:13.06
And we are
sometimes addicted to sweets.
00:12:13.09\00:12:15.36
Today, we're gonna learn
how to satisfy that sweet tooth
00:12:15.40\00:12:18.47
but get off of the addiction.
00:12:18.50\00:12:20.54
And we have our special
guest back with us today,
00:12:20.57\00:12:23.27
our guest expert Reginee.
Reginee, how's it going?
00:12:23.30\00:12:25.34
I'm doing well. Thanks. Good.
00:12:25.37\00:12:26.78
Good to have you because
this is very, very important.
00:12:26.81\00:12:29.54
I needed some help on this one
00:12:29.58\00:12:30.95
because when we
start talking about sweets,
00:12:30.98\00:12:32.68
everybody starts to go
crazy and stuff like that.
00:12:32.71\00:12:35.28
And it's like, man,
00:12:35.32\00:12:36.69
are we on a drug or
something like that.
00:12:36.72\00:12:38.22
If you start to grab
sweets out of people's diet,
00:12:38.25\00:12:40.16
they'd say, "No,
you can't do that.
00:12:40.19\00:12:42.39
Take all the food
but give me my sweets."
00:12:42.42\00:12:44.69
And it's really
serious. You know what I mean?
00:12:44.73\00:12:47.86
And what we find is that
sometimes that's even causing
00:12:47.90\00:12:50.57
quite a few problems.
00:12:50.60\00:12:52.20
And how can we
satisfy the sweet tooth,
00:12:52.23\00:12:54.70
but the question is,
00:12:54.74\00:12:56.14
what is the problem
with having a sweet tooth?
00:12:56.17\00:12:59.51
Well, I don't think
there's really a problem.
00:12:59.54\00:13:01.64
It's just how much
sweet you have, I guess.
00:13:01.68\00:13:04.68
One thing, first thing
that people think about
00:13:04.71\00:13:07.05
when they think about
sweet tooth is diabetics.
00:13:07.12\00:13:08.52
Okay.
00:13:08.55\00:13:09.88
We know, okay, sugar
does not cause diabetes,
00:13:09.92\00:13:12.19
but it does
complicate the issue greatly,
00:13:12.22\00:13:14.32
once you have that.
00:13:14.36\00:13:15.69
So we know that
already but what people might.
00:13:15.72\00:13:17.53
Thank goodness.
That's crucial. Yes, yes.
00:13:17.56\00:13:19.56
Because, you
know, a lot of times,
00:13:19.59\00:13:21.03
you eat so much
sugar, stuff like that,
00:13:21.06\00:13:22.40
you're gonna get
diabetics or whatever,
00:13:22.43\00:13:23.77
but we've learned
through our different programs
00:13:23.80\00:13:25.30
that per say, like you said,
00:13:25.33\00:13:26.67
is probably not the cause of it,
00:13:26.74\00:13:29.34
but it's related.
00:13:29.37\00:13:30.71
And once we do have it,
00:13:30.74\00:13:32.07
it actually makes
the situation worse.
00:13:32.11\00:13:33.48
Yes. So that's a
good thing to know.
00:13:33.51\00:13:35.64
But I'm so sorry
for interrupting.
00:13:35.68\00:13:37.05
You were saying
something very important,
00:13:37.08\00:13:38.41
so it doesn't cause
it, but it's related to it.
00:13:38.45\00:13:41.78
Another thing that I
think people might now know
00:13:41.82\00:13:43.92
is that it lowers
the immune system.
00:13:43.99\00:13:46.02
Let's say, you know,
00:13:46.05\00:13:47.76
you don't eat sugar
all the time, per say,
00:13:47.79\00:13:49.12
but let's say you just take
a bunch of sugar at this point,
00:13:49.16\00:13:51.56
a candy bar, soda.
00:13:51.59\00:13:53.16
Soda has a lot of sugar. Okay.
00:13:53.19\00:13:57.07
If you take that, it lowers
your immune system right away,
00:13:57.10\00:13:59.87
and it can stay
lower for several hours.
00:13:59.90\00:14:01.90
And if you continue to assault
your body with the sugar,
00:14:01.94\00:14:05.01
you're continuing to maintain
this lowered immune system.
