Have you ever wondered
00:00:01.36\00:00:02.70
exactly how to
prepare healthy food
00:00:02.73\00:00:04.07
that actually taste good.
00:00:04.10\00:00:05.87
Well, stay tuned
while Evita Tezeno
00:00:05.90\00:00:07.67
and your truly Nyse Collins
show you just how to do it
00:00:07.70\00:00:10.81
and give you something
better, A Taste of Paradise.
00:00:10.84\00:00:14.58
Welcome to A Taste of Paradise.
My name is Evita Tezeno.
00:00:31.49\00:00:35.90
And, you know, I love pasta.
00:00:35.93\00:00:38.53
Pasta is just one of
my favorite meals to eat,
00:00:38.57\00:00:42.57
but pasta is usually
refined and it's not best for
00:00:42.60\00:00:48.84
if you're trying to
trim it down a little bit.
00:00:48.88\00:00:51.41
But I have a pasta just for you
00:00:51.45\00:00:53.11
that will defy all other pastas.
00:00:53.15\00:00:57.02
It is made with zucchini,
and it's spicy and it's yummy.
00:00:57.05\00:01:02.52
I'm making a Red Chili Linguine.
00:01:02.56\00:01:05.96
I work at a raw restaurant
00:01:05.99\00:01:07.76
and this is a
recipe I adapted from this
00:01:07.80\00:01:11.20
but I changed
it up a little bit.
00:01:11.23\00:01:13.03
So let's go to the ingredients.
00:01:13.07\00:01:16.24
For the sauce we need:
00:01:16.27\00:01:18.14
So we're gonna start
with the sauce first.
00:01:36.66\00:01:39.46
Real simple
ingredients you can make it
00:01:39.49\00:01:42.23
in a couple of minutes.
00:01:42.26\00:01:44.07
So we're gonna start
with the red bell peppers
00:01:44.10\00:01:46.57
which is high in vitamin C,
00:01:46.60\00:01:49.40
and I'll use
only red bell peppers.
00:01:49.44\00:01:53.14
Well, the color was not green,
00:01:53.17\00:01:54.68
because green ones are not ripe.
00:01:54.71\00:01:58.25
So I tend to just use the
red or the yellow or the orange.
00:01:58.28\00:02:04.82
And we have Braggs.
00:02:04.85\00:02:06.92
Now if you have an
allergic reaction to soy,
00:02:06.96\00:02:10.06
you can...
00:02:10.09\00:02:11.43
I told you before
in other programs,
00:02:11.46\00:02:12.79
you can use
soaked sun dried tomatoes
00:02:12.83\00:02:15.26
and you could use
the water from there.
00:02:15.30\00:02:17.63
You could also put a
little salt in it for you
00:02:17.67\00:02:20.44
if you want a little salt,
00:02:20.47\00:02:21.80
so that will replace the Braggs.
00:02:21.84\00:02:26.07
And we have olive oil...
00:02:26.11\00:02:27.84
And our nutritional yeast
which is high in B vitamins.
00:02:31.05\00:02:36.69
And we blend it.
00:02:40.16\00:02:41.76
So now we're going
to take the spinach.
00:02:58.17\00:03:01.18
And I forgot one
thing, one of my favorites,
00:03:04.21\00:03:07.35
because you
know, I'm a spicy girl.
00:03:07.38\00:03:10.29
I am putting a
jalapeno pepper in it.
00:03:10.32\00:03:12.99
It was only a small one.
00:03:19.76\00:03:22.56
So we're gonna take the spinach
00:03:22.60\00:03:25.27
and we're gonna
just coarsely chop it.
00:03:25.30\00:03:29.87
And spinach is high in iron.
00:03:29.90\00:03:34.44
And we should eat a
lot of greens in our diet.
00:03:34.48\00:03:38.91
That's one of the missing things
00:03:38.95\00:03:40.28
that we have,
00:03:40.32\00:03:41.65
and you could take the spinach
and put it in a smoothie,
00:03:41.68\00:03:45.22
you could juice it
00:03:45.25\00:03:46.59
or you could eat
it whole like this.
00:03:46.62\00:03:51.03
And if you remember
from previous shows,
00:03:51.06\00:03:53.33
we have spiralized zucchini.
00:03:53.36\00:03:55.13
These are like
noodles, look at that,
00:03:55.16\00:03:57.83
this replaces the
noodles in the linguine.
00:03:57.87\00:04:00.54
And I like to cut
them up a little bit
00:04:03.91\00:04:05.51
'cause they're
really, really long,
00:04:05.54\00:04:07.74
so you just break
them up a little bit.
00:04:07.78\00:04:11.01
Put this chopped spinach in,
00:04:14.12\00:04:18.85
your carrots,
your grated carrots,
00:04:18.89\00:04:25.19
your bell peppers.
00:04:25.23\00:04:26.59
So you're getting in a
lot of extra vitamin C here,
00:04:26.63\00:04:29.60
because we it in the sauce,
00:04:29.63\00:04:31.53
and we also have it in the salad
00:04:31.57\00:04:35.20
or the linguine mixture,
00:04:35.24\00:04:37.37
and we have slice green onions.
00:04:37.41\00:04:43.55
Now we take
this, take the sauce,
00:04:43.58\00:04:49.95
and we just want to
drizzle the sauce over.
00:04:49.98\00:04:52.62
And combine all the ingredients.
00:05:00.26\00:05:03.93
Look at the
colors, this is just,
00:05:03.97\00:05:06.10
I can't wait to eat
this, this is great.
00:05:06.13\00:05:08.00
And look how quick it was.
00:05:08.04\00:05:09.54
It's a very quick recipe
00:05:09.57\00:05:11.27
that you can do
and take it for lunch.
00:05:11.31\00:05:15.84
Have some friends over
00:05:15.88\00:05:17.91
and this would be
also a great Sabbath meal.
00:05:17.95\00:05:23.08
'Cause it doesn't
require too much work,
00:05:23.12\00:05:24.82
it's just real simple.
00:05:24.85\00:05:28.56
So let's plate it.
00:05:28.59\00:05:30.43
Those zucchini noodles
are really, really long
00:05:35.96\00:05:38.87
so you wanna really
chop them up before.
00:05:38.90\00:05:41.00
But this just
looks just like pasta.
00:05:44.21\00:05:46.57
Look how beautiful
that looks, all the colors.
