My name is Evita Tezeno.
00:00:32.83\00:00:35.23
And can you believe

00:00:35.26\00:00:39.60

so just keep me in prayer.
00:00:59.12\00:01:03.09
This season is going to be
wonderful delicious recipes.
00:01:03.12\00:01:06.80
And today, I'm going to share
with you a snack food recipe
00:01:06.83\00:01:11.67
and we all love snacks,
00:01:11.70\00:01:13.64
but a lot of the
commercial stacks
00:01:13.67\00:01:15.27
that are on the market...
00:01:15.30\00:01:16.67
that are in the market now
00:01:16.71\00:01:18.51
are loaded with so
many different chemicals.
00:01:18.54\00:01:21.31
It is really junk food
00:01:21.34\00:01:24.01
and it's not good for our body.
00:01:24.05\00:01:26.05
But today, we are
going to do a popcorn.
00:01:26.08\00:01:30.35
Now you saying,
"Evita, we're doing,
00:01:30.39\00:01:33.02
this is a raw food segment,
00:01:33.05\00:01:35.56
we're doing popcorn?"
00:01:35.59\00:01:36.93
Yes, we are doing
cauliflower popcorn
00:01:36.96\00:01:40.93
and let's look at the recipe.
00:01:40.96\00:01:42.86
This cauliflower
this is cauliflower
00:02:19.73\00:02:22.00
and it is wonderful.
00:02:22.04\00:02:23.81
Before I started
eating more raw in my diet,
00:02:23.84\00:02:26.94
I could not even
stand raw cauliflower,
00:02:26.98\00:02:29.98
I had to have it cooked,
00:02:30.01\00:02:32.21
smothered with butter and
cheese and all that stuff.
00:02:32.25\00:02:37.02
But I started
implementing more raw in my diet
00:02:37.05\00:02:41.46
and my taste buds changed.
00:02:41.49\00:02:44.06
So, if you don't
like a certain vegetable
00:02:44.09\00:02:47.80
or you like tons of things,
00:02:47.83\00:02:50.17
I would suggest for you
00:02:50.20\00:02:52.20
to just start
eating a little more raw
00:02:52.23\00:02:54.70
and your taste buds will change.
00:02:54.74\00:02:56.77
It's a blessing. It
is definitely a blessing.
00:02:56.81\00:03:00.48
And, so I'm going to show
you how to cut up a cauliflower
00:03:00.51\00:03:04.15
and it's simply easy,
00:03:04.18\00:03:06.65
you just start
removing the leaves
00:03:06.68\00:03:12.29
from the base
of the cauliflower.
00:03:12.32\00:03:18.83
And one thing in
having a raw kitchen
00:03:18.86\00:03:24.37
or eating more raw foods
00:03:24.40\00:03:26.37
you need to have good utensils.
00:03:26.40\00:03:29.70
A sharp knife,
00:03:29.74\00:03:31.91
a really good chopping board,
00:03:31.94\00:03:38.38
a good blender
would be really good,
00:03:38.41\00:03:41.88
and I suggest you
should have a Vitamix,
00:03:41.92\00:03:45.75
that's a real good blender,
00:03:45.79\00:03:48.72
it has a lot of power.
00:03:48.76\00:03:50.43
And today we're
using a dehydrator.
00:03:53.76\00:03:58.60
The dehydrator that I'm
using is Excalibur dehydrator,
00:03:58.63\00:04:02.60
and that's the one
I really, really like.
00:04:02.64\00:04:05.51
I like it
because it's a workhorse.
00:04:05.54\00:04:09.14
So what I'm going to
do with a cauliflower
00:04:09.18\00:04:11.48
is I am going
to just cut them up
00:04:11.51\00:04:15.15
in large pieces.
00:04:15.18\00:04:18.55
Now, it depends on
00:04:18.59\00:04:21.22
if you're going to
either dehydrate these
00:04:21.26\00:04:27.36
or you going to keep them fresh.
00:04:27.40\00:04:30.37
Now, if you're
going to keep them fresh
00:04:30.40\00:04:32.40
and eat the cauliflower
popcorn just like this
00:04:32.43\00:04:35.67
without dehydrating,
00:04:35.70\00:04:37.14
I say you can cut them
00:04:37.17\00:04:38.51
in smaller bite
size pieces like this,
00:04:38.54\00:04:41.38
but if you're
going to dehydrate them,
00:04:41.41\00:04:43.35
it shrinks almost half the size
00:04:43.38\00:04:46.21
so keep them about this size.
00:04:46.25\00:04:49.82
So what we're doing
00:04:49.85\00:04:51.19
is cutting up the
cauliflower like so.
00:04:51.22\00:04:56.83
And cauliflower is loaded
00:04:56.86\00:05:01.16
with so many different nutrients
00:05:01.20\00:05:03.63
and I call it the...
00:05:03.67\00:05:10.91
one of the best
secrets that we can eat.
00:05:10.94\00:05:13.98
It is said to have some good
00:05:14.01\00:05:18.91
cancer fighting
elements in it as well,
00:05:18.95\00:05:22.48
so, you know, when I
talk about eating the rainbow,
00:05:22.52\00:05:26.59
this is how you can get
the white color in your diet
00:05:26.62\00:05:30.43
because, you know, we have red,
we have purple, we have green,
00:05:30.46\00:05:35.23
and this we don't
have a lot of white food
00:05:35.26\00:05:38.17
in the vegetable kingdom
00:05:38.20\00:05:39.87
and this is one way we
can get a white vegetable
00:05:39.90\00:05:43.10
which is loaded and
is good on digestion,
00:05:43.14\00:05:46.47
it's just an amazing vegetable
00:05:46.51\00:05:48.71
that we need to
implement in our diet.
