Have you ever wondered
how to prepare healthy,
00:00:01.36\00:00:03.13
tasty meals raw and cooked
that actually tastes good?
00:00:03.16\00:00:07.27
Well, stay tuned
while Evita Tezeno
00:00:07.30\00:00:09.20
and yours truly Nyse
Collins show you how to do so
00:00:09.24\00:00:12.11
and give you a
Taste of Paradise.
00:00:12.14\00:00:15.78
Welcome to a Taste of Paradise.
00:00:32.39\00:00:34.86
This is Evita Tezeno.
00:00:34.90\00:00:36.77
And again we're
doing some holiday recipes.
00:00:36.80\00:00:40.84
Yes, but we have
sweets for the sweets today.
00:00:40.87\00:00:45.11
You know, I remember
back home when I was little,
00:00:45.14\00:00:48.04
my grandmother used to make
this fabulous sweet potato pie,
00:00:48.08\00:00:52.68
it was amazing.
00:00:52.71\00:00:55.72
I just wanted to eat
the whole pie by myself.
00:00:55.75\00:01:00.82
So when I became vegan,
00:01:00.86\00:01:03.89
I had to think about
recreating that recipe.
00:01:03.93\00:01:09.06
And then when I started
eating more raw, I said, "Hmm,
00:01:09.10\00:01:12.47
how can I do that same recipe
in the form of a cheese cake?"
00:01:12.50\00:01:17.67
And viola! I've done it.
00:01:17.71\00:01:20.61
We're gonna have it almost raw,
00:01:20.64\00:01:24.41
sweet potato cheesecake today.
00:01:24.45\00:01:26.95
The reason why it's
almost raw because I did bake
00:01:26.98\00:01:30.29
the sweet potatoes.
00:01:30.32\00:01:31.75
But it is fabulous,
00:01:31.79\00:01:33.52
all the other
ingredients are alive,
00:01:33.56\00:01:36.49
and the sweet potato is
the only one that is baked.
00:01:36.52\00:01:39.13
So let's read those ingredients
00:01:39.16\00:01:40.76
and let's get to
making this cheesecake.
00:01:40.80\00:01:45.33
Almost raw sweet
potato cheesecake.
00:01:45.37\00:01:49.14
For the crust, we'll need:
00:01:49.17\00:01:51.17
For the filling, we need...
00:02:16.77\00:02:19.60
So we're gonna start
with the crust first.
00:02:52.67\00:02:55.40
And this is a real easy recipe.
00:02:55.44\00:02:59.71
I'm starting with my
pecans in my food processor.
00:02:59.74\00:03:04.85
And oat flour is
just ground oats.
00:03:04.88\00:03:08.42
And oats are not really
raw, they have been steamed,
00:03:08.45\00:03:12.52
the oat groats have been steamed
00:03:12.55\00:03:14.19
and then they're pressed.
00:03:14.22\00:03:15.96
So this is not really
raw but it is gluten free.
00:03:15.99\00:03:19.53
And then I have my dates.
00:03:22.66\00:03:24.57
Again, my date of
choice is Medjool dates
00:03:24.60\00:03:27.34
and they have been pitted.
00:03:27.37\00:03:29.47
My sea salt, but I'm
using Himalayan salt today.
00:03:34.34\00:03:40.22
Vanilla, lemon juice,
00:03:40.25\00:03:44.49
and always fresh lemon juice,
00:03:44.52\00:03:47.69
my coriander, and my cardamom.
00:03:47.72\00:03:50.33
And I use coriander and cardamom
00:03:53.26\00:03:55.23
instead of using cinnamon
00:03:55.26\00:04:00.14
because cinnamon
is a little irritating
00:04:00.17\00:04:02.14
to the stomach
so I use vary spices
00:04:02.17\00:04:06.07
that are
soothing to the stomach.
00:04:06.11\00:04:09.58
So then we have our coconut oil.
00:04:09.61\00:04:12.55
And then we process it.
00:04:15.82\00:04:18.45
You wanna make sure that
it is of a nice consistency,
00:04:36.07\00:04:40.14
and this is great.
00:04:40.18\00:04:41.64
So we have our springform pan.
00:04:41.68\00:04:44.98
Let me get this out of the way.
00:04:45.01\00:04:46.92
And we just put this
in our springform pan
00:04:49.28\00:04:54.16
and press it down.