00:05:53.28\00:05:57.29
Now I will always
say to eat the rainbow,
00:05:57.32\00:05:59.85
and you have
little part of the rainbow
00:05:59.89\00:06:02.26
right here
sitting in front of you.
00:06:02.29\00:06:06.59
And here we have another
fresh and fabulous recipe
00:06:06.63\00:06:09.76
from the kitchen of Evita.
00:06:09.80\00:06:12.23
And remember to live life fresh.
00:06:12.27\00:06:16.71
Happy birthday to
you, happy birthday to me,
00:06:22.61\00:06:26.18
happy birthday to everybody,
everybody loves birthdays.
00:06:26.21\00:06:29.18
Birthdays are the best,
00:06:29.22\00:06:30.55
we all love it and
enjoy it as if Nyse Collins,
00:06:30.59\00:06:33.19
because I celebrate
everyday as a birthday.
00:06:33.22\00:06:35.22
But during the birthday times
00:06:35.26\00:06:36.99
there is usually
something special that we have.
00:06:37.03\00:06:39.36
It's like the
center piece of it all.
00:06:39.39\00:06:41.76
What do we always have
when we put those candles on?
00:06:41.80\00:06:44.07
We always have the cake.
00:06:44.10\00:06:45.87
And everybody wants to
live a healthy lifestyle,
00:06:45.90\00:06:47.87
but they say we have
to still have some cake,
00:06:47.90\00:06:50.34
how do we do it?
00:06:50.37\00:06:51.71
So today we're gonna do
something fabulously fantastic
00:06:51.74\00:06:55.01
and it's gonna be
fun too, and flavorful,
00:06:55.04\00:06:58.11
it's a mouthful to ask.
00:06:58.15\00:06:59.58
We're gonna make some
cake and a really good cake
00:06:59.61\00:07:02.22
so even for the kids,
00:07:02.25\00:07:04.12
they can have something
healthy and tasty to eat.
00:07:04.15\00:07:07.06
But as you know,
cakes are just a handful,
00:07:07.09\00:07:10.13
so I brought one of
our fabulous famous bakers,
00:07:10.16\00:07:14.46
our Sanare Life baker,
her name is Yanira Gonzalez.
00:07:14.50\00:07:18.07
Come on start.
00:07:18.10\00:07:20.34
We have to do our elbow bump.
00:07:20.37\00:07:21.70
We want to keep it
clean up in here, all right.
00:07:21.74\00:07:23.17
Amen.
00:07:23.20\00:07:24.54
But thank you for
coming and helping us out here
00:07:24.57\00:07:27.08
with this cake
by popular demand.
00:07:27.11\00:07:29.48
Everybody is like, we
need cake, cake, cake.
00:07:29.51\00:07:31.98
You ever notice,
00:07:32.01\00:07:33.35
you go to may be
church or a special event
00:07:33.38\00:07:35.02
and it's not good until
they bring out the, what?
00:07:35.05\00:07:37.72
The cake, the dessert.
00:07:37.75\00:07:39.09
Until they bring out
the cake or the dessert.
00:07:39.12\00:07:40.62
It's really funny
because sometimes you know,
00:07:40.66\00:07:42.82
everybody now like a padlock
00:07:42.86\00:07:44.49
we have all those
good healthy food.
00:07:44.53\00:07:46.46
And then when we
get down the line,
00:07:46.49\00:07:49.30
it's like we went
downtown and back,
00:07:49.33\00:07:52.03
and we got everything
00:07:52.07\00:07:53.40
that has to do with
sugar, sugar, sugar.
00:07:53.44\00:07:55.20
You're like, what
happened to healthy food?
00:07:55.24\00:07:57.17
So today we...
00:07:57.21\00:07:59.11
There is no excuse anymore
here on A Taste of Paradise,
00:07:59.14\00:08:02.68
we're gonna learn how to make
some really good healthy cake.
00:08:02.71\00:08:06.85
What is it called
a creamy carob cake,
00:08:06.88\00:08:09.58
there you go.
00:08:09.62\00:08:10.95
That's right.
00:08:10.99\00:08:12.32
Or creamy cake
and with some nice,
00:08:12.35\00:08:14.12
what kind of
topping is gonna be on that?
00:08:14.16\00:08:15.62
Carob. Carob topping.
00:08:15.66\00:08:17.43
We all are going to
enjoy this, so Yanira,
00:08:17.46\00:08:20.90
you are a famous baker you know.
00:08:20.93\00:08:23.16
I'm not famous but...
00:08:23.20\00:08:24.70
She is famous, she is famous.
00:08:24.73\00:08:26.07
At our office, here
people will literally call in,
00:08:26.10\00:08:28.54
"Yeah, can I order some cake?"
00:08:28.57\00:08:30.41
And reason why
we're gonna show you
00:08:30.44\00:08:31.97
how to do it because Yanira,
00:08:32.01\00:08:33.61
she may be small
but her price is big.
00:08:33.64\00:08:36.31
And literally she
would charge you almost a...
00:08:36.34\00:08:38.28
No, no, no.
00:08:38.31\00:08:39.65
I didn't charge
you, you charged.
00:08:39.68\00:08:42.72
But I had to charge,
00:08:42.75\00:08:44.39
a work woman is
worthy of her hire.
00:08:44.42\00:08:45.95
Amen.
00:08:45.99\00:08:47.32
And she makes a fabulous cake
00:08:47.36\00:08:48.69
and we called to
Ron and checked out
00:08:48.72\00:08:50.19
how much it cost
to make a vegan cake,
00:08:50.23\00:08:52.09
and he will charge in a
$150 or something like that,
00:08:52.13\00:08:55.63
so we have to make sure
our sister was taking care.
00:08:55.66\00:08:58.03
So she charges almost a $100,
75 to $100 just to make a cake.
00:08:58.07\00:09:03.07
But you're gonna learn it here
00:09:03.10\00:09:04.44
where you can do
it yourself, right?
00:09:04.47\00:09:05.81
I mean that's the ultimate goal.
00:09:05.84\00:09:07.18
And it's very simple and easy.