00:05:48.74\00:05:51.38
So in a bowl
00:05:51.41\00:05:56.58
what we're going to do
00:05:56.62\00:05:57.95
is we're going to place
the wet ingredients first.
00:05:57.99\00:06:02.12
So I have some water...
00:06:02.16\00:06:05.59
and I have some olive oil
00:06:08.90\00:06:10.93
and usually what I do is I use,
00:06:10.97\00:06:14.04
I like to use
cold press olive oil
00:06:14.07\00:06:17.14
because it's pressed,
00:06:17.17\00:06:19.24
it's not chemically extracted,
00:06:19.27\00:06:21.18
so that's a little better
00:06:21.21\00:06:23.21
because
co-press is just pressed,
00:06:23.24\00:06:26.45
they press the olives
and get the olive oil out.
00:06:26.48\00:06:31.02
And I'm using tahini.
00:06:31.05\00:06:32.82
Tahini is sesame seed butter.
00:06:32.85\00:06:35.99
So it's sesame
seeds ground into a paste
00:06:36.02\00:06:39.89
and it's not like peanut
butter it's not, you know,
00:06:39.93\00:06:43.87
you don't want to
spread it on toast
00:06:43.90\00:06:45.23
and some people do like it,
00:06:45.27\00:06:46.60
it has a kind of grassy taste,
00:06:46.63\00:06:49.00
but it has, is
loaded with B vitamins
00:06:49.04\00:06:52.01
and very good for you.
00:06:52.04\00:06:54.74
And when I'm making food,
00:06:54.78\00:06:56.64
I kind of look at all
the ingredients and say,
00:06:56.68\00:06:59.55
"So what does this have in
it that's good for my body?
00:06:59.58\00:07:03.05
And what does this have?
00:07:03.08\00:07:04.95
And what can this do for this
and what can this do for that."
00:07:04.99\00:07:10.49
So that's how I analyze it
00:07:10.53\00:07:12.56
and, you know, we've
heard the saying that it says,
00:07:12.59\00:07:15.56
"Let thy food be thy medicine
00:07:15.60\00:07:17.30
and let thy
medicine be thy food."
00:07:17.33\00:07:19.93
The Lord has given us
00:07:19.97\00:07:21.30
so many great
properties in vegetable,
00:07:21.34\00:07:24.47
fruit and vegetable kingdom
00:07:24.51\00:07:26.51
that we have a bounty
of wonderful deliciousness
00:07:26.54\00:07:31.05
that we can pick from.
00:07:31.08\00:07:33.72
So this is the wet ingredients
00:07:33.75\00:07:35.68
and what I'm going
to do is take a whisk
00:07:35.72\00:07:37.62
and just whisk it all up,
00:07:37.65\00:07:41.96
so it's all mixed together.
00:07:41.99\00:07:45.69
Put the maple syrup in.
00:07:49.10\00:07:54.04
Now, for the dry ingredients.
00:07:54.07\00:07:56.20
We have yeast flakes,
00:07:56.24\00:07:58.64
which give it that
kind of cheesy flavor,
00:07:58.67\00:08:02.51
onion powder, and I'm
using onion powder this time
00:08:02.54\00:08:04.91
because if we would blend
it up and use fresh onion,
00:08:04.95\00:08:10.22
it's kind of overpowering.
00:08:10.25\00:08:12.22
So we want to just a
hint taste of the onion
00:08:12.25\00:08:15.52
so we're using the
onion powder this time.
00:08:15.56\00:08:19.09
And I'm using
garlic powder as well.
00:08:19.13\00:08:24.33
A little cayenne
00:08:24.37\00:08:25.70
and you don't
have to use cayenne,
00:08:25.73\00:08:27.54
you can, it's optional,
00:08:27.57\00:08:30.54
but because I am from Louisiana,
00:08:30.57\00:08:35.04
I love the little kick of spice,
00:08:35.08\00:08:37.28
so I am including
that in this recipe.
00:08:37.31\00:08:41.65
And this is the Himalayan salt
00:08:41.68\00:08:44.19
which is loaded with minerals
00:08:44.22\00:08:45.59
because the regular
table salt that we have
00:08:45.62\00:08:49.22
which is the
white salt is bleached
00:08:49.26\00:08:52.73
and they take a lot
of the minerals in it
00:08:52.76\00:08:55.06
and each part, all
of the part of our foods
00:08:55.10\00:08:57.90
should have
different properties in it
00:08:57.93\00:09:00.54
and, and have nutrients in it,
00:09:00.57\00:09:03.81
it shouldn't be stripped,
00:09:03.84\00:09:05.37
so that's why I
use the mineral salt
00:09:05.41\00:09:08.08
because it's loaded
with minerals as well.
00:09:08.11\00:09:11.35
And it's just not a seasoning,
00:09:11.38\00:09:13.55
but it also has
healing properties in it.
00:09:13.58\00:09:16.69
And the last but not
least, I'm using turmeric.
00:09:16.72\00:09:20.32
Okay, I did forget
one ingredient, cumin,
00:09:20.36\00:09:24.23
which is another spice
that I really, really like.
00:09:24.26\00:09:28.23
So here we have the paste.
00:09:28.26\00:09:30.80
And we're going to
add the cauliflower.
00:09:30.83\00:09:34.64
Now don't be afraid
to get your hands messy.
00:09:34.67\00:09:38.11
It is okay, and
my hands are clean,
00:09:38.14\00:09:41.14
I washed them,
00:09:41.18\00:09:42.51
so we're going to take this
00:09:42.54\00:09:44.48
and we're going to
just coat it all up
00:09:44.51\00:09:49.35
and look at that,
00:09:49.38\00:09:51.35
it is wonderful.