00:04:54.19\00:04:58.19
And you can put
this in your freezer
00:04:58.23\00:05:02.16
or your
refrigerator for a little bit
00:05:02.20\00:05:04.43
so it will
harden up a little bit.
00:05:04.47\00:05:06.77
If you want it a little
solid because the coconut oil,
00:05:13.61\00:05:17.45
when it gets cold,
it's a little fuss.
00:05:17.48\00:05:22.28
So we're gonna put
it in our refrigerator.
00:05:22.32\00:05:24.45
And next, we have our filling.
00:05:32.99\00:05:37.07
And this is a fantastic filling.
00:05:37.10\00:05:40.94
I would like to drink
this, this is so delicious.
00:05:40.97\00:05:44.94
So we have our sweet
potatoes that have been baked.
00:05:44.97\00:05:49.01
And I've tried
to use this recipe
00:05:49.04\00:05:51.98
with raw sweet potatoes
00:05:52.01\00:05:53.65
but it tends to
be a little starchy.
00:05:53.68\00:05:55.52
So I just went
ahead and baked them,
00:05:55.55\00:05:58.55
and it tastes fabulous.
00:05:58.59\00:06:00.66
We have our cashews
that we've soaked overnight.
00:06:00.69\00:06:04.23
And the soaking of the
cashews make them softer,
00:06:04.26\00:06:08.80
and it makes the
cheesecake creamier,
00:06:08.83\00:06:13.57
and it also takes a
little of the fat out as well.
00:06:13.60\00:06:18.47
We have our maple syrup.
00:06:18.51\00:06:20.71
And if you don't
have maple syrup,
00:06:20.74\00:06:22.74
you can use honey.
00:06:22.78\00:06:25.88
And if a cup is too
much, you could, you know,
00:06:25.91\00:06:30.19
make it a little less sweeter.
00:06:30.22\00:06:32.42
We have our fresh ginger,
00:06:32.45\00:06:34.89
and our lecithin
which makes it creamy,
00:06:34.92\00:06:40.20
lemon juice,
00:06:40.23\00:06:43.30
coriander and cardamom...
00:06:43.33\00:06:45.43
Our coconut oil.
00:06:50.91\00:06:57.75
Vanilla, and our salt.
00:06:57.78\00:07:02.35
And last but not least,
this is our fresh carrot juice.
00:07:07.69\00:07:11.59
Oops! Wrong thing.
00:07:16.00\00:07:18.67
You wanna blend it till
it's a real smooth consistency,
00:07:47.26\00:07:52.20
so we're gonna
blend a little bit more.
00:07:52.23\00:07:54.40
That's it.
00:08:07.02\00:08:08.65
So let's go get our
crust out the refrigerator.
00:08:08.68\00:08:11.22
This is
excellent for the holidays
00:08:21.83\00:08:24.13
because it has a
reminisce of days going by
00:08:24.17\00:08:30.34
from my childhood,
00:08:30.37\00:08:31.94
and it has the
cardamom and the coriander
00:08:31.97\00:08:36.38
which is really, really festive.
00:08:36.41\00:08:38.65
So now all you
do is pour this in.
00:08:43.69\00:08:47.56
It's a real
thick, thick, mixture
00:08:47.59\00:08:49.72
so you wanna make
sure that you get it
00:08:49.76\00:08:51.56
all into your springform pan.
00:08:51.59\00:08:54.30
You wanna spread this out.
00:09:00.44\00:09:02.64
And then you wanna
pop it into your freezer
00:09:09.68\00:09:12.25
if you wanna eat it
in a couple of hours.
00:09:12.28\00:09:15.25
You pop it into your freezer,
and it will harden very quickly
00:09:15.28\00:09:20.32
or you can just
put it into the fridge
00:09:20.36\00:09:23.32
and it can get hard overnight.
00:09:23.36\00:09:27.60
And I have the finished recipe.
00:09:32.47\00:09:35.90
Now this is fit
for a king, isn't it?
00:09:48.68\00:09:51.22
It is beautiful.
00:09:51.25\00:09:52.59
I topped it off
with a little pecans
00:09:52.62\00:09:55.99
that have been
drizzled with maple syrup.
00:09:56.02\00:09:58.63
So you can decorate
it anyway that you want.