00:14:05.04\00:14:08.24
You know what? That is so true.
00:14:08.28\00:14:10.65
Because sometime ago, you
know, I tried to stay away
00:14:10.68\00:14:13.01
from daily products
and stuff like that.
00:14:13.05\00:14:14.55
And this is a while back
where I learned, you know,
00:14:14.58\00:14:16.99
now I know that I'm
staying away from cold items,
00:14:17.02\00:14:19.02
but I was getting
like some soy ice cream
00:14:19.05\00:14:21.12
or something like that.
00:14:21.16\00:14:22.49
And I'm like, okay, it doesn't
have the fat and all that stuff
00:14:22.52\00:14:24.56
but I still get my fix,
00:14:24.59\00:14:26.33
you know what I
mean, with the sugar.
00:14:26.36\00:14:27.70
And I ate all of these bars.
00:14:27.73\00:14:29.16
It was like four in a
box or something like that.
00:14:29.20\00:14:31.30
And I ate all of
them and the next morning,
00:14:31.33\00:14:33.13
I woke up with a
terrible sore throat.
00:14:33.17\00:14:35.27
Now I hate sore throats.
00:14:35.30\00:14:36.64
I wouldn't even
wish it on my enemy.
00:14:36.71\00:14:38.04
I don't have any at
least that I know of.
00:14:38.07\00:14:40.18
But I hate sore throats
and I woke up and I was like,
00:14:40.21\00:14:42.54
man, what did I do yesterday
00:14:42.58\00:14:44.25
that would cause this situation.
00:14:44.28\00:14:45.61
Did somebody sneeze on
me or something like that?
00:14:45.65\00:14:47.12
But what I realize is,
I ate that whole thing.
00:14:47.15\00:14:49.85
And all that sugar,
probably, like you said,
00:14:49.88\00:14:52.65
it lowers your immune system.
00:14:52.69\00:14:54.56
Okay, so but
there's not only the sugar
00:14:54.59\00:14:57.36
but some people are dealing
with a serious addiction.
00:14:57.43\00:15:00.60
And I call it
possibly a legal drug.
00:15:00.63\00:15:04.07
And they even try to
show beneficial properties
00:15:04.10\00:15:07.70
and different items to it.
00:15:07.74\00:15:09.07
You know, some may be true,
00:15:09.10\00:15:10.44
but then we also
realize that some of the things,
00:15:10.51\00:15:11.84
it may cause all the problems.
00:15:11.87\00:15:13.21
And what are a lot
of people dealing with?
00:15:13.24\00:15:14.68
What kind of addiction?
00:15:14.71\00:15:16.04
Is it a drug or
something like that?
00:15:16.08\00:15:17.65
Are they using,
you know, is it legal?
00:15:17.68\00:15:19.95
But we found out it is legal.
What are we talking about?
00:15:20.02\00:15:22.78
I think you're picking
on the chocolate lovers.
00:15:22.82\00:15:24.55
Is that what
you're talking about?
00:15:24.59\00:15:25.92
You see, I
rather, you talk about
00:15:25.95\00:15:27.79
saying that
chocolate is a drug than me,
00:15:27.82\00:15:30.13
you know, so she
is the expert so-
00:15:30.16\00:15:31.96
You know, I noticed
earlier when you said,
00:15:31.99\00:15:33.83
"Don't take my sweets,"
00:15:33.90\00:15:35.23
you said it in a
female's tone of voice.
00:15:35.26\00:15:37.83
So I don't know what
you're trying to imply.
00:15:37.87\00:15:39.93
But yes, there's that
time of month or time of time
00:15:39.97\00:15:44.41
that you just feel like I
just need a little extra sweet.
00:15:44.44\00:15:46.61
And sometimes people
say I crave chocolate.
00:15:46.68\00:15:49.34
You know, sometimes, I think,
because like you said, it is,
00:15:49.38\00:15:53.28
it does have caffeine in it.
00:15:53.31\00:15:55.08
So you hit it.
00:15:55.12\00:15:56.45
So actually, it's not just
per say a craving, craving,
00:15:56.48\00:15:58.99
it's actually,
literally, an addiction.