00:09:51.39\00:09:54.22
I'm smelling it
and, oh, my goodness,
00:09:54.26\00:09:56.73
I just cannot wait.
00:09:56.76\00:09:59.19
Now, we can eat this like this
00:09:59.23\00:10:04.53
or we can dehydrate it.
00:10:04.57\00:10:09.47
Now let me clean my hands here.
00:10:09.50\00:10:15.51
So if you don't, if
you want to dehydrate it,
00:10:15.54\00:10:18.78
you put it in
the trusty Excalibur
00:10:18.81\00:10:23.15
for overnight
00:10:23.18\00:10:26.32
and 12 hours to be exact
00:10:26.35\00:10:29.36
and, you know, you just take it
00:10:29.39\00:10:31.33
and put it on one of the sheets.
00:10:31.36\00:10:36.26
And lay it out and dehydrate it.
00:10:36.30\00:10:40.94
Or you can just
serve it like this.
00:10:40.97\00:10:43.57
Look at this cauliflower,
00:10:47.88\00:10:51.05
so this is the
dish that we served,
00:10:51.08\00:10:54.85
we're serving fresh
00:10:54.88\00:10:56.69
and this is the
one that we dehydrated.
00:10:56.72\00:10:59.25
And if you notice that,
00:10:59.29\00:11:00.72
it has shrink into
little small pieces like this,
00:11:00.76\00:11:04.83
but this is good for travel
00:11:04.86\00:11:06.83
and good for taking
on the road with you,
00:11:06.86\00:11:10.07
if you want to
have a snack food.
00:11:10.10\00:11:12.23
And this is good to
eat at a fellowship dinner
00:11:12.27\00:11:16.81
or have some friends over.
00:11:16.84\00:11:18.84
So this has been
a great recipe again
00:11:18.87\00:11:23.04
with Evita Tezeno,
00:11:23.08\00:11:25.01
and remember to live life fresh.
00:11:25.05\00:11:29.25
Oh my, oh me, it
may be cocoa tea.
00:11:35.86\00:11:39.56
This is something
00:11:39.59\00:11:40.93
that we're going
to look at here today,
00:11:40.96\00:11:42.33
some call it cocoa,
some call it hot chocolate,
00:11:42.36\00:11:44.80
whatever you want to
call it, you know what it is.
00:11:44.83\00:11:46.87
And this is like a key item
that everybody uses in general,
00:11:46.90\00:11:51.81
every home when
it's time for bed,
00:11:51.84\00:11:54.38
when it's time to wake up,
we all need some hot chocolate.
00:11:54.41\00:11:57.65
And I've been getting calls
00:11:57.68\00:11:59.91
and people ask me
what do you do about this,
00:11:59.95\00:12:01.98
is there any substitutes
or whatever like that.
00:12:02.02\00:12:04.52
Well, I said, "Well, maybe
you can answer that question.
00:12:04.55\00:12:06.79
Why would you want to
substitute something?"
00:12:06.82\00:12:08.72
They said, "Well, we know
00:12:08.76\00:12:10.09
we heard some
good things about it.
00:12:10.13\00:12:11.69
We heard some
bad things about it.
00:12:11.73\00:12:13.50
And so I just said,
00:12:13.53\00:12:14.86
"Let us not live by
the he says, she says,
00:12:14.90\00:12:16.60
because there's a lot
of things that people say,
00:12:16.63\00:12:18.30
one person says
this, one person says that.
00:12:18.33\00:12:20.44
New study shows
00:12:20.47\00:12:21.80
that dark
chocolate is good for this,
00:12:21.84\00:12:23.47
and then another study comes
00:12:23.51\00:12:24.84
and says
something totally different.
00:12:24.87\00:12:26.57
So I'm like you know what?
00:12:26.61\00:12:28.01
If there is so much
questionable information,
00:12:28.04\00:12:30.35
just give me something
00:12:30.38\00:12:31.71
that is simple and easy
00:12:31.75\00:12:33.65
and tastes just as
good without the drawbacks,
00:12:33.68\00:12:36.48
and what are we talking about?
00:12:36.52\00:12:37.85
We are talking about carob,
00:12:37.89\00:12:39.52
one of the nicest,
tastiest items out there,
00:12:39.55\00:12:43.09
and many people
use it as a substitute
00:12:43.12\00:12:45.03
for, for chocolate in general.
00:12:45.06\00:12:46.80
Now why would somebody want
00:12:46.83\00:12:48.16
to substitute
chocolate to begin with?
00:12:48.20\00:12:49.53
Well, let's look
at the pros and cons.
00:12:49.56\00:12:51.20
Is there some
pros about chocolate?
00:12:51.23\00:12:53.27
Of course there is, the
whole world knows the pros,
00:12:53.30\00:12:55.90
it tastes good
whether you like it or not.
00:12:55.94\00:12:58.87
I mean everybody, I
always ask this question,
00:12:58.91\00:13:00.74
"Are you addicted
00:13:00.78\00:13:02.11
and what are we
talking about chocolate?
00:13:02.14\00:13:03.48
Because a lot of
times if you ever noticed,
00:13:03.51\00:13:05.55
you can tell
people hold off on meat,
00:13:05.58\00:13:07.52
hold off on
this, hold off on that,
00:13:07.55\00:13:09.35
but when you say
hold off on chocolate,
00:13:09.38\00:13:11.39
people are
literally ready to fight you.
00:13:11.42\00:13:13.72
So, why?
00:13:13.76\00:13:15.09
Well, let's look
at the good things.