00:09:58.66\00:10:02.40
So this is another
great recipe for the holidays
00:10:02.43\00:10:05.50
with your Chef Evita Tezeno
00:10:05.53\00:10:07.67
in the kitchen of
Taste of Paradise,
00:10:07.70\00:10:09.67
and remember to live life fresh.
00:10:09.70\00:10:14.08
Welcome back, welcome back.
00:10:29.36\00:10:30.76
Holiday specials, we
always do something good
00:10:30.79\00:10:32.79
for the holidays.
00:10:32.83\00:10:34.16
However, this
time, we're gonna do
00:10:34.20\00:10:35.53
something simple,
something that we all enjoy,
00:10:35.56\00:10:37.87
that we all love, you know,
00:10:37.90\00:10:39.23
after we had that
delicious family meal
00:10:39.27\00:10:41.40
around
Thanksgiving or Christmas.
00:10:41.44\00:10:43.30
You know, we wake
up that next morning
00:10:43.34\00:10:44.67
and we want
something nice for breakfast,
00:10:44.71\00:10:46.78
you know,
something really sweet,
00:10:46.81\00:10:48.81
but not too sweet,
you know, just right mild.
00:10:48.84\00:10:51.78
And what do we do?
00:10:51.81\00:10:53.15
We take that slice of
bread and we whip on top of it,
00:10:53.18\00:10:55.95
not butter, but I'm
talking about some jam,
00:10:55.98\00:10:58.25
some good preserve.
00:10:58.29\00:10:59.85
You know, you cut
that, and you just eat that,
00:10:59.89\00:11:02.16
and you're hanging
out with the family.
00:11:02.19\00:11:03.93
And however, a
lot of people enjoy it
00:11:03.96\00:11:06.19
but most of them
don't know how to make it
00:11:06.23\00:11:08.46
or how to do it themselves.
00:11:08.50\00:11:09.83
So today, we're
gonna make a serious jam,
00:11:09.86\00:11:12.73
not the cheap
stuff, the real thing.
00:11:12.77\00:11:15.27
And matter of fact,
they call it a different way
00:11:15.30\00:11:16.67
because we'd be jamming here
today, they call it a preserve.
00:11:16.71\00:11:19.47
So I invited our special guest
00:11:19.51\00:11:20.94
back with us, her name is Donna.
00:11:20.98\00:11:22.74
Donna, how are
you? Fine. How are you?
00:11:22.78\00:11:24.41
Good to see you.
Good to see you again.
00:11:24.45\00:11:26.31
Thank you so much for coming out
00:11:26.35\00:11:27.72
and hanging out with us
again on the Taste of Paradise.
00:11:27.75\00:11:29.68
Thank you for having me.
00:11:29.72\00:11:31.05
Man, Donna does it all.
00:11:31.09\00:11:32.42
She's a nurse, what
else, a social worker,
00:11:32.45\00:11:34.89
most importantly her task,
00:11:34.92\00:11:36.66
her greatest work on
earth is to be a wife and...
00:11:36.69\00:11:40.16
And mom. And a mom.
00:11:40.20\00:11:41.53
So he has a kid,
so she can do it all.
00:11:41.56\00:11:44.40
Pray for me.
00:11:44.43\00:11:45.77
She's like, "Pray first."
00:11:45.80\00:11:47.14
She came and she shared with us
some simple recipes, you know.
00:11:47.17\00:11:50.77
Maybe again, you'll see
her all throughout of like,
00:11:50.81\00:11:54.24
what else, some
juice we'll look at making,
00:11:54.28\00:11:57.15
some jams, and
applesauce, and so many things
00:11:57.18\00:11:59.91
that you can do
yourself at home.
00:11:59.95\00:12:02.75
So thank you so much for
helping us out with that.
00:12:02.78\00:12:05.79
And what we're gonna
do today is that jam.
00:12:05.82\00:12:08.56
Yes, we're gonna make jam.
00:12:08.59\00:12:10.19
Now jam, is that a jelly?
00:12:10.23\00:12:11.69
A lot of us like peanut
butter and jelly which is good,
00:12:11.73\00:12:16.06
that's our all time favorite.
00:12:16.10\00:12:17.43
A matter of fact, some
people consider that a meal,
00:12:17.47\00:12:19.97
an entre, you know what I mean,
because that's all they eat.
00:12:20.00\00:12:22.57
But the jelly that goes on top
of it may cause some problems.
00:12:22.60\00:12:25.77
Yes. Yeah.