00:15:59.02\00:16:00.96
Because once you
start using that chocolate,
00:16:00.99\00:16:03.19
because of the
caffeine that's in it, you now,
00:16:03.22\00:16:05.86
I mean, you can't
go a day without it.
00:16:05.89\00:16:07.70
And some people get really
agitated and stuff like that.
00:16:07.73\00:16:09.80
And all they need
is just a little bit-
00:16:09.83\00:16:11.17
A fix.
00:16:11.20\00:16:12.53
Their little fix.
You know what I mean?
00:16:12.57\00:16:13.94
And it looks like how sometimes
00:16:13.97\00:16:15.30
other people are dealing
with other addictions as well.
00:16:15.34\00:16:17.01
But then we get on there,
don't do this, don't drink,
00:16:17.04\00:16:19.41
don't smoke,
don't this and that.
00:16:19.44\00:16:21.18
But then you try
to take chocolate away
00:16:21.21\00:16:23.28
from some of us, and
we're ready to fight.
00:16:23.35\00:16:25.55
You know, and so
it's crucial, it's crucial
00:16:25.58\00:16:28.22
that we realize this
00:16:28.25\00:16:29.85
and we have to slowly but
surely get ourselves away.
00:16:29.88\00:16:32.62
But you know
what, does that mean
00:16:32.65\00:16:34.16
that we can't
satisfy that sweet tooth?
00:16:34.19\00:16:35.79
Oh, absolutely not.
00:16:35.82\00:16:37.43
We have the solution
for that. No, not quite.
00:16:37.46\00:16:38.93
So today we put
together a nice little
00:16:38.96\00:16:40.80
special, special
recipe for you all.
00:16:40.83\00:16:42.83
And you're gonna see here,
I call it one of my favorite.
00:16:42.86\00:16:44.77
I call it the carob hot drops.
And it's really simple to make.
00:16:44.80\00:16:48.40
All you take is...
00:16:48.44\00:16:49.77
So real quick,
00:17:11.19\00:17:12.53
what is this
thing that we're using
00:17:12.56\00:17:14.00
to a kind of
replace this chocolate?
00:17:14.03\00:17:16.36
We call it carob.
00:17:16.40\00:17:17.73
Yes and carob, I really like it.
00:17:17.77\00:17:19.67
It's lot less
sugar actually, you know,
00:17:19.70\00:17:22.67
the chocolate actually does
not taste good in it's raw form.
00:17:22.70\00:17:26.54
It's very better and
they have added a lot of sugar
00:17:26.57\00:17:29.61
to make it taste good.
00:17:29.64\00:17:31.05
Right, and you
hit that on a head.
00:17:31.08\00:17:33.21
And we're gonna have to
talk about that in one second.
00:17:33.25\00:17:35.05
But what I've done here already,
00:17:35.08\00:17:36.52
I notice you're looking at me,
what is Nyse doing over there.
00:17:36.55\00:17:39.35
We have to go ahead
00:17:39.39\00:17:40.76
and warm up the
carob chips for you,
00:17:40.79\00:17:43.66
as you see
here, the carob chips.
00:17:43.73\00:17:45.86
And so we went ahead
00:17:45.89\00:17:47.23
and we put this in
this little skillet,
00:17:47.30\00:17:49.13
put it on low
heat to get it ready
00:17:49.16\00:17:51.03
so we can get finished
with this recipe in time.
00:17:51.07\00:17:53.34
And you see it's nice and
it clumps up a little bit.
00:17:53.37\00:17:55.87
And it's good that
we're showing you this,
00:17:55.90\00:17:57.51
because this is what will happen
00:17:57.54\00:17:58.87
if you leave it too long.
00:17:58.91\00:18:00.28
So when you follow the recipe,
it'll tell you to do that,
00:18:00.31\00:18:02.21
but you have to keep
stirring it so it doesn't burn.
00:18:02.24\00:18:04.48
Then we'll take that
natural peanut butter
00:18:04.51\00:18:06.65
and we'll pour
that in there as well.
00:18:06.72\00:18:09.85
And the good thing
about this peanut butter,
00:18:09.88\00:18:12.15
the natural one, there's
no, per say, additives for it.
00:18:12.19\00:18:15.69
When you're looking for
peanut butter in the stores,
00:18:15.72\00:18:18.06
it's really simple.