00:09:07.21\00:09:08.54
'Cause Yanira got things to do,
00:09:08.58\00:09:09.91
she don't have
time to be making cake,
00:09:09.94\00:09:11.28
so we're gonna learn
00:09:11.31\00:09:12.65
how to make this
creamy carob cake
00:09:12.68\00:09:14.72
with carob topping and stuff,
00:09:14.75\00:09:16.55
but actually
it's not a carob cake,
00:09:16.58\00:09:17.92
this is a conventional cake,
00:09:17.95\00:09:19.35
'cause normally
what kind of cake
00:09:19.39\00:09:21.82
do they use for birthday cakes?
00:09:21.86\00:09:25.49
Is that conventional
one? Just conventional.
00:09:25.53\00:09:27.06
A simple one or a white one or?
00:09:27.10\00:09:29.23
Yeah, normally and it
has like strawberry in there.
00:09:29.26\00:09:32.33
Strawberries and the whole
word so stuff like that, okay.
00:09:32.37\00:09:34.54
And very sweet too.
Very sweet, very sweet.
00:09:34.57\00:09:37.61
Now you notice
people a lot of times
00:09:37.64\00:09:39.21
when we're having these cakes,
00:09:39.24\00:09:40.68
they're moving,
they're like icing on
00:09:40.71\00:09:42.41
'cause it's like too sweet.
00:09:42.44\00:09:43.78
Matter of fact,
I like sweet items
00:09:43.81\00:09:45.75
but if it's too sweet,
my teeth starts to burn.
00:09:45.78\00:09:49.28
And so today we're not
gonna have that problem
00:09:49.32\00:09:51.65
and we're gonna go,
00:09:51.69\00:09:53.02
we hope you all
had enough time to run
00:09:53.05\00:09:54.62
and grab your pens
and papers and stuff
00:09:54.66\00:09:56.19
because you gonna hear it once.
00:09:56.22\00:09:57.93
Anytime you hear after that,
00:09:57.96\00:09:59.29
you're gonna have
to call and order it
00:09:59.33\00:10:00.66
and then you're going
to bless our sister here,
00:10:00.70\00:10:02.23
amen, amen.
00:10:02.26\00:10:03.60
So here it is our phenomenal
creamy carob cake recipe.
00:10:03.63\00:10:10.01
And all it is:
00:10:10.04\00:10:11.37
Whatever you have, that
is what we're gonna use.
00:10:45.94\00:10:48.54
So what we're trying to do
is give you some options here,
00:10:48.58\00:10:50.45
so you can work
with what you have,
00:10:50.48\00:10:53.75
so we can make a nice
delicious cake for that.
00:10:53.78\00:10:56.85
So, Yanira, I may
be talking forever,
00:10:56.89\00:10:59.59
where do we start?
00:10:59.62\00:11:00.96
All right, we're
gonna start with the flour.
00:11:00.99\00:11:02.32
Okay. We're
gonna put it on that.
00:11:02.36\00:11:04.56
So we put the flour here,
can I help out a little bit?
00:11:04.59\00:11:06.56
Sure, that will be great.
00:11:06.59\00:11:07.93
I'm mixing something that
over needs to be mix, okay.
00:11:07.96\00:11:10.27
Right, this is
the unbleached flour.
00:11:10.30\00:11:12.07
This is the unbleached flour.
00:11:12.10\00:11:13.44
Of course, it's
still whole wheat.
00:11:13.47\00:11:14.80
Okay. It's whole grain.
00:11:14.84\00:11:16.17
Okay.
00:11:16.20\00:11:17.54
So you don't want
the processed one.
00:11:17.57\00:11:18.91
Right or a white, white,
is that white wheat flour
00:11:18.94\00:11:20.28
or something like that, okay.
00:11:20.31\00:11:21.64
Enrich and then we
have the wheat flour there.
00:11:21.68\00:11:24.51
Okay.
00:11:24.55\00:11:25.88
And it's very,
very quick and easy,
00:11:25.91\00:11:28.32
so we're gonna put the salt,
so you can mix it really well.
00:11:28.35\00:11:31.15
So we got to mix
that salt really well,
00:11:31.19\00:11:32.79
because if you don't,
you're gonna be having a sweet
00:11:32.82\00:11:36.26
and then one sec, a
next second or what?
00:11:36.29\00:11:38.29
A salty bite,
yeah. That's right.
00:11:38.33\00:11:40.40
So you got to
mix it really well.
00:11:40.43\00:11:41.76
Okay. So then we have the milk.
00:11:41.80\00:11:43.87
Now I like coconut milk.
Do you like coconut milk?
00:11:43.90\00:11:48.30
Coconut milk, I
grew up on coconut milk.
00:11:48.34\00:11:50.11
You forgot, I'm from
the island of Brooklyn.
00:11:50.14\00:11:51.94
Oh, that's right, that's
right. Sorry, bro, sorry.
00:11:51.97\00:11:53.94
All right, so we're gonna,
00:11:53.98\00:11:55.38
this time we're
gonna have soy milk,
00:11:55.41\00:11:57.08
I also like the pineapple. Okay.
00:11:57.11\00:11:59.28
Pineapple makes it
really nice. Pineapple juice?
00:11:59.31\00:12:01.28
Pineapple juice, yes. Okay.
00:12:01.32\00:12:02.88
So we're gonna put
this in here in the middle.
00:12:02.92\00:12:05.05
So you can
either use the soy milk
00:12:05.09\00:12:06.65
or even the coconut milk.
00:12:06.69\00:12:08.96
I think it will
come out really rich.
00:12:08.99\00:12:10.99
And then we have the oil.
00:12:11.03\00:12:13.06
Okay.
00:12:13.09\00:12:14.43
What kind of oil here?
00:12:14.46\00:12:15.80
This is vegetable oil. Okay.
00:12:15.83\00:12:17.77
Whatever you desire
but there are some oils
00:12:17.80\00:12:19.97
that are pretty strong.
00:12:20.00\00:12:21.34
So you don't
wanna put them in there.
00:12:21.37\00:12:22.70
Yeah, you don't wanna
be putting in extra virgin
00:12:22.74\00:12:24.77
cold-pressed
super healthy olive oil,
00:12:24.81\00:12:28.48
then your cake is gonna
be olive cake in the process.
00:12:28.51\00:12:31.58
All right, then we're
gonna put there vanilla.
00:12:31.61\00:12:33.88
All right, vanilla
extract. Not fermented.
00:12:33.92\00:12:35.58
All right, and
without the alcohol there.
00:12:35.62\00:12:39.15
That's right.