00:12:25.81\00:12:27.21
What's the problem
would you say with the jelly
00:12:27.24\00:12:28.64
or the jams that we buy?
00:12:28.68\00:12:30.01
I have to think about it.
00:12:30.05\00:12:31.38
I think there's a
difference between jam
00:12:31.41\00:12:33.21
and we'll have to
do a little research.
00:12:33.25\00:12:34.68
And jelly.
00:12:34.72\00:12:36.05
But there is a
difference between jam, jelly,
00:12:36.08\00:12:37.55
and preserves.
00:12:37.59\00:12:38.92
And the jelly is nothing
but like, sugar water or juice.
00:12:38.95\00:12:42.76
Sugar coagulate. Exactly.
00:12:42.79\00:12:45.59
Right, okay.
00:12:45.63\00:12:46.96
That's why when you
put it on your bread
00:12:47.00\00:12:48.33
and you have to
chase the jelly around.
00:12:48.36\00:12:49.70
Right, right, right.
00:12:49.73\00:12:51.27
Most of the time... Yeah.
00:12:51.30\00:12:52.63
And you got to look at
the ingredients because,
00:12:52.67\00:12:54.04
like I said, if the
first ingredient is sugar,
00:12:54.07\00:12:56.87
you know the
majority of what's in that jar
00:12:56.91\00:12:59.51
is going to be sugar.
00:12:59.54\00:13:00.88
And you hit that on the
head because a lot of the items
00:13:00.91\00:13:02.48
that we put on that
peanut butter and jelly,
00:13:02.51\00:13:05.05
especially with the
kids, is loaded with what?
00:13:05.08\00:13:07.62
Loaded with that sugar.
00:13:07.65\00:13:09.28
And we give it to the kids,
they wake up in the morning,
00:13:09.32\00:13:11.35
they eat the sugary cereal.
00:13:11.39\00:13:12.72
Right.
00:13:12.75\00:13:14.09
Then they have a peanut
butter and jelly sandwich.
00:13:14.12\00:13:16.19
And we wonder why these
kids can't sit still anymore.
00:13:16.22\00:13:19.06
You know what I mean.
00:13:19.09\00:13:20.43
They're on the bus, as I
was sharing, sometime ago,
00:13:20.46\00:13:23.33
they're on the bus
and before long time ago
00:13:23.37\00:13:25.43
when I used to be
young, I don't think
00:13:25.47\00:13:26.80
you were around back then.
00:13:26.84\00:13:28.17
A long time ago, we get on a bus
00:13:28.20\00:13:29.54
and it's just be a bus
driver, yeah, for like 50 kids.
00:13:29.57\00:13:32.57
Now the kids, they
act enough so much,
00:13:32.61\00:13:35.24
they have a bus
driver and an attendant.
00:13:35.28\00:13:37.91
And in some school districts,
they have a bus driver
00:13:37.95\00:13:40.02
and a police
officer, you know what I mean.
00:13:40.05\00:13:42.05
And a camera.
00:13:42.08\00:13:43.42
And a camera now on a bus.
00:13:43.45\00:13:45.05
It's because these
kids, their sugar is...
00:13:45.09\00:13:47.46
Off the chain.
It's off the chain.
00:13:47.49\00:13:48.99
And then you know what
happens, they go to school
00:13:49.02\00:13:51.06
and they can't sit anymore.
00:13:51.09\00:13:52.43
You are a social worker,
you have seen different cases.
00:13:52.46\00:13:54.80
And they're trying to learn math
00:13:54.83\00:13:56.70
but they just got the jitters
00:13:56.73\00:13:58.07
because their sugar
is through the roof,
00:13:58.10\00:13:59.43
and they're throwing stuff.
00:13:59.47\00:14:00.80
And you know
what end up happening?
00:14:00.84\00:14:02.37
The teacher says,
"This child has a," what?
00:14:02.40\00:14:04.61
Learning
disability. Learning disability.
00:14:04.64\00:14:07.08
Or emotional handicap
or emotional disability.
00:14:07.11\00:14:09.71
Or mentally retarded. Exactly.
00:14:09.74\00:14:11.61
Or ADD, or ADHD.
00:14:11.65\00:14:14.15
And next you know,
they put you on medication.
00:14:14.18\00:14:17.09
You know, I can talk
about this for a while
00:14:17.12\00:14:18.59
because they thought
something was wrong with me.