00:18:18.09\00:18:19.43
It should only have peanuts
00:18:19.46\00:18:21.23
and maybe some
salt, and that's it.
00:18:21.26\00:18:23.20
A lot of times
these peanut butters
00:18:23.23\00:18:24.70
that we buy these days,
man, they got, they have sugar.
00:18:24.73\00:18:29.70
What else?
00:18:29.74\00:18:31.07
Corn syrup, and
emulsifiers, as you said.
00:18:31.11\00:18:35.51
What happened to
just taking peanuts
00:18:35.54\00:18:37.25
and grinding it up
and that's peanut butter.
00:18:37.28\00:18:39.95
So be careful when you go
shopping for peanut butter
00:18:40.02\00:18:43.28
because, these items,
will they cause problems
00:18:43.32\00:18:45.29
if we buy a lot of peanut butter
00:18:45.32\00:18:46.76
that have so many
additional ingredients?
00:18:46.79\00:18:48.59
Yes, for sure.
00:18:48.62\00:18:49.96
I think, you know,
part of the problem is
00:18:50.03\00:18:51.36
sometimes we are a little lazy,
00:18:51.39\00:18:53.29
you know, we don't
want to have to start
00:18:53.33\00:18:54.66
because the natural peanut
butter is actually separated.
00:18:54.70\00:18:57.07
And so people
might not like that.
00:18:57.10\00:18:58.93
So we have to realize that
that's the healthiest stuff,
00:18:58.97\00:19:00.77
that's the better stuff.
00:19:00.84\00:19:02.17
You know, that's okay,
just mix it up a little bit.
00:19:02.20\00:19:03.81
Put it in the refrigerator
00:19:03.84\00:19:05.17
if you want it
to stay like that.
00:19:05.21\00:19:06.81
It will stay just fine.
00:19:06.88\00:19:08.38
And then, so is real simple
00:19:08.41\00:19:10.85
and actually is very
cost effective as well.
00:19:10.88\00:19:13.08
So I'm gonna add the
rest of the ingredients.
00:19:13.11\00:19:14.45
I got some unsweetened
coconut, we use walnuts.
00:19:14.48\00:19:20.26
Walnuts look like
which organ of the body?
00:19:20.29\00:19:22.82
The brain. The
brain, so watch this.
00:19:22.86\00:19:24.63
Here's a cool
thing about this recipe.
00:19:24.66\00:19:26.43
Not only are we
satisfying the sweet tooth,
00:19:26.46\00:19:29.23
we're actually
thinking better as a result
00:19:29.26\00:19:31.63
and not thinking like, you know,
00:19:31.67\00:19:33.23
that we have an addiction
or something like that.
00:19:33.27\00:19:35.30
So we added that,
we added the coconut,
00:19:35.34\00:19:37.74
which has quite a few
vitamins and minerals,
00:19:37.77\00:19:41.18
you know, one person says,
00:19:41.21\00:19:42.54
if you get stranded on an island
00:19:42.58\00:19:43.95
and all you have is
coconut water and a coconut,
00:19:43.98\00:19:46.21
you know, to eat,
00:19:46.25\00:19:47.85
you should be fine
for a quite a bit of time
00:19:47.88\00:19:49.55
because it provides so
many vitamins and minerals.
00:19:49.58\00:19:52.49
And then the last item we'll
add here is the quick oats.
00:19:52.52\00:19:57.26
You know, I like that
because when you take in sugar,
00:19:57.33\00:20:00.90
if you take in it with fiber,
00:20:00.93\00:20:02.53
it actually slows down
the absorption of bad sugar.
00:20:02.56\00:20:05.23
So if you're gonna have sugar,
00:20:05.27\00:20:06.87
it's best to put it
with something like this,
00:20:06.94\00:20:08.90
these oats, because that
fiber is gonna slow it down.
00:20:08.94\00:20:11.91
Yeah, it is. So it
won't send a sharp peak.
00:20:11.94\00:20:14.84
Exactly.
00:20:14.88\00:20:16.21
And if you notice, as well,
we didn't really add much sugar
00:20:16.24\00:20:18.51
or anything to this.
00:20:18.55\00:20:19.88
We didn't add any sugar.