00:13:15.12\00:13:16.86
Number one, yes, it tastes good.
00:13:16.89\00:13:18.23
Why does it taste good?
00:13:18.26\00:13:19.69
Well, when you
look at cocoa or cacao,
00:13:19.73\00:13:22.00
as you know people
have million different names
00:13:22.03\00:13:24.00
in its original form.
00:13:24.03\00:13:25.37
It doesn't actually taste
as good, it's very bitter.
00:13:25.40\00:13:27.74
I was just actually at St. Lucia
00:13:27.77\00:13:29.24
where they grow
them quite a bit,
00:13:29.27\00:13:32.04
but what they do to
it when they process it,
00:13:32.07\00:13:33.98
they add a lot of what?
00:13:34.01\00:13:35.34
Fat or sugar or
different ingredients
00:13:35.38\00:13:38.01
to bring out the flavor
in it, and everybody knows
00:13:38.05\00:13:40.52
chocolate in its
original form is very bitter
00:13:40.55\00:13:43.52
What else are some
pros for the chocolate?
00:13:43.55\00:13:45.75
Well of course, it
makes you feel good.
00:13:45.79\00:13:48.46
Hello, yeah, I know
what I'm talking about.
00:13:48.49\00:13:50.46
You eve noticed
when somebody breaks up
00:13:50.49\00:13:52.33
and there's a little
issue in the relationship,
00:13:52.36\00:13:54.66
what do the ladies
or maybe even guys do?
00:13:54.70\00:13:57.20
They run to the supermarket
00:13:57.23\00:13:58.77
and they get
themselves some what?
00:13:58.80\00:14:00.90
Ice cream, not any ice cream
00:14:00.94\00:14:02.30
but chocolate ice
cream and it just helps them.
00:14:02.34\00:14:05.37
And so one person said,
00:14:05.41\00:14:06.74
"Well, it is a good
thing about chocolate
00:14:06.78\00:14:08.74
because it helps
keep you from depression,
00:14:08.78\00:14:10.35
well, temporary depression.
00:14:10.38\00:14:11.71
You're still going to be
upset that he or she left you.
00:14:11.75\00:14:14.12
So it gives you a
sense of wellbeing.
00:14:14.15\00:14:16.42
It tastes good,
also it gives you energy,
00:14:16.45\00:14:19.65
so hey, that's a good thing,
00:14:19.69\00:14:21.32
but now let's take a quick look,
00:14:21.36\00:14:22.96
let's back up a little
bit of why it does that?
00:14:22.99\00:14:25.29
Well, it gives
you so much energy
00:14:25.33\00:14:26.70
because it has so much calories
and it gives you that boost,
00:14:26.73\00:14:29.26
also it's loaded with the sugar,
00:14:29.30\00:14:30.63
but one of the key
ingredients is theobromine,
00:14:30.67\00:14:33.87
or some different forms
of it has caffeine in it.
00:14:33.90\00:14:36.74
So obviously caffeine is
going to make you feel good.
00:14:36.77\00:14:39.87
So yes, that's a positive thing,
00:14:39.91\00:14:41.61
but let's look at like I
said the other end of it.
00:14:41.64\00:14:43.95
Now because it has so
much fat, now as a result
00:14:43.98\00:14:47.78
you're gonna
start to add on extra,
00:14:47.82\00:14:49.92
extra blessings you said it,
00:14:49.95\00:14:51.35
because it has
quite a bit of fact.
00:14:51.39\00:14:53.42
Everybody knows this.
00:14:53.46\00:14:54.79
If you ever, if you're
from the islands or something
00:14:54.82\00:14:57.19
and you make the, in
its natural form cocoa tea,
00:14:57.23\00:14:59.89
if you don't
drink it all right away,
00:14:59.93\00:15:02.23
what's going to happen?
00:15:02.26\00:15:03.60
By morning time you
will see a big glob of fat
00:15:03.63\00:15:07.70
that is what we are drinking.
00:15:07.74\00:15:09.90
No wonder why people
are sometimes over bless,
00:15:09.94\00:15:12.74
and this is why they also relate
00:15:12.77\00:15:14.54
sometimes
chocolate to extra blessings.
00:15:14.58\00:15:16.68
But before I even
go into more of that,
00:15:16.71\00:15:18.38
ya'll like so what
are we going to do?
00:15:18.41\00:15:19.75
Are you taking away?
00:15:19.78\00:15:21.12
No, it's your
choice, you can use it
00:15:21.15\00:15:22.78
or some people say loose it,
00:15:22.82\00:15:24.15
but we want to give
you something better,
00:15:24.19\00:15:25.79
something better to try,
00:15:25.82\00:15:27.16
so I'm gonna tell
you a little bit more
00:15:27.19\00:15:28.52
about that chocolate,
00:15:28.56\00:15:29.89
but we're going to make
the best tastiest oh, man,
00:15:29.92\00:15:33.33
better than cocoa
tea drink for you.
00:15:33.36\00:15:36.13
And I hope you get
your pens and papers ready,
00:15:36.16\00:15:37.63
here it is a simple ingredients
00:15:37.67\00:15:39.57
Oh, My! Cocoa Me!!
00:15:39.60\00:15:42.00
It May Be Cocoa Tea!
00:15:42.04\00:15:43.74
And it's simple all you need is:
00:15:43.77\00:15:45.11
That's it,
that's how simple it is.
00:15:55.58\00:15:57.59
Everybody now can have some nice
00:15:57.62\00:16:00.39
hot, warm,
00:16:00.42\00:16:02.02
creamy delicious
drink in a morning.
00:16:02.06\00:16:03.86
And all you need is a pot.
You have your five cups here.