00:12:39.19\00:12:40.52
And then we're
gonna put the butter.
00:12:40.56\00:12:42.02
So yeah, I see you
have a spoon over there.
00:12:42.06\00:12:43.89
I have a spoon,
00:12:43.93\00:12:45.26
so basically we
just grab the butter here
00:12:45.29\00:12:46.63
and I'm gonna let you do that.
00:12:46.66\00:12:48.50
Now it's getting stuck in here,
00:12:48.53\00:12:49.86
should I have to
use regular spoon?
00:12:49.90\00:12:52.60
No, no, it's good.
You can just do it.
00:12:52.63\00:12:55.17
So we're gonna put
some butter in there.
00:12:55.20\00:12:57.74
Right, okay.
00:12:57.77\00:12:59.14
And then... Mix
it up really good.
00:12:59.17\00:13:01.21
I feel like I'm
making bread again here.
00:13:01.24\00:13:02.64
Now, I know, but
sometimes you will find yourself
00:13:02.68\00:13:06.08
having a little bit, if
it is kind of, you know,
00:13:06.11\00:13:08.78
like it's not too watery,
00:13:08.82\00:13:12.09
we could add more milk in there.
00:13:12.12\00:13:13.99
Okay.
00:13:14.02\00:13:15.36
Let me see if we
have some more milk.
00:13:15.39\00:13:17.66
So we have that.
We don't have any...
00:13:17.69\00:13:19.29
All right. All right.
00:13:19.33\00:13:20.66
So I'm gonna open
it up a little bit.
00:13:20.70\00:13:22.03
And the last
thing we're gonna put
00:13:22.06\00:13:23.40
is the featherweight.
00:13:23.43\00:13:24.77
All right, the featherweight.
00:13:24.80\00:13:26.13
Yeah. All right.
00:13:26.17\00:13:27.50
This is so.
00:13:27.54\00:13:28.87
So you're gonna mix
this up nicely here.
00:13:28.90\00:13:31.21
All right, so we're getting...
00:13:31.24\00:13:32.64
Yeah, we're
supposed to put a little bit
00:13:32.67\00:13:34.01
more water in that.
00:13:34.04\00:13:35.38
Okay. We don't have any water.
00:13:35.41\00:13:38.61
Right there, we're in a kitchen,
00:13:38.65\00:13:39.98
we're gonna work it out.
00:13:40.02\00:13:41.78
All right, so now
that that's going here,
00:13:41.82\00:13:44.15
we're gonna keep mixing this.
00:13:44.19\00:13:45.52
Right.
00:13:45.55\00:13:46.96
And so now we're gonna...
00:13:46.99\00:13:49.62
And we're just gonna
grab some water, yes,
00:13:49.66\00:13:51.69
so follow along with us here.
00:13:51.73\00:13:55.16
And so watch this,
00:13:55.20\00:13:57.60
this is getting
really thick here.
00:13:57.63\00:14:00.30
So you're sure or what
you're gonna get, Yani?
00:14:00.34\00:14:04.64
I would actually go
get a little bit of water,
00:14:04.67\00:14:07.68
I mean actually milk, I'm sorry.
00:14:07.71\00:14:09.44
There it is, there it is.
00:14:09.48\00:14:11.11
You're trying to
water down my recipe here.
00:14:11.15\00:14:13.31
No, no, no. Here
we go, here we go.
00:14:13.35\00:14:15.25
So we're just
taking little of that milk.
00:14:15.28\00:14:16.85
Yeah, you could add as
you, you know, you can see
00:14:16.89\00:14:18.95
and that is kind
of thick sometimes
00:14:18.99\00:14:20.46
because of the flour,
00:14:20.49\00:14:21.82
different type
of flours out there.
00:14:21.86\00:14:23.96
It will make it kind of thick,
you know, so let me add more.
00:14:23.99\00:14:29.80
There you go.
00:14:29.83\00:14:31.17
All right, 'cause
we're making cake bread here.
00:14:31.20\00:14:32.67
Now we got to move it fast now.
00:14:32.70\00:14:34.60
All right. Oops! There it is.
00:14:34.64\00:14:37.24
Don't we use that
little mixing thing?
00:14:37.27\00:14:39.77
We can, we have
one actually here.
00:14:39.81\00:14:42.14
If you want to use
it, let me put this back.
00:14:42.18\00:14:45.91
Or what consistency are
we trying to get to here?
00:14:45.95\00:14:49.68
You just want to make it smooth.
00:14:49.72\00:14:51.05
All right. Very, very smooth.
00:14:51.09\00:14:52.75
So it's getting smooth here.
00:14:52.79\00:14:55.22
All right, man, Yani,
00:14:55.26\00:14:57.03
this thing is a
workout, this is no joke.
00:14:57.06\00:14:59.03
No wonder people just
go ahead and buy cakes.
00:14:59.06\00:15:01.40
That's right, that's
right. It is a workout.
00:15:01.43\00:15:04.43
But it's coming
along, it's coming along.
00:15:04.47\00:15:05.93
Now I know why
they had those mixers.
00:15:05.97\00:15:07.50
That's right.
00:15:07.54\00:15:08.87
But, man, this thing looks good,
00:15:08.90\00:15:10.24
now you also added...
00:15:10.27\00:15:11.61
I was gonna tell you, yeah,
I was gonna tell you before,
00:15:11.64\00:15:14.31
you know, the last thing
you want to add in that recipe
00:15:14.34\00:15:17.75
is the featherweight.
00:15:17.78\00:15:19.11
Is the featherweight. Yes.
00:15:19.15\00:15:20.48
Because it's
little temperamental so...
00:15:20.52\00:15:21.85
Yeah, I think it's
acting up right now, huh.
00:15:21.88\00:15:24.65
So, you want to mix
everything very well,
00:15:24.69\00:15:27.69
and then lastly we normally
put that the featherweight,
00:15:27.72\00:15:30.69
and that's the featherweight
is aluminum-free baking powder,
00:15:30.73\00:15:34.43
so you know
00:15:34.46\00:15:35.80
you don't have
to be feeling guilty
00:15:35.83\00:15:37.80
that you're eating something
that is not good for you, so.
00:15:37.83\00:15:40.20
This is crucial
because normally they have
00:15:40.24\00:15:42.54
the aluminum-free baking powder
00:15:42.57\00:15:43.91
but at the same
time that still contains
00:15:43.94\00:15:46.14
what is known as
sodium bicarbonate...