00:20:19.91\00:20:21.25
So the catch is, it's
just natural sweeteners
00:20:21.28\00:20:23.18
as you see there
from the carob as well.
00:20:23.22\00:20:26.59
So if you notice, it
gets a kind of thick.
00:20:26.62\00:20:28.99
And look at me making a mess,
00:20:29.02\00:20:30.53
but that's why we're
in the kitchen today.
00:20:30.56\00:20:32.86
I've never been to
somebody's kitchen,
00:20:32.89\00:20:34.33
they never dropped
anything on the side.
00:20:34.36\00:20:36.23
So go ahead and enjoy yourself.
00:20:36.26\00:20:37.93
You know it's
great to have the kids.
00:20:37.97\00:20:39.67
I know you've heard me
say it a million times,
00:20:39.70\00:20:41.94
have the kids
help you make this.
00:20:41.97\00:20:44.57
Okay.
00:20:44.61\00:20:45.94
Then they won't be
crying for these chocolate bars
00:20:45.97\00:20:48.08
and all these other candies
00:20:48.11\00:20:49.44
because they made it themselves.
00:20:49.48\00:20:50.98
But here's one thing,
00:20:51.01\00:20:52.35
can we compare
this to the regular one?
00:20:52.38\00:20:54.98
How would the taste be?
00:20:55.02\00:20:56.99
Personally, I
think it's just as good.
00:20:57.02\00:20:58.99
Now if you've tried carob
before and you realize that,
00:20:59.02\00:21:02.56
oh, I don't like
that, try different brands.
00:21:02.59\00:21:04.99
Different brands
tastes differently.
00:21:05.03\00:21:07.00
So you want to just
try the different ones
00:21:07.03\00:21:08.63
and see which one
you like, this brand,
00:21:08.66\00:21:10.00
I don't know what the brand is,
00:21:10.07\00:21:11.43
but you really
should try it for yourself.
00:21:11.47\00:21:13.13
This one is
really good. I like it.
00:21:13.17\00:21:14.50
You know what, you
said the kids, you know,
00:21:14.54\00:21:16.54
you want to try this on the kids
00:21:16.57\00:21:18.41
because if they like
it, you know it's good
00:21:18.44\00:21:20.88
and you've seen how
the kids eat this one.
00:21:20.91\00:21:23.11
Oh, man. They eat it up.
00:21:23.14\00:21:24.58
They never even
leave enough for me.
00:21:24.61\00:21:28.18
So when I make
it with my nephews
00:21:28.22\00:21:29.62
and nieces around,
I kind of like do it
00:21:29.65\00:21:31.89
when they leave the house
so I can have my little share
00:21:31.92\00:21:34.92
and I hide it in the
corner of the freezer
00:21:34.96\00:21:37.53
and stuff like that
because they would eat it
00:21:37.56\00:21:39.53
and they'd forget
about uncle Nyse, you know.
00:21:39.56\00:21:41.83
So go ahead and enjoy this.
00:21:41.86\00:21:44.97
And like you also
said, in comparison,
00:21:45.00\00:21:47.24
you may not have that sharp hit
00:21:47.27\00:21:49.24
because it's not
loaded with sugar,
00:21:49.27\00:21:51.34
it's not loaded with
any additional drugs.
00:21:51.37\00:21:53.68
You know, I'm
talking about caffeine,
00:21:53.71\00:21:55.04
it's just like a legal drug.
00:21:55.08\00:21:56.41
It's not loaded with
all of these other items.
00:21:56.44\00:21:58.35
And you mentioned
something that was very crucial.
00:21:58.38\00:22:00.45
You said in order to
make that chocolate taste good
00:22:00.52\00:22:03.05
and well and stuff like that,
00:22:03.08\00:22:04.52
you have to add
so many items to it.
00:22:04.55\00:22:07.19
Because in its natural
form, is chocolate sweet?
00:22:07.26\00:22:10.43
No. It's bitter.
Yeah. It's actually bitter.
00:22:10.46\00:22:12.86
So they have to add a
lot of fat and milk and sugar
00:22:12.89\00:22:16.36
and sugar and more sugar.
00:22:16.40\00:22:19.33
And as a result that's
why it gets that flavor.