00:14:18.62\00:14:20.72
And they put you on medication
and then what happens?
00:14:20.76\00:14:23.29
The children,
they get depressed,
00:14:23.32\00:14:26.06
they're dealing with what?
00:14:26.09\00:14:27.93
Suicidal thoughts,
00:14:27.96\00:14:29.30
they're dealing with
so many different things.
00:14:29.33\00:14:30.97
I'll tell you how my
mom remedied that situation.
00:14:31.00\00:14:33.84
She saw my grades.
She says, "Excuse me."
00:14:33.87\00:14:36.74
She got one of
these and, you know,
00:14:36.77\00:14:38.57
she put a nice little curve,
00:14:38.61\00:14:40.44
you know, on
the back on my head.
00:14:40.48\00:14:41.81
Now I'm not
telling you to do that,
00:14:41.84\00:14:43.31
what you pulled off the, what?
00:14:43.35\00:14:44.81
The belt and stuff, and
man, she brought my sugar
00:14:44.85\00:14:47.98
down back to
normal in a heartbeat.
00:14:48.02\00:14:50.49
Now, of course, she
also changed the diet
00:14:50.52\00:14:52.35
because she was
studying and she found out that
00:14:52.39\00:14:54.06
too much sugar is
causing these problems.
00:14:54.09\00:14:55.72
And you know what?
00:14:55.76\00:14:57.09
I don't have to
take no medication.
00:14:57.13\00:14:58.46
The grades, by God's
grace, started to increase.
00:14:58.49\00:14:59.83
Praise the Lord.
00:14:59.86\00:15:01.20
And even though I
wanted to act up at school,
00:15:01.23\00:15:03.00
I just thought
about one of these,
00:15:03.03\00:15:04.70
or one of these on my backside,
00:15:04.73\00:15:06.97
if you know what I mean.
00:15:07.00\00:15:08.34
And things got corrected.
00:15:08.37\00:15:09.70
Now I'm not saying,
"Parents, you should do that,"
00:15:09.74\00:15:11.27
there's other ways to
discipline the children, Amen.
00:15:11.31\00:15:13.64
Time outs, or
something like that,
00:15:13.68\00:15:15.24
no videogames, whatever.
00:15:15.28\00:15:16.61
But you're a mom and so I'm sure
00:15:16.64\00:15:18.38
you have a
million ways to do that.
00:15:18.41\00:15:19.75
Well, I'll tell you this.
What you're saying is so true.
00:15:19.78\00:15:22.55
I mean, that's a
whole another show
00:15:22.58\00:15:24.19
just on to manage
sugar and the stuff
00:15:24.22\00:15:26.22
that people get through,
animal products or whatever
00:15:26.25\00:15:28.62
because that's a
thing, it does mimic.
00:15:28.66\00:15:30.69
Some of these kids are
allergic to this stuff,
00:15:30.73\00:15:32.49
they don't know it.
00:15:32.53\00:15:33.86
And it mimics
behavioral disorders,
00:15:33.90\00:15:36.70
and behavioral
problems, and things like that.
00:15:36.73\00:15:38.50
And when you change the
diet, it's interesting that
00:15:38.53\00:15:41.07
in a lot of these
cases the kids calm down.
00:15:41.10\00:15:43.74
They calm down. They calm down.
00:15:43.77\00:15:45.77
The research has been
done a million times over,
00:15:45.81\00:15:48.71
so we don't need to do
anymore but here's one way
00:15:48.74\00:15:50.71
we can do it, we
can make our own jam.
00:15:50.75\00:15:54.12
And we jam in
here with some jams.
00:15:54.15\00:15:56.32
What are some of the
jams we're going to make here?
00:15:56.35\00:15:57.69
So what we're gonna do, in this,
00:15:57.72\00:15:59.05
there's no recipe for this.
00:15:59.09\00:16:00.42
So if you want
the recipe call...
00:16:00.46\00:16:01.86
All right. But which one?
We'll look at grape first?
00:16:01.89\00:16:04.13
So we're gonna do grape.
00:16:04.16\00:16:05.49
So this is kind of interesting
00:16:05.53\00:16:06.86
because my mom
kind of discovered this.
00:16:06.90\00:16:09.46
We were juicing grapes,
00:16:09.50\00:16:11.53
and she ended up
with all this byproduct.
00:16:11.57\00:16:13.70
Once the grape steamed down,
00:16:13.74\00:16:15.57
you end up with
this pulp, this stuff.