00:15:46.17\00:15:48.08
And a whole bunch of other items
00:15:48.11\00:15:49.44
which will go ahead
00:15:49.48\00:15:50.81
and cause little imbalance
in the digestive tract,
00:15:50.85\00:15:52.85
like even sometimes
with the water that we drink,
00:15:52.88\00:15:55.35
they say flavor
enhance, or minerals enhance,
00:15:55.38\00:15:58.02
they add sodium bicarbonate
which is a flavor enhancer
00:15:58.05\00:16:01.02
but at the same time it
will cause a nice little,
00:16:01.06\00:16:04.29
nice, not a nice one
but a little imbalance there
00:16:04.33\00:16:06.90
in the digestive process,
00:16:06.93\00:16:09.30
so that's why it's
good to try our best
00:16:09.33\00:16:11.03
to do the items without,
00:16:11.07\00:16:12.57
and that's the,
that's one of the big things
00:16:12.60\00:16:14.34
with cakes and stuff
00:16:14.37\00:16:15.70
and trying to
eat a healthy cake.
00:16:15.74\00:16:17.07
And sometimes they
put so many things,
00:16:17.11\00:16:18.84
things that cause it
to rise or this or that,
00:16:18.87\00:16:21.24
that it makes it nice and fluffy
00:16:21.28\00:16:23.31
and taste good,
00:16:23.35\00:16:24.68
but at the same time it
causes some other problems.
00:16:24.71\00:16:26.28
That's right.
00:16:26.31\00:16:27.65
So the
featherweight is one option.
00:16:27.68\00:16:29.05
Is there anything else
there like 'cause, you know,
00:16:29.08\00:16:30.85
featherweight is
a specialty thing,
00:16:30.89\00:16:32.39
so that is one thing that
we'll probably use in the show.
00:16:32.42\00:16:34.59
As you can't find
that in all super markets.
00:16:34.62\00:16:36.69
Is it available in
normally at specialty?
00:16:36.73\00:16:39.63
Yeah, like a healthful store
00:16:39.66\00:16:41.23
normally that's
where you'll get it.
00:16:41.26\00:16:42.80
Like a healthful
store, a big one.
00:16:42.83\00:16:44.63
And if they don't have it,
you could actually request it.
00:16:44.67\00:16:46.13
Okay.
00:16:46.17\00:16:47.50
You know, because
you desire to, you know,
00:16:47.54\00:16:49.30
bring something
healthier in their store
00:16:49.34\00:16:51.71
so they actually do that for me
00:16:51.74\00:16:53.34
when I don't find
something in their stores.
00:16:53.38\00:16:56.51
They'll order for me especially.
00:16:56.54\00:16:57.91
You just go ahead and request,
00:16:57.95\00:16:59.31
and look it out we
have not 'cause we ask not.
00:16:59.35\00:17:01.88
So we have that we
don't have the good cake
00:17:01.92\00:17:04.22
because we don't ask
for the right ingredients
00:17:04.25\00:17:05.72
for the good cake, but
you can do it yourself.
00:17:05.75\00:17:07.32
All right.
00:17:07.36\00:17:08.69
So now real quick,
00:17:08.72\00:17:10.06
because this cake
is the special cake,
00:17:10.09\00:17:11.43
this is the birthday cake, Yani.
00:17:11.46\00:17:12.79
Yes, it is. It's
not just one layer.
00:17:12.83\00:17:14.46
It's how many
layers, about two layers
00:17:14.50\00:17:16.20
or you can even do
three layer cake there.
00:17:16.23\00:17:20.10
So you may have
to take this recipe
00:17:20.14\00:17:21.64
and double it may be.
00:17:21.67\00:17:23.00
Right, that's
what I normally do.
00:17:23.04\00:17:24.37
Oh, man, if we do double of that
00:17:24.41\00:17:26.01
I've been flexing over here.
00:17:26.04\00:17:27.38
You know what I
mean, this thing is...
00:17:27.41\00:17:28.74
That's right, that
had been worse, yeah.
00:17:28.78\00:17:30.11
This thing is...
This is serous business.
00:17:30.15\00:17:31.48
So you already went ahead
and put a little oil and then?
00:17:31.51\00:17:33.98
Just pour it in.
00:17:34.02\00:17:36.69
Oh, man, this is
the real deal here.
00:17:36.72\00:17:39.59
All right. Let it go.
00:17:39.62\00:17:42.02
This is gonna be a big one.
00:17:42.06\00:17:43.39
We can probably even use
this for two now or I guess...
00:17:43.43\00:17:47.10
No, actually it's
exactly, it's exactly one.
00:17:47.13\00:17:49.06
Oh, okay. Exactly one here.
00:17:49.10\00:17:50.97
So if you want
another layer on the cake,
00:17:51.00\00:17:54.04
then you just have
to make this again,
00:17:54.07\00:17:55.64
or if you got one
of those machines.
00:17:55.67\00:17:57.67
Yeah, that's actually easier.
00:17:57.71\00:17:59.17
You can just
double the recipe and...
00:17:59.21\00:18:00.71
And then use a bigger
cooking pan, you know, so.
00:18:00.74\00:18:03.95
A cooking pan as
well, okay. Okay.
00:18:03.98\00:18:05.68
So I'm gonna put this
here, so how would that look?
00:18:05.71\00:18:08.32
We'll take that, we put that in,
00:18:08.35\00:18:10.32
in the oven here.
00:18:10.35\00:18:11.69
Right. Okay.
00:18:11.72\00:18:13.05
And then you already have one
that's made for you, all right.
00:18:13.09\00:18:17.43
Okay, here is one.
00:18:17.46\00:18:19.26
That's how we
would come out there,
00:18:19.29\00:18:22.10
so this is a nice
little one conventional cake
00:18:22.13\00:18:24.70
or little layer of the
cake that you have here,
00:18:24.73\00:18:27.94
very simple, easy,
tasty, I'm sure as well.
00:18:27.97\00:18:31.61
It is.
00:18:31.64\00:18:32.97
And then you build on that,
00:18:33.01\00:18:34.34
so then you'll take like
two of them and make that so.
00:18:34.38\00:18:37.21
We're gonna stop the
building process here.