00:22:19.37\00:22:22.17
But if you've ever
had a chocolate or a cocoa
00:22:22.20\00:22:24.21
and items like
that, it is not the same,
00:22:24.24\00:22:25.74
it's totally bitter.
00:22:25.77\00:22:27.11
But the cool thing
is that the carob comes-
00:22:27.18\00:22:29.28
I was just actually in
Turkey not too long ago
00:22:29.31\00:22:31.35
and I saw the carob tree.
00:22:31.38\00:22:32.71
I'm like, yay!
You know what I mean?
00:22:32.75\00:22:34.25
I was like John the Baptist
was probably eating this stuff.
00:22:34.32\00:22:36.58
So I had a good time,
of course, you can't do,
00:22:36.62\00:22:40.66
you have to
process it a little bit
00:22:40.69\00:22:42.09
but you don't have to like-
00:22:42.12\00:22:44.16
I don't want to say adulterated,
00:22:44.23\00:22:45.56
you know what I mean?
00:22:45.59\00:22:46.93
Or add on those, all
those other items as well.
00:22:46.96\00:22:49.33
Well, let's go
ahead and do this now.
00:22:49.36\00:22:51.20
Remember, it's called
carob hot drops, okay?
00:22:51.23\00:22:55.07
So, I guess, you get your share,
00:22:55.10\00:22:56.44
I get mine, and
I'm gonna drop it.
00:22:56.47\00:22:59.74
On purpose, I
said drop it like it's-
00:22:59.77\00:23:01.51
Watch it now.
00:23:01.54\00:23:02.88
All right, so I'll just drop
it because it is hot, all right.
00:23:02.91\00:23:05.98
So enjoy
yourself, enjoy yourself
00:23:06.01\00:23:09.35
and there are
different ways you can do it,
00:23:09.38\00:23:11.19
you can even add
more oats and stuff
00:23:11.22\00:23:14.62
and you can make
like a chocolate.
00:23:14.66\00:23:17.16
This will be a heavy
chocolate chip cookie.
00:23:17.23\00:23:21.53
But it won't have no chips
00:23:21.56\00:23:22.90
'cause you already
melted all of them down.
00:23:22.93\00:23:24.50
So you just put it there
and you could do as many-
00:23:24.53\00:23:28.57
I could even
make, can we make a bar,
00:23:28.60\00:23:33.07
like a carob bar?
00:23:33.11\00:23:34.44
That's a good idea.
How would that work?
00:23:34.48\00:23:35.81
Let me see it.
00:23:35.84\00:23:37.18
You just spread
it out, and then-
00:23:37.25\00:23:38.58
Spread it there,
and then, watch it now.
00:23:38.61\00:23:42.05
I could even take this to work.
00:23:42.08\00:23:43.59
Everybody pulls out
their chocolate bars,
00:23:43.62\00:23:45.22
I pull out my own.
00:23:45.25\00:23:46.59
You know what, this recipe,
00:23:46.62\00:23:47.96
per serving, only
has 4 grams of sugar.
00:23:47.99\00:23:50.16
I mean, there
are cereals out there
00:23:50.23\00:23:52.23
that claim to be very healthy.
00:23:52.26\00:23:54.00
I'm not even
talking about kids' cereals,
00:23:54.03\00:23:55.46
I'm talking about
the whole grain cereals
00:23:55.50\00:23:57.77
have way more than 4
grams of sugar per serving.
00:23:57.80\00:24:00.04
So this might be healthier
than a lot of our breakfast.
00:24:00.07\00:24:02.30
Look like that, just-
00:24:02.34\00:24:03.71
Man, can you
imagine having a dessert
00:24:03.74\00:24:05.17
that's actually
like healthy for you?
00:24:05.21\00:24:07.28
Yes. And as nutritious.
00:24:07.31\00:24:10.08
Like you said, it has the fiber
and all of those items as well.
00:24:10.15\00:24:13.25
I mean this is amazing.
00:24:13.28\00:24:14.78
The only thing-
00:24:14.82\00:24:16.15
This is actually like
dangerously good for you.
00:24:16.18\00:24:17.72
Why?