00:16:03.89\00:16:06.53
You can even
make this on scratch.
00:16:06.56\00:16:07.90
You remember, we've done
these recipes a million times.
00:16:07.93\00:16:09.80
You could use
cashews, you could use almonds.
00:16:09.83\00:16:12.23
Now, they have
rice milk out there,
00:16:12.27\00:16:13.74
milk of your choice.
00:16:13.77\00:16:15.10
But what are you going
to do, you gonna take a pot,
00:16:15.14\00:16:16.47
we're going to get
this one cranked up here.
00:16:16.50\00:16:19.01
All right, so we have,
00:16:19.04\00:16:21.51
we gonna get this nice and warm
00:16:21.54\00:16:22.88
and we gonna take
our five cups of...
00:16:22.91\00:16:24.88
I just, I use soy milk.
00:16:24.91\00:16:27.12
Soy milk is my favorite.
00:16:27.15\00:16:29.55
Some people like
different options.
00:16:29.58\00:16:31.32
To me almonds,
this is really thick.
00:16:31.35\00:16:33.66
Soy milk for me was
just a nice consistency.
00:16:33.69\00:16:37.26
Rice milk, I
think it's too watery,
00:16:37.29\00:16:38.93
but some people love it too,
all of these are beneficial.
00:16:38.96\00:16:41.30
Some people say, "Hey,
be careful with the soy,
00:16:41.33\00:16:43.26
it may cause you
to grow, you know,
00:16:43.30\00:16:44.83
extra things for the gentleman.
00:16:44.87\00:16:46.94
Now, we don't
want that of course.
00:16:46.97\00:16:48.80
And the reason
why they get this idea
00:16:48.84\00:16:51.21
is because soy has
00:16:51.24\00:16:52.94
what is known as phytoestrogens,
00:16:52.97\00:16:55.84
and they kind of get
it twisted just a tad.
00:16:55.88\00:16:58.55
And if you watch
our previous shows,
00:16:58.58\00:17:00.38
when we explain
about phytoestrogens,
00:17:00.42\00:17:02.68
they actually do
not work like estrogen,
00:17:02.72\00:17:05.22
but they replace the estrogen
00:17:05.25\00:17:07.16
and stops you actually
from getting extra blessings,
00:17:07.19\00:17:09.82
so just make sure you
double check those studies.
00:17:09.86\00:17:12.39
What we're going to do now,
00:17:12.43\00:17:13.76
we're going to
boil this a little bit,
00:17:13.80\00:17:15.13
and what are we going to
use instead of chocolate?
00:17:15.16\00:17:17.50
We're going to use carob chip,
a beautiful, beautiful island,
00:17:17.53\00:17:22.00
I was just thinking about,
00:17:22.04\00:17:23.41
I found this when I was in
the islands in Spain, in Spain.
00:17:23.44\00:17:27.18
I went to one of
these trees and I found it,
00:17:27.21\00:17:30.65
and also when I was in Turkey,
00:17:30.68\00:17:32.18
I was like, man,
00:17:32.21\00:17:33.55
this is what John the
Baptist was probably eating.
00:17:33.58\00:17:36.05
Ya'll ready for that yet,
00:17:36.08\00:17:37.42
but he was eating the
things that was hopping around.
00:17:37.45\00:17:39.42
So you gonna let
this boil a little bit.
00:17:39.45\00:17:41.29
You going to
take the carob chip,
00:17:41.32\00:17:42.79
you're going to put it in there.
00:17:42.82\00:17:45.09
And I'm just going to
get the process going,
00:17:45.13\00:17:47.00
and it's going
to melt nicely here.
00:17:47.03\00:17:49.93
You know, let that go,
keep stirring it though,
00:17:49.96\00:17:52.17
because a lot of
times if you don't,
00:17:52.20\00:17:54.40
it may get a little
clumpy and jumpy on you.
00:17:54.44\00:17:58.11
And as you see,
look at that already.
00:17:58.14\00:18:00.34
So you got to do it
really fast and keep that going,
00:18:00.38\00:18:03.55
it's going to turn nice,
nice and that, that, that,
00:18:03.58\00:18:07.15
that chocolate
look that we always want
00:18:07.18\00:18:11.32
and you remember, we're
going to add a sweetener
00:18:11.35\00:18:13.49
of choice, of course,
00:18:13.52\00:18:14.86
probably sugar in a raw
00:18:14.89\00:18:16.22
or evaporated
cane juice crystals.
00:18:16.26\00:18:18.86
Some people
say, I don't have it,
00:18:18.89\00:18:20.23
I'm going to use
honey, you can use honey,
00:18:20.26\00:18:21.80
but you know honey has
that aggressive flavor to it,
00:18:21.83\00:18:24.83
but you can use that.
00:18:24.87\00:18:26.20
Hey, you work
with what you have.
00:18:26.23\00:18:27.57
Actually that's like
the biggest, the biggest,
00:18:27.60\00:18:30.54
if I could say down for
00:18:30.57\00:18:32.57
people who are trying to
live a healthy lifestyle,
00:18:32.61\00:18:34.84
they may not have
all of the ingredients
00:18:34.88\00:18:37.85
but work with what you have,
00:18:37.88\00:18:39.31
choose a sweetener of choice
00:18:39.35\00:18:41.18
and, and keep it
moving, keep it moving,
00:18:41.22\00:18:43.65
especially if you want
something nice and warmth
00:18:43.69\00:18:45.75
to drink in the morning.
00:18:45.79\00:18:47.26
Now preferably
when you drink this,
00:18:47.29\00:18:48.86
you don't want to be eating.
00:18:48.89\00:18:50.23
You know, how we do
it, we take that bread
00:18:50.26\00:18:51.69
and then we wash
it down a little bit.