00:16:15.60\00:16:18.61
And so she said, "Hmm,
00:16:18.64\00:16:20.64
maybe if I ran this
through my champion juicer
00:16:20.68\00:16:23.81
which could
extract a little bit more,
00:16:23.85\00:16:25.95
I wonder what I would get?"
00:16:25.98\00:16:27.48
And this is what my mom got.
00:16:27.52\00:16:29.32
So this is 100%
00:16:29.35\00:16:32.22
pure Concord grape pulp,
00:16:32.25\00:16:36.86
paste, whatever
you want to call it.
00:16:36.89\00:16:38.36
You all can see that here? Yes.
00:16:38.39\00:16:39.93
You all can see that.
Look at that, that's a 100%...
00:16:39.96\00:16:41.80
Now if you were to taste
this, you got to taste it.
00:16:41.83\00:16:44.13
Oh, mercy.
00:16:44.17\00:16:45.50
You would frown up
because there is no sugar,
00:16:45.53\00:16:48.30
there's nothing to it.
00:16:48.34\00:16:49.97
So, all right.
00:16:50.01\00:16:52.64
Halleluiah. Thank you.
00:16:52.67\00:16:54.08
We have some good stuff here.
00:16:54.11\00:16:55.44
Right, right.
00:16:55.48\00:16:56.81
So, what we're gonna do
because there is no sweetness
00:16:56.85\00:17:00.02
to this stuff whatsoever.
00:17:00.05\00:17:02.28
We've already steamed out,
00:17:02.32\00:17:03.79
we've got the
sweetness in our juice,
00:17:03.82\00:17:05.15
we did that already before.
00:17:05.19\00:17:06.52
Okay, but here's
something that people, you know,
00:17:06.55\00:17:09.12
a little guidance for
those who want to learn
00:17:09.16\00:17:11.23
and know what to put
together, you know what I mean.
00:17:11.26\00:17:13.29
Because not everybody could,
you know, just free style it.
00:17:13.33\00:17:15.80
So here's a simple
recipe for your jamming jam,
00:17:15.83\00:17:19.00
grape jam, here it is:
00:17:19.03\00:17:20.90
Hello, is there
anymore? Is that it?
00:17:27.64\00:17:29.01
That's it. That's it.
00:17:29.04\00:17:30.58
So now I see why you said
there really is no recipe.
00:17:30.61\00:17:34.38
But that's just
a little guidance
00:17:34.42\00:17:35.85
in that pulp jam
you get that from what?
00:17:35.88\00:17:37.75
After you make the grape...
After you make the grape juice.
00:17:37.79\00:17:40.62
Yeah, all that
stuff that's leftover.
00:17:40.66\00:17:42.29
The stuff that's leftover.
So what are we going to do now?
00:17:42.32\00:17:43.66
So I ran it
through the strainer,
00:17:43.69\00:17:45.03
and this is what I have.
00:17:45.06\00:17:46.39
So we're dumping
this into our blender.
00:17:46.43\00:17:48.63
So okay, that looks
like, what? Two cups.
00:17:48.66\00:17:51.53
Oh, yeah, more or less.
00:17:51.57\00:17:52.90
We'll dump it all in
there. We'll put it all in it.
00:17:52.93\00:17:54.74
So you have about
two cups of that there.
00:17:54.77\00:17:56.57
Okay, two cups. And then...
00:17:56.60\00:17:58.71
And here we go.
00:17:58.74\00:18:01.58
This is our, a cup.
00:18:01.61\00:18:03.01
So we'll be
jamming and then the jam.
00:18:03.04\00:18:05.65
Yeah, there's a cup.
00:18:05.68\00:18:07.02
Wait a second, sister.
00:18:07.05\00:18:08.85
Wait a second.
00:18:08.88\00:18:10.22
All right. Here's
our other cup there.
00:18:10.25\00:18:11.59
Okay, so there's your cup.
00:18:11.62\00:18:12.95
But of course, when you're home,
00:18:12.99\00:18:14.32
you can do it how
you want to do it there.
00:18:14.36\00:18:15.69
Okay, so we're gonna put
the lid on this and blend it.
00:18:15.72\00:18:18.06
So we're gonna put the lid.
So I move this out of your way.
00:18:18.09\00:18:19.89
You can switch over there.