00:24:17.75\00:24:19.09
Because it's good for
you, but why is it dangerous,
00:24:19.12\00:24:21.16
because you can't
stop, it's just like,
00:24:21.19\00:24:23.63
it's the weirdest
thing I've ever experienced,
00:24:23.66\00:24:25.49
even when I was using
like chocolate bars and stuff
00:24:25.53\00:24:27.30
many years ago, I will
bite and I will eat it,
00:24:27.33\00:24:29.26
but it would like burn my
teeth because they're so sweet.
00:24:29.30\00:24:31.07
And then I'd be like,
00:24:31.10\00:24:32.43
I had enough of
that one, you know.
00:24:32.47\00:24:33.84
But this one, it's just
weird how your mind works.
00:24:33.87\00:24:36.07
You know, it's like good for you
00:24:36.10\00:24:37.84
and so you like taking like,
00:24:37.87\00:24:39.21
I need another
one and another one.
00:24:39.24\00:24:40.58
So that's why the Lord gave
us moderation and temperance.
00:24:40.61\00:24:43.24
Be tempered in all things,
00:24:43.28\00:24:44.61
especially things
that are good for us.
00:24:44.65\00:24:46.18
But hey, if you
want to celebrate,
00:24:46.21\00:24:47.82
don't tell nobody I told you,
take an extra one, all right?
00:24:47.85\00:24:51.09
But let your doctor know as well
00:24:51.12\00:24:52.45
if you're dealing with diabetes
00:24:52.49\00:24:53.86
and different
items of that nature.
00:24:53.89\00:24:55.22
Say, look, I'm gonna
switch up one or two items
00:24:55.26\00:24:57.13
and I'm gonna
try to use this item,
00:24:57.16\00:24:59.03
which doesn't have much sugar.
00:24:59.06\00:25:00.43
And you could
read the ingredients.
00:25:00.50\00:25:01.83
The only thing
you have to watch out
00:25:01.86\00:25:03.20
when you're
buying these carob chips
00:25:03.23\00:25:04.57
is that sometimes
they have a non-fat milk
00:25:04.60\00:25:06.97
or low-fat milk or
just read the ingredients.
00:25:07.04\00:25:10.11
And when you see something
that you don't understand,
00:25:10.14\00:25:12.11
there's an old saying,
when in doubt, do without-
00:25:12.14\00:25:15.21
Do without. Yours is proper.
00:25:15.24\00:25:17.08
Mine is, when in
doubt, drop it out.
00:25:17.15\00:25:19.15
So go ahead and enjoy that.
00:25:19.18\00:25:22.78
And it's really
simple on how you do it.
00:25:22.82\00:25:24.29
People say, should you eat
it right now when it's hot.
00:25:24.32\00:25:25.72
What you can,
you just take that,
00:25:25.75\00:25:27.46
you put that in the
fridge, and it'll be ready,
00:25:27.49\00:25:29.49
You can eat hot.
00:25:29.52\00:25:30.86
As a matter of fact, do we
have some already prepared?
00:25:30.93\00:25:32.26
Yes. Right here in the fridge.
00:25:32.29\00:25:33.63
All right, so she's
gonna go to the fridge
00:25:33.66\00:25:35.00
and get us some of those items,
at least the finished product,
00:25:35.03\00:25:38.23
and this is finished already.
00:25:38.27\00:25:39.60
You can eat it just like that.
00:25:39.63\00:25:41.60
So if you need a
last minute dessert
00:25:41.64\00:25:43.20
or something of that nature,
00:25:43.24\00:25:44.67
then go ahead
and you can do this.
00:25:44.71\00:25:46.11
And here is the carob hot drops.
00:25:46.14\00:25:49.51
It was dropped hot,
but now it comes out cold.
00:25:49.54\00:25:52.25
And I'm little tempted.
00:25:52.28\00:25:54.58
She wasn't looking this,
00:25:54.62\00:25:55.95
so I'll just hold a
little one here on this side.
00:25:55.98\00:25:59.22
But these are amazing, amazing.
00:25:59.25\00:26:01.69
And it's almost my mealtime,
00:26:01.72\00:26:03.12
so I'm gonna go ahead
and hold on to this one here.
00:26:03.16\00:26:05.43
You know what?