00:18:37.25\00:18:39.81
It looks like you got a
little crispy on one side.
00:18:39.85\00:18:42.15
Well, you know sometimes
00:18:42.18\00:18:43.52
this is another
thing when you bake.
00:18:43.55\00:18:45.55
It's nice to have a
nice oven, but you know,
00:18:45.59\00:18:48.72
always have a
nice oven, you know,
00:18:48.76\00:18:50.53
so this one
actually kind of bake in
00:18:50.56\00:18:53.40
on the side more
than in the middle, so.
00:18:53.43\00:18:55.06
Okay.
00:18:55.10\00:18:56.43
But it's still good,
it's cooked, you know.
00:18:56.46\00:18:57.80
Okay. You know, so that.
00:18:57.83\00:18:59.17
We're gonna work with that,
00:18:59.20\00:19:00.54
and so now we're
gonna do the frosting.
00:19:00.57\00:19:02.44
We're gonna do the frosting,
yeah, that's the sugar.
00:19:02.47\00:19:04.14
And you already, I
think have that sugar
00:19:04.17\00:19:06.21
already mixed in
with the flour there.
00:19:06.24\00:19:08.88
Right.
00:19:08.91\00:19:10.25
And this is one of
the sugars that we use
00:19:10.28\00:19:11.61
'cause lot of
people they want to avoid
00:19:11.65\00:19:14.32
excess sugar there,
and so what is this?
00:19:14.35\00:19:17.39
This is an
evaporated cane juice crystals.
00:19:17.42\00:19:20.92
All right, so it's
really simple item.
00:19:20.96\00:19:23.73
You can find
this at major stores.
00:19:23.76\00:19:25.53
At Wal-Mart, yeah.
00:19:25.56\00:19:26.90
All right, you know,
so there's major stores
00:19:26.93\00:19:28.26
all of the different
brands of supermarkets
00:19:28.30\00:19:30.83
and markets out there.
00:19:30.87\00:19:32.20
This is evaporated
cane juice crystals,
00:19:32.23\00:19:34.74
all right, you can use this.
00:19:34.77\00:19:36.10
This you already
had there with the flour
00:19:36.14\00:19:38.07
already mixed in so,
00:19:38.11\00:19:39.44
just go ahead and
get that rolling early.
00:19:39.47\00:19:41.41
Then we're gonna grab
some of the items here
00:19:41.44\00:19:43.58
and I'm gonna clean up
while you get the frost
00:19:43.61\00:19:46.25
because you
cannot have a cake here
00:19:46.28\00:19:48.55
without a good frosting.
00:19:48.58\00:19:51.05
And sometimes many frostings
are just like overly sweet
00:19:51.09\00:19:54.69
or there's just something
it's not right with them,
00:19:54.72\00:19:56.42
so now that you don't
have to complain anymore,
00:19:56.46\00:20:00.00
because you can
make it yourself.
00:20:00.03\00:20:02.46
Really simple and easy.
00:20:02.50\00:20:04.20
Hope you all are following along
00:20:04.23\00:20:05.57
because we're about
to build the cake here.
00:20:05.60\00:20:07.44
And you will not have any excuse
00:20:07.47\00:20:09.40
why you can't do
it, so you're gonna...
00:20:09.44\00:20:10.94
Oops, there it is,
got to be quick, will you?
00:20:10.97\00:20:12.54
Sorry, all right.
00:20:12.57\00:20:13.91
So now we're
using the same sugar
00:20:13.94\00:20:15.68
that you were
just talking about.
00:20:15.71\00:20:17.05
Okay.
00:20:17.08\00:20:18.41
Now for me just to
save some money what I did,
00:20:18.45\00:20:21.12
I put it on the
blender and I made it powder.
00:20:21.15\00:20:24.52
All right, so you...
00:20:24.55\00:20:25.89
So I didn't have
to buy the powder,
00:20:25.92\00:20:27.26
because if you buy
the bag, it's more money.
00:20:27.29\00:20:30.33
This is true,
00:20:30.36\00:20:31.69
because we'll look
at little recipe here,
00:20:31.73\00:20:33.66
real quick.
00:20:33.70\00:20:35.03
This is the
creamy carob frosting
00:20:35.06\00:20:37.13
or something like that.
00:20:37.17\00:20:38.80
Simple recipe
on how you can make
00:20:38.83\00:20:40.44
your own icing or frosting
for your creamy carob cake.
00:20:40.47\00:20:43.67
And all you need is:
00:20:43.71\00:20:45.04
All right, so real
simple and you just saved us
00:21:10.90\00:21:14.14
a whole bunch of money
00:21:14.17\00:21:15.50
'cause normally
when you buy a cake
00:21:15.54\00:21:16.87
or when you make
cakes, you buy the sugar,
00:21:16.91\00:21:19.37
then you buy the powdered sugar,
00:21:19.41\00:21:21.54
so we take that
00:21:21.58\00:21:22.91
same healthy
evaporated cane juice crystals
00:21:22.94\00:21:24.85
not brown, not brown...
00:21:24.88\00:21:26.21
No, not brown.
00:21:26.25\00:21:27.58
Sugar or something like
that, and you just blend it dry.
00:21:27.62\00:21:29.58
Right, right. Blend it dry.
00:21:29.62\00:21:30.99
So...
00:21:31.02\00:21:32.35
'Cause you know, the
brown sugar what it is,
00:21:32.39\00:21:34.12
you know what it is, right?
00:21:34.16\00:21:35.49
It's actually
enriched sugar with molasses.
00:21:35.52\00:21:40.50
So it's very white sugar
with a little extra molasses.
00:21:40.53\00:21:41.86
Molasses. Yeah, that's right.
00:21:41.90\00:21:43.23
So...
00:21:43.26\00:21:44.60
All right, so we're
gonna put these in here.
00:21:44.63\00:21:45.97
Okay, so we've taken
that better than cream cheese.
00:21:46.00\00:21:49.24
Oh, man, I
think it's thick here.
00:21:49.27\00:21:51.27
Looks like I want to
just put some of that
00:21:51.31\00:21:52.67
on a bagel real quick.
00:21:52.71\00:21:54.44
We grew up eating
bagels, okay, and then...
00:21:54.48\00:21:56.85
All right, we're
gonna put the butter.
00:21:56.88\00:22:00.22
Now you see me, I' m trying
to get everything out of this.