00:18:19.93\00:18:21.93
And we get the
blender going. Okay.
00:18:21.96\00:18:24.60
You like our
holiday blender here?
00:18:24.63\00:18:26.07
I like the holiday
blender, you got to hook me up.
00:18:26.10\00:18:28.30
All right, so here it is.
And then we just blend it.
00:18:28.34\00:18:30.17
So what? Are we
on, are we secured?
00:18:30.21\00:18:31.67
So it's creamy or what? Yes.
00:18:31.71\00:18:33.91
I like a creamy, creamier jam.
00:18:33.94\00:18:36.38
I mean, you can...
00:18:36.41\00:18:38.41
If you want more chunky,
00:18:38.45\00:18:39.78
then you'll have
to blend it as smooth.
00:18:39.81\00:18:41.15
Blend it as much.
00:18:41.18\00:18:42.52
I think we're good.
00:18:56.06\00:18:58.50
There we go.
00:18:58.53\00:18:59.87
I was trying to
make grape paste here.
00:18:59.90\00:19:01.97
Okay, so let's taste it.
00:19:02.00\00:19:03.84
See if it's to the
sweetness that you like.
00:19:03.87\00:19:05.81
Will I get to do it
again? Yes, if you like it.
00:19:05.84\00:19:07.81
Man, this looks like ice-cream
or something like that.
00:19:07.84\00:19:10.05
Don't worry, just try it.
00:19:10.08\00:19:12.55
Hmm.
00:19:12.58\00:19:13.92
Okay, okay, okay.
00:19:13.95\00:19:15.55
Let me try. Let
me try. Let me try.
00:19:15.58\00:19:18.25
Wait, wait, usually, but
you already have this already.
00:19:18.29\00:19:20.09
Let me try.
00:19:20.12\00:19:21.66
That is where is at.
00:19:21.69\00:19:24.26
Halleluiah.
00:19:24.29\00:19:25.63
Okay, here we go. Wait a second.
00:19:25.66\00:19:27.00
This thing is so
good, you have to be jamming
00:19:27.03\00:19:28.36
and singing.
00:19:28.40\00:19:29.73
So, man, that is pretty good.
00:19:29.76\00:19:31.40
That's good,
that's good. That's it.
00:19:31.43\00:19:33.30
Now you can freeze
this, you can can it.
00:19:33.34\00:19:36.40
We have these little
cute jars if you want.
00:19:36.44\00:19:38.54
You can can it, you can
freeze it in zip lock bags.
00:19:38.57\00:19:41.51
You can put it in Tupperware
and put it in the refrigerator,
00:19:41.54\00:19:44.01
ready to go.
00:19:44.05\00:19:45.38
So I'm gonna pour
this in. This is good.
00:19:45.41\00:19:47.82
Oh! Look at that, y'all.
00:19:47.85\00:19:51.35
And this is what I give
away for Christmas gifts.
00:19:51.39\00:19:53.52
No way. Yeah.
00:19:53.56\00:19:55.32
Okay, so you don't have to
do it all the way to the top.
00:19:55.36\00:19:57.63
I'm saying, I want my
Christmas gift before.
00:19:57.66\00:19:59.69
Are you trying to short
change my Christmas gift?
00:19:59.73\00:20:01.26
So if we were canning that,
we would not have it that full.
00:20:01.30\00:20:04.67
But that's in another
show or another program.
00:20:04.70\00:20:06.74
Another program, all right.
00:20:06.77\00:20:08.10
So you have
that, then you just...
00:20:08.14\00:20:09.47
So now, what
we're going to do is,
00:20:09.50\00:20:11.74
you got to taste this.
00:20:11.77\00:20:13.11
You got to taste
this. Oh, my goodness!
00:20:13.14\00:20:14.74
Here, have a
little bit on the bread.
00:20:14.78\00:20:16.11
Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man.
00:20:16.14\00:20:17.65
All right. So we
have our grape jam.
00:20:17.68\00:20:20.12
Now you mentioned
there was some differences.
00:20:20.15\00:20:21.85
You say grape jelly
per se is what, is...?
00:20:21.88\00:20:25.79
Jelly tends to be
juice, fruit juice.
00:20:25.82\00:20:29.52
Yeah. That's good.
00:20:29.56\00:20:30.89
That's good. Mademoiselle!
00:20:30.93\00:20:33.96
Man, I feel like I'm in France
with this stuff right here.