00:26:05.46\00:26:06.80
Something that you said earlier
00:26:06.83\00:26:08.16
while you go ahead and
sneak that into your mouth,
00:26:08.20\00:26:09.90
you said you used to
eat those chocolate bars
00:26:09.93\00:26:13.27
and you'd feel full.
00:26:13.34\00:26:14.67
That's another
problem with sugar.
00:26:14.70\00:26:16.04
The problem with sugar is that
00:26:16.07\00:26:17.41
we take in high
amount of calories
00:26:17.44\00:26:18.97
and then we feel full,
00:26:19.01\00:26:20.38
but we don't have the nutrition.
00:26:20.41\00:26:21.74
Let's say we take
it into through sugar,
00:26:21.78\00:26:23.11
like soda sugar or
juices or candies or desserts,
00:26:23.14\00:26:28.25
we're getting a
high amount of calories
00:26:28.28\00:26:30.69
and a low amount of nutrients.
00:26:30.72\00:26:32.25
So we feel full on
something that's not nutritious
00:26:32.29\00:26:35.49
and then we
don't have, you know-
00:26:35.52\00:26:38.29
Right, nothing to back it up.
00:26:38.33\00:26:40.43
And that's crucial as well
00:26:40.50\00:26:41.83
because the more
sugar you take in,
00:26:41.86\00:26:43.77
now people say, well,
I don't eat fatty foods
00:26:43.80\00:26:45.73
and all of these items.
00:26:45.77\00:26:47.14
Right, it's calories. Yeah.
00:26:47.17\00:26:48.50
The more sugar you take
in, the more calories you add.
00:26:48.54\00:26:50.01
That goes ahead and turns
into glucose and glycogen.
00:26:50.04\00:26:53.24
That's one step away from fat.
00:26:53.27\00:26:54.98
So then as a result,
00:26:55.01\00:26:56.64
you may not be
eating a lot of fatty foods.
00:26:56.68\00:26:58.51
But if you're
using a lot of foods
00:26:58.55\00:26:59.88
that have a lot of sugar in
it, then you start to wonder
00:26:59.91\00:27:02.95
why you're adding
on extra blessings.
00:27:02.98\00:27:04.42
You know what I mean?
00:27:04.45\00:27:05.79
You're like, oh, I'm
over blessed today and-
00:27:05.82\00:27:07.16
Well, because it
boils down to calories.
00:27:07.19\00:27:09.62
Not that, per
say, it's calories,
00:27:09.66\00:27:11.66
I think it's
about 3,500 calories
00:27:11.69\00:27:14.56
plus what you need
will add on a pound of fat.
00:27:14.60\00:27:17.60
It doesn't matter
if it comes from fat,
00:27:17.63\00:27:18.97
doesn't matter if
it comes from carbs,
00:27:19.00\00:27:20.34
doesn't matter if it comes
from sugar, doesn't matter.
00:27:20.37\00:27:21.90
Calories are calories
00:27:21.94\00:27:23.27
and you're
getting a lot of calories
00:27:23.30\00:27:24.64
from some of these
other high sugar type items.
00:27:24.67\00:27:27.48
And with 4 grams
of sugar per serving,
00:27:27.51\00:27:29.08
that's just a drop.
00:27:29.11\00:27:30.45
You can't beat that.
00:27:30.48\00:27:31.81
So we satisfied our sweet tooth.
00:27:31.85\00:27:33.18
Now we don't have to
go run for like 20 miles
00:27:33.21\00:27:34.65
to burn off all of the fat
we just added on and stuff.
00:27:34.68\00:27:37.95
And you can enjoy
yourself and no guilt.
00:27:37.99\00:27:41.36
I call this in a crazy
way, you know, lots of people,
00:27:41.39\00:27:44.13
I say, when you eat like this,
00:27:44.16\00:27:45.49
it is almost
liking eating ecstasy.
00:27:45.53\00:27:46.90
They say why-
00:27:46.93\00:27:48.26
Not the drug or anything
because eating is good for you.
00:27:48.30\00:27:50.97
It tastes good and
it's actually helpful.
00:27:51.00\00:27:53.77
So you don't have to
worry. Go ahead and try it.
00:27:53.84\00:27:55.70
Enjoy yourself.
00:27:55.74\00:27:57.11