00:22:00.25\00:22:02.65
This thing
wasn't cheap, all right.
00:22:02.68\00:22:04.32
Actually that's
what my mom would do.
00:22:04.35\00:22:05.69
Yeah. This wasn't cheap, so.
00:22:05.72\00:22:08.02
We got to just
throw everything, yeah.
00:22:08.06\00:22:09.49
So we're gonna take it
all of that out of here,
00:22:09.52\00:22:11.23
take a piece of bread
00:22:11.26\00:22:12.59
and make sure you get
your money's worth, all right.
00:22:12.63\00:22:14.50
And then what else?
00:22:14.53\00:22:16.10
All right,
let's put the vanilla,
00:22:16.13\00:22:17.47
we're gonna start
mixing that already.
00:22:17.50\00:22:18.83
All right. All right.
00:22:18.87\00:22:20.20
Let's put the vanilla. We
got the vanilla going, next?
00:22:20.24\00:22:22.37
There you go,
let's put the carob.
00:22:22.40\00:22:25.04
A carob. This is our...
00:22:25.07\00:22:26.74
Whoo! Nice little...
00:22:26.78\00:22:28.24
So this will give us
like a little chocolaty
00:22:28.28\00:22:31.11
frosting icing type?
00:22:31.15\00:22:32.58
Right.
00:22:32.61\00:22:33.95
So now, we're
gonna put the sugar,
00:22:33.98\00:22:35.42
we're gonna
slowly add it in there
00:22:35.45\00:22:37.09
as you're mixing it.
00:22:37.12\00:22:38.75
Okay. There you go.
00:22:38.79\00:22:40.12
This is serious.
00:22:40.16\00:22:41.89
So let's say because I'm
not a super fan of chocolate.
00:22:41.92\00:22:46.70
What if I want it like lemon?
00:22:46.73\00:22:48.30
Yeah, you could
just take the carob off
00:22:48.33\00:22:50.87
and then just add more lemon.
00:22:50.90\00:22:52.60
All right, so it's
just like lemon essence
00:22:52.63\00:22:54.20
or something like that?
00:22:54.24\00:22:55.57
No, actually
straight lemon juice.
00:22:55.60\00:22:57.11
Oh, just lemon juice,
00:22:57.14\00:22:58.47
and then I
could have a lemony...
00:22:58.51\00:22:59.97
Right, frosting.
00:23:00.01\00:23:01.74
Frosting. That's right.
00:23:01.78\00:23:03.14
Or even some of the, you
know, the skin of the lemon
00:23:03.18\00:23:07.55
a little bit, you know.
00:23:07.58\00:23:08.92
Yeah, you could do that.
00:23:08.95\00:23:10.29
Any flavor that
you desire really.
00:23:10.32\00:23:11.99
You just follow
this with simple recipe.
00:23:12.02\00:23:14.22
Man, it looks like flour,
00:23:14.26\00:23:15.59
this is really
like powdered sugar.
00:23:15.62\00:23:16.96
Okay. There you go.
00:23:16.99\00:23:19.26
Now mix it really
well. Watch it now.
00:23:19.29\00:23:21.76
It's coming here,
you go, it's coming.
00:23:21.80\00:23:23.67
See how beautiful,
it's nice and creamy.
00:23:23.70\00:23:26.90
You just got to put
a little oomph in it.
00:23:26.94\00:23:28.34
That's right.
00:23:28.37\00:23:29.80
And it's already
like, this is serious.
00:23:29.84\00:23:33.84
And you go. So you
mix that up nicely here.
00:23:33.88\00:23:36.04
Yes. You're pretty much done.
00:23:36.08\00:23:38.41
Look at how beautiful
that is. Get out of town.
00:23:38.45\00:23:41.95
All right, so let's get
the, our finished product.
00:23:41.98\00:23:46.45
Okay.
00:23:46.49\00:23:48.09
So we have a second
one, we're gonna build it.
00:23:48.12\00:23:53.70
All right, so. Here you go.
00:23:53.73\00:23:56.26
Let's put it up
here already, so.
00:23:56.30\00:23:58.27
All right.
00:23:58.30\00:23:59.63
So what do I do, I
take this off of this here?
00:23:59.67\00:24:01.44
Yes, just turn it.
00:24:01.47\00:24:05.87
This is a heavyweight here.
00:24:05.91\00:24:08.84
This is how you
know you have good cake,
00:24:08.88\00:24:10.41
when it's so heavy, you
have to think twice, okay.
00:24:10.45\00:24:14.05
And then we have
that second layer
00:24:14.08\00:24:15.62
or we can do one
layer, or just we'll do two.
00:24:15.65\00:24:17.59
We're gonna do two.
00:24:17.62\00:24:18.95
But we're gonna layer,
00:24:18.99\00:24:20.32
we're gonna put the
frosting in the middle.
00:24:20.36\00:24:21.69
All right, So I'll
follow you leading,
00:24:21.72\00:24:23.06
I'll start cleaning up here.
00:24:23.09\00:24:24.69
So you started
with one layer there,
00:24:24.73\00:24:26.43
then you gonna put the frosting.
00:24:26.46\00:24:28.00
That right.
00:24:28.03\00:24:29.36
So all we gonna do
just add it, very simple.
00:24:29.40\00:24:33.90
You could have your little...
00:24:33.94\00:24:35.30
Yeah, so you
have that little line
00:24:35.34\00:24:36.71
that goes in between the cakes
00:24:36.74\00:24:38.07
when you have the
cakes and they're like this,
00:24:38.11\00:24:39.64
so matter, we're
changing the name of this thing,
00:24:39.67\00:24:41.61
this is gonna be called
00:24:41.64\00:24:42.98
by the two level
creamy carob cake,
00:24:43.01\00:24:47.32
or yeah, you know what it is.
00:24:47.35\00:24:49.02
All right, do you
want to get the other one,
00:24:49.05\00:24:50.49
the other layer please?
00:24:50.52\00:24:51.85
Okay, so the other layer here.
00:24:51.89\00:24:53.22
It should be, yeah.
I'll just bring that out.
00:24:53.25\00:24:54.86
Now you could put it
on top. There you go.
00:24:54.89\00:24:59.83
Now you know
what you could do too,
00:24:59.86\00:25:01.60
like if you have some
strawberries already cooked,
00:25:01.63\00:25:04.50
you put them in the middle.