00:18:51.73\00:18:53.70
You don't want to
be eating or drinking,
00:18:53.73\00:18:55.06
so if you want to
celebrate, you know,
00:18:55.10\00:18:57.33
maybe the holidays is
here, the family came by,
00:18:57.37\00:19:00.24
you can have this, but
preferably before you eat,
00:19:00.27\00:19:03.97
because if you have it
while you're eating or after,
00:19:04.01\00:19:06.17
you remember what
that's going to do?
00:19:06.21\00:19:07.54
That's going to
cause a little issue there
00:19:07.58\00:19:08.98
in the tummy
00:19:09.01\00:19:10.35
is going to slow
down the digestion.
00:19:10.38\00:19:12.51
And that's one of
the things with chocolate
00:19:12.55\00:19:13.92
because it has so much fat,
00:19:13.95\00:19:15.62
so many other
active ingredients there,
00:19:15.65\00:19:19.02
it actually
slows down a digestion,
00:19:19.05\00:19:21.29
so if you're
wondering why you have
00:19:21.32\00:19:22.66
extra little
things on your face,
00:19:22.69\00:19:25.09
as we work with one
young lady, she says,
00:19:25.13\00:19:28.26
"What can I do,
00:19:28.30\00:19:29.63
I will love to clear
up my skin and my face."
00:19:29.66\00:19:31.50
And when we sat down
00:19:31.53\00:19:32.87
and we started talking with her,
00:19:32.90\00:19:34.24
come to find out what
was she using a lot of,
00:19:34.27\00:19:36.27
a lot of chocolate,
00:19:36.30\00:19:37.64
and because of the fat
00:19:37.67\00:19:39.01
and extra
ingredients that it has,
00:19:39.04\00:19:40.38
it may come out of the
body one way or another.
00:19:40.41\00:19:43.85
And so sometimes it
comes out of your face,
00:19:43.88\00:19:45.51
that's why we always, always
trying to pick these things
00:19:45.55\00:19:47.58
that you notice
that fat or that...
00:19:47.62\00:19:49.55
All right, we're
in a kitchen, sorry.
00:19:49.58\00:19:51.35
We're not supposed to be
talking about this stuff.
00:19:51.39\00:19:52.99
But anyway, so she held off
on using chocolate as a result
00:19:53.02\00:19:57.33
and exercising
00:19:57.36\00:19:58.73
but it was even
deeper than that.
00:19:58.76\00:20:00.16
She was having a little
problem with one of her friends
00:20:00.20\00:20:03.16
and as we saw she was...
00:20:03.20\00:20:04.73
as a result she's
fallen into little depression,
00:20:04.77\00:20:06.53
so she started staying at
home, eating more ice cream,
00:20:06.57\00:20:08.90
eating more chocolate,
00:20:08.94\00:20:10.27
and then her face
started to break up,
00:20:10.31\00:20:12.01
but she made it right
with God, and she said,
00:20:12.04\00:20:14.04
if I get above him,
00:20:14.08\00:20:15.64
and now her face
is as so fresh...
00:20:15.68\00:20:18.88
We do a special program
called "So Fresh and So Clean,
00:20:18.91\00:20:21.22
Beauty on the inside
and Beauty on the outside."
00:20:21.25\00:20:24.35
So here it is, my
hot, not cocoa tea,
00:20:24.39\00:20:28.12
but carob tea is
basically, look at this,
00:20:28.16\00:20:31.26
this looks delicious.
00:20:31.29\00:20:32.63
I don't know if
you'll see this here.
00:20:32.66\00:20:34.46
Oh, man,
00:20:34.50\00:20:35.93
this is something that
you can enjoy once in a while,
00:20:35.96\00:20:38.27
you don't want to
have this every, every day,
00:20:38.30\00:20:40.80
because this is supposed
to be for special occasions.
00:20:40.84\00:20:43.10
Do you know in the Bible
00:20:43.14\00:20:44.47
what they drank
most of the time?
00:20:44.51\00:20:45.84
You see a lot of
people are into juicing
00:20:45.87\00:20:47.61
and drinking all
kind of special things.
00:20:47.64\00:20:49.54
In the Bible what did
they drink all the time
00:20:49.58\00:20:51.78
or most of the time?
00:20:51.81\00:20:53.15
They drank what?
00:20:53.18\00:20:54.52
Water, you hit on the head.
00:20:54.55\00:20:55.92
So can we have
00:20:55.95\00:20:57.29
something
special once in a while?
00:20:57.32\00:20:58.65
What did they do
00:20:58.69\00:21:00.02
in a Bible
special once in a while?
00:21:00.06\00:21:01.39
They had some juice,
00:21:01.42\00:21:02.76
but every other day of
the year they drank water.
00:21:02.79\00:21:04.63
So this will be
for special occasions,
00:21:04.66\00:21:06.83
and I want to make sure
that we, that we remember that.
00:21:06.86\00:21:09.86
So that is getting ready,
00:21:09.90\00:21:11.43
that is pretty much almost done.
00:21:11.47\00:21:13.44
I'm going to
turn this on low here.
00:21:13.47\00:21:17.07
Okay. Man, look at that.
00:21:17.11\00:21:18.74
Matter of fact what
I encourage you to do,
00:21:18.77\00:21:20.51
I don't even have any,
00:21:20.54\00:21:21.88
you can even take
cardamom or coriander,
00:21:21.91\00:21:25.85
you can sprinkle a
little bit on that as well
00:21:25.88\00:21:28.02
that will add the extra flavor.