00:25:04.53\00:25:06.23
Oh, so you slice
the strawberries thin
00:25:06.27\00:25:08.70
so before you put this one
on, you slice the strawberries,
00:25:08.74\00:25:11.11
you put it in there or
you could take pineapple.
00:25:11.14\00:25:13.38
That's right.
00:25:13.41\00:25:14.74
Crush up the
pineapple and hopefully a sweet,
00:25:14.78\00:25:16.34
if it's not sweet throw
in some agave or something
00:25:16.38\00:25:18.31
and you put...
00:25:18.35\00:25:19.75
Oh, man, forget it.
00:25:19.78\00:25:21.22
This show is now
the cake baking show,
00:25:21.25\00:25:24.45
because I'm
thinking of all the ideas
00:25:24.49\00:25:26.59
that we can get,
00:25:26.62\00:25:28.16
get really
working with this one.
00:25:28.19\00:25:30.49
So we layer that on
and then like I said,
00:25:30.53\00:25:33.16
if you want it,
oh, you can even have
00:25:33.19\00:25:34.86
different color
frosting or icing.
00:25:34.90\00:25:39.07
That's right. That's right.
00:25:39.10\00:25:40.44
You can just do
one without the carob.
00:25:40.47\00:25:41.97
With the lemon, the vanilla.
00:25:42.00\00:25:43.61
With the lemon or vanilla,
or you could probably do one
00:25:43.64\00:25:45.51
with carob, one with lemon.
00:25:45.54\00:25:47.48
That's right. This is dangerous.
00:25:47.51\00:25:49.64
So you're coming
up with many ideas,
00:25:49.68\00:25:51.58
that's good, that's good.
00:25:51.61\00:25:52.95
It's about to get out
of control up in here.
00:25:52.98\00:25:54.32
So this is a
simple cake. Very simple.
00:25:54.35\00:25:57.82
Have mercy, have mercy.
00:25:57.85\00:25:59.39
So you just, and
you can put it on heavy
00:25:59.42\00:26:01.22
'cause the stuff
is good, amen, amen.
00:26:01.26\00:26:03.89
But of course you
want to be temperate.
00:26:03.93\00:26:05.49
And of course moderate, yeah.
00:26:05.53\00:26:06.90
Yeah, I got a
little intemperate here,
00:26:06.93\00:26:10.03
but I'm really
excited that now we have
00:26:10.07\00:26:11.83
a simple way to do this cake,
it will be healthful for you,
00:26:11.87\00:26:16.27
even a sugar that you
have more vitamins and minerals
00:26:16.30\00:26:19.17
'cause it's just a cane
juice that's been evaporated.
00:26:19.21\00:26:21.78
That's right.
00:26:21.81\00:26:23.14
The butter that we used
on it is a healthful butter
00:26:23.18\00:26:26.75
and if you watch one
of our other programs,
00:26:26.78\00:26:28.25
we even showed
you how to make butter
00:26:28.28\00:26:30.09
from simple
things like cornmeal.
00:26:30.12\00:26:31.75
Do you think we
could probably use that?
00:26:31.79\00:26:33.25
Cornmeal or corn, yeah.
00:26:33.29\00:26:34.62
Because we did
it with a cornmeal
00:26:34.66\00:26:35.99
and a lot of coconut,
00:26:36.02\00:26:37.93
so you can even do that,
00:26:37.96\00:26:39.33
and most cakes
are loaded with what?
00:26:39.36\00:26:41.20
Eggs and sugar, and
milk and all of this,
00:26:41.23\00:26:46.33
this man, when you
have a slice of this,
00:26:46.37\00:26:48.24
it's like eating
fantasy or something like that,
00:26:48.27\00:26:52.97
because you know,
why it's so crucial,
00:26:53.01\00:26:54.58
because a lot of
times when we eat the cake,
00:26:54.61\00:26:56.24
we're like, oh, man, I
know, it isn't good for me,
00:26:56.28\00:26:58.38
but give me another piece.
00:26:58.41\00:26:59.75
And we're thinking
about how many miles
00:26:59.78\00:27:01.12
we have to run or walk tomorrow.
00:27:01.15\00:27:02.88
But now you don't
have to worry about that,
00:27:02.92\00:27:04.25
you can do it yourself.
00:27:04.29\00:27:05.62
And can you have seconds?
00:27:05.65\00:27:07.42
Yes, you can.
00:27:07.46\00:27:08.79
Amen, I'm taking
the whole thing with me.
00:27:08.82\00:27:10.16
Now you can stop
here, but Yani, you have one
00:27:10.19\00:27:12.59
that you went ahead
and fixed up nicely.
00:27:12.63\00:27:14.93
I'm just gonna keep this here
and so you see how you can...
00:27:14.96\00:27:18.87
Kind of decorate, be
fun with that you know.
00:27:18.90\00:27:21.24
Decorated,
spruced it up. Oh, my...
00:27:21.27\00:27:23.00
It's not always
like a same pattern.
00:27:23.04\00:27:24.37
This is the
real deal right here.
00:27:24.41\00:27:26.51
So you have this one here,
this is just the normal one
00:27:26.54\00:27:30.45
and this one which
is the special one.
00:27:30.48\00:27:32.21
Now you all notice
I didn't say fake one.
00:27:32.25\00:27:35.55
This is normal and
it's extra special.
00:27:35.58\00:27:37.59
When you make this
cake, just put it out there,
00:27:37.62\00:27:39.65
don't be like
this is the fake cake,
00:27:39.69\00:27:41.32
this is one that we've
learned on A Taste of Paradise.
00:27:41.36\00:27:43.36
We normally do that, yeah.
00:27:43.39\00:27:44.73
Give it a try,
00:27:44.76\00:27:46.09
kids are not gonna
play around with that,
00:27:46.13\00:27:47.46
they'd be like, don't
give me the fake stuff,
00:27:47.50\00:27:48.83
just give me the real stuff.
00:27:48.86\00:27:50.20
But now you can say, man,
00:27:50.23\00:27:51.57
here is the cake that we made,
00:27:51.60\00:27:52.93
put a couple of
things happy new day to you,
00:27:52.97\00:27:54.97
happy new day to you,
00:27:55.00\00:27:57.14
and enjoy your birthday or
any celebration healthfully.
00:27:57.17\00:28:01.04