00:21:28.05\00:21:29.38
Some people take
it to the next level,
00:21:29.42\00:21:30.99
they put a little vanilla
and I'm like, whoo, slow down,
00:21:31.02\00:21:33.46
let's just stick with the carob,
00:21:33.49\00:21:34.92
and you can enjoy that.
00:21:34.96\00:21:36.32
But let's take a quick idea
00:21:36.36\00:21:38.19
or a look at what we
were talking about chocolate.
00:21:38.23\00:21:40.73
Now you remember I said,
it may cause other problems
00:21:40.76\00:21:42.93
such as
breaking out on the skin.
00:21:42.96\00:21:44.73
It may cause a
little extra blessings,
00:21:44.77\00:21:46.74
but one of the main
things that is related to is,
00:21:46.77\00:21:50.07
is it has a stimulant
called theobromine, theobromine,
00:21:50.11\00:21:54.34
so a lot of people as a
result of using chocolate,
00:21:54.38\00:21:57.18
they're
wondering why they are like
00:21:57.21\00:21:58.55
forcing
themselves to sleep at night
00:21:58.58\00:22:00.65
because it stimulates them,
00:22:00.68\00:22:02.68
and some people may
even cause tachycardia,
00:22:02.72\00:22:04.92
you know, your heart rate starts
00:22:04.95\00:22:06.32
speeding up a little bit.
00:22:06.35\00:22:08.42
It may cause even
migraines and headache.
00:22:08.46\00:22:11.33
And a matter fact
that's a big thing
00:22:11.36\00:22:12.69
because a lot of
times people are,
00:22:12.73\00:22:14.30
are wondering what
can I do for my migraine?
00:22:14.33\00:22:16.83
What can I do for my headache?
00:22:16.87\00:22:18.27
Is not that you
should take something else
00:22:18.30\00:22:20.17
and put it into the diet.
00:22:20.20\00:22:21.54
What we should try
our best to look at
00:22:21.57\00:22:23.37
is what is in the
diet that we need to what?
00:22:23.41\00:22:26.11
That we need to take out.
00:22:26.14\00:22:27.48
And because of those
psycho active substances
00:22:27.51\00:22:30.68
that they call, it may
lead to also migraines.
00:22:30.71\00:22:33.92
People ask what about allergies?
00:22:33.95\00:22:35.38
Does chocolate cause allergies?
00:22:35.42\00:22:36.95
And very few people have an
allergy to actual chocolate.
00:22:36.99\00:22:41.09
What they may be allergic
to one of the number one,
00:22:41.12\00:22:44.19
one of the number one causes
and there's many causes is that
00:22:44.23\00:22:47.36
what goes into the
chocolate, which is what?
00:22:47.40\00:22:49.80
Milk, a lot of times people
may have an allergy to milk
00:22:49.83\00:22:53.44
and don't even realize that
00:22:53.47\00:22:54.80
because sometimes
it goes undiagnosed
00:22:54.84\00:22:56.64
and cause allergic
reactions to other foods.
00:22:56.67\00:22:58.51
What else do
they put in chocolate?
00:22:58.54\00:22:59.87
When they're making a candy bar,
00:22:59.91\00:23:01.31
what else do they put in it?
00:23:01.34\00:23:02.68
They put nuts in it,
00:23:02.71\00:23:04.05
so sometimes people may have
an allergy to different nuts
00:23:04.08\00:23:06.41
but very rare, or I don't,
00:23:06.45\00:23:09.08
I haven't seen it as much
that many people have allergy
00:23:09.12\00:23:12.05
to the chocolate,
00:23:12.09\00:23:13.56
but carob is a
definitely good substitute.
00:23:13.59\00:23:16.89
So this is ready.
00:23:16.93\00:23:18.26
Look at that deep dark
color that we are so used to.
00:23:18.29\00:23:21.66
Y'all know what
I'm talking about,
00:23:21.70\00:23:23.03
those nice drinks that
we have in the morning,
00:23:23.06\00:23:25.13
and if anybody's from
the islands, you know, we...
00:23:25.17\00:23:28.50
I won't event, I won't
even call the name here.
00:23:28.54\00:23:30.81
So I'm going to
turn this one off,
00:23:30.84\00:23:32.51
but now we have to seal this.
00:23:32.54\00:23:34.48
We've got to put
a nice little cream
00:23:34.51\00:23:36.28
to make it even creamy here.
00:23:36.31\00:23:38.05
We're going to take
this thing to next level.
00:23:38.08\00:23:39.71
And this is one of my favorite,
one of delightful creams
00:23:39.75\00:23:42.52
that we will go ahead and
make for your nice carob drink,
00:23:42.55\00:23:47.16
and it's Oh My! Cocoa Me!!
00:23:47.19\00:23:48.86
let's put some whipped cream.
00:23:48.89\00:23:51.09
All you need is:
00:23:51.13\00:23:52.59
Literally this thing
is that simple and easy
00:24:11.48\00:24:14.95
to make a nice
little whipped cream
00:24:14.98\00:24:16.32
or cream or
something of that nature,
00:24:16.35\00:24:18.35
and make sure that
you get it all together
00:24:18.39\00:24:21.22
because this is going to be,
00:24:21.26\00:24:22.59
this is going
to happen so quick.
00:24:22.62\00:24:23.96
All we need to do is
take those ingredients,
00:24:23.99\00:24:25.33
we're going to put
that in the blender there,
00:24:25.36\00:24:26.93
all right.
00:24:26.96\00:24:28.30
Now you all know
that whipped cream
00:24:28.33\00:24:31.43
is basically oil, all right.
00:24:31.47\00:24:34.74
And so what we're doing
00:24:34.77\00:24:36.10
is we're going to balance
it out with the soy milk,
00:24:36.14\00:24:38.17
and we're going to have some
00:24:38.21\00:24:39.54
evaporated crane juice crystals,
00:24:39.57\00:24:41.21
that's why make sure
00:24:41.24\00:24:42.58
you all don't get it
twisted, a lot of people like,
00:24:42.61\00:24:43.95
"What? Sugar. Yeah."
00:24:43.98\00:24:45.48
And this is, this is different,
00:24:45.51\00:24:46.85
now sugar is refined
as you know and processed,
00:24:46.88\00:24:50.32
but this one here still contains
00:24:50.35\00:24:52.09
those vitamins and minerals
which is necessary, all right.
00:24:52.12\00:24:54.82
So we're going to put
that in there as well.
00:24:54.86\00:24:57.19
We're going to go ahead and
add that soy milk, almond milk,
00:24:57.23\00:25:00.13
you decide which one you like,
00:25:00.16\00:25:02.06
and we're going to
put those items there,
00:25:02.10\00:25:04.07
and don't
forget your lemon juice
00:25:04.10\00:25:07.70
and your half a
teaspoon of sea salt like.
00:25:07.74\00:25:12.37
This is no joke, ya'll.
This is really that easy.
00:25:12.41\00:25:15.01
The other thing is if you
buy the regular whipped cream,
00:25:15.04\00:25:17.88
you're going to get a
ton of extra blessings,
00:25:17.91\00:25:20.22
and you know
what I'm talking about
00:25:20.25\00:25:21.58
and it's been processed
00:25:21.62\00:25:22.95
and so, why don't
you do it at home,
00:25:22.98\00:25:24.32
so you don't have to
worry about those ingredients
00:25:24.35\00:25:25.72
you can never really pronounce
or I couldn't pronounce.
00:25:25.75\00:25:27.76
I'm going to speak for myself,
00:25:27.79\00:25:29.12
they're like...
00:25:29.16\00:25:30.86
I'm like what?
00:25:30.89\00:25:32.23
They say if you can't say
it, don't eat it, all right,
00:25:32.26\00:25:34.93
or when in doubt, leave it out.
00:25:34.96\00:25:36.67
So we're just
going to blend this here
00:25:36.70\00:25:38.03
till it whips it up
really nice for y'all.
00:25:38.07\00:25:40.00
All right, look
at that, it's so...
00:25:57.82\00:26:00.99
I'm just going to shake
it up a little bit here,
00:26:01.02\00:26:03.39
so I could blend it
all, and one more time.
00:26:03.43\00:26:07.43
Oh, mine, look at that.
00:26:25.78\00:26:27.88
If I could get this going here.
00:26:27.92\00:26:29.72
Here we go.
00:26:29.75\00:26:31.09
This is now my nice
delicious whipped cream.
00:26:31.12\00:26:34.16
Let me give y'all
a little peek here.
00:26:34.19\00:26:36.06
Take a little look at
what we've got going here.
00:26:36.09\00:26:38.83
I don't know if
you all can see that.
00:26:38.86\00:26:41.00
There you go, that is delicious.
00:26:41.03\00:26:43.26
Oh, my, this is
the whipped cream
00:26:43.30\00:26:46.03
that we always dream
about while we're sleeping,
00:26:46.07\00:26:48.80
so go ahead and
enjoy that nice almond.
00:26:48.84\00:26:52.07
You can actually put,
00:26:52.11\00:26:53.44
if you put a little bit more
evaporated cane juice crystals,
00:26:53.48\00:26:56.61
you can even use this
as a topping, as a topping.
00:26:56.64\00:26:59.41
But everything is
pretty much ready.
00:26:59.45\00:27:01.42
We have this,
this is ready to go,
00:27:01.45\00:27:03.32
so now as a result
of making it yourself,
00:27:03.35\00:27:05.85
you can avoid some of the issues
00:27:05.89\00:27:08.36
that come along with what?
00:27:08.39\00:27:10.79
With chocolate by making
your own nice carob drink,
00:27:10.83\00:27:14.26
I'm just going
to pour back in here
00:27:14.30\00:27:15.80
because I don't
want to make a mess.
00:27:15.83\00:27:17.97
Look at that.
00:27:18.00\00:27:19.33
Y'all know what that is,
that's steam when you come
00:27:19.37\00:27:21.57
and put that hot
chocolate together.
00:27:21.60\00:27:23.64
Delicious, delicious, delicious.
00:27:23.67\00:27:25.71
You can go ahead, put
the whipped cream on top.
00:27:25.74\00:27:28.41
Enjoy it however you want.
00:27:28.44\00:27:29.84
But now you don't
have to worry anymore,
00:27:29.88\00:27:31.68
because this
one is good for you.
00:27:31.71\00:27:33.45
You can even have seconds.
00:27:33.48\00:27:34.98
Matter of fact,
I'm going to grab one
00:27:35.02\00:27:37.15
that I had prepared here,
00:27:37.19\00:27:39.19
and I'm gonna give you all
opportunity to try it as well.
00:27:39.22\00:27:42.66
Matter of fact, taste
and see that it's good
00:27:42.69\00:27:45.49
and give us a call
here at Taste of Paradise,
00:27:45.53\00:27:47.50
and you tell me what
you think, look at this.
00:27:47.53\00:27:51.07
Oh, my, you could come by
00:27:51.10\00:27:52.83
and have a second
cup and enjoy with me.
00:27:52.87\00:27:55.54
Oh My! Oh Me!
00:27:55.57\00:27:57.21
It maybe cocoa tea,
00:27:57.24\00:27:58.87
but it's the
good stuff of course.
00:27:58.91\00:28:00.68