00:20:34.00\00:20:35.53
All right. So that's
good. So we make grape jam.
00:20:35.56\00:20:39.33
So now what we're going to do,
00:20:39.37\00:20:40.70
we're going to do the
same thing, same recipe
00:20:40.74\00:20:42.50
except we're going to do
with, I think with peach.
00:20:42.54\00:20:45.87
Peaches are next,
or is it strawberry?
00:20:45.91\00:20:47.34
Well, hold on.
00:20:47.38\00:20:48.71
You see that grape
jelly is basically like, what?
00:20:48.74\00:20:52.21
Sugar water with the
color in or let's say juice
00:20:52.25\00:20:55.68
and that coagulate, right?
00:20:55.72\00:20:57.05
And all that this is grape paste
00:20:57.09\00:20:59.82
or the leftover residual
stuff from the steamed grapes,
00:20:59.85\00:21:03.12
and dehydrated pineapple.
00:21:03.16\00:21:05.03
So the jam is a little
bit more and then a preserve.
00:21:05.06\00:21:07.80
Right. That's it.
00:21:07.83\00:21:09.36
I didn't add anything
else in there or whatever.
00:21:09.40\00:21:11.20
So what a preserve is?
00:21:11.23\00:21:12.57
Oh, so the
preserves tend to be...
00:21:12.60\00:21:14.24
They are more chunkier,
00:21:14.27\00:21:15.60
they have more whole
pieces of fruit in everything.
00:21:15.64\00:21:18.54
And preserves are good.
00:21:18.57\00:21:19.91
I just, you know, I
don't want a big piece of fruit
00:21:19.94\00:21:22.38
but, you know, if you chop it up
00:21:22.41\00:21:23.75
or whatever, mush it up.
00:21:23.78\00:21:25.31
You sure you're going
to leave that grapes jam
00:21:25.35\00:21:26.68
a little too long here?
00:21:26.72\00:21:28.05
No, I do. I do.
00:21:28.08\00:21:29.42
And I'm feeling like
I'm about to fly away here.
00:21:29.45\00:21:30.79
So the other thing I
also forgot to tell you
00:21:30.82\00:21:32.59
is that with this
dehydrated pineapple,
00:21:32.62\00:21:34.59
you can get this from
any health food store,
00:21:34.62\00:21:36.29
it does not have
the sulfur on it.
00:21:36.32\00:21:38.76
So a lot of dehydrated
fruit has sulfur with it
00:21:38.79\00:21:42.00
or color for preservative and...
00:21:42.03\00:21:45.03
I think about sulfur
when I go to like a whirlpool
00:21:45.07\00:21:47.70
or something or a hot springs.
00:21:47.74\00:21:49.30
But I don't want
to be eating sulfur.
00:21:49.34\00:21:50.67
Right.
00:21:50.71\00:21:52.04
And did you know that
people who actually mine sulfur,
00:21:52.07\00:21:53.81
their life expectancy
is literally like almost
00:21:53.84\00:21:56.38
half of what the
average, you know, person is.
00:21:56.41\00:21:58.95
So I don't want to eat sulfur,
00:21:58.98\00:22:00.32
so I look for
dehydrated pineapple.
00:22:00.35\00:22:02.12
And literally, this
will last me a long time.
00:22:02.15\00:22:05.55
You don't need a
lot in order to add
00:22:05.59\00:22:08.46
a little bit of
sweetness with this.
00:22:08.49\00:22:09.96
So now we're going
to do the next recipe
00:22:09.99\00:22:12.29
which I think it was
peaches or was this strawberry?
00:22:12.33\00:22:14.60
Well, people like peaches, yeah.
00:22:14.63\00:22:16.06
So here's the simple...
00:22:16.10\00:22:17.47
Watch this, look how simple.
00:22:17.50\00:22:18.83
We're going be
jamming the peach jam.
00:22:18.87\00:22:20.40
And all you need is:
00:22:20.44\00:22:21.77
Exactly.
00:22:26.17\00:22:27.51
So all we're doing is
we're just adding peaches.
00:22:27.54\00:22:29.74
And this is so
amazing, like I said,
00:22:29.78\00:22:31.31
my mom kind of came
across this like, "Oh,
00:22:31.35\00:22:34.05
what am I going to do
with this extra stuff?"
00:22:34.08\00:22:35.85
And this has become
the hit in her home,
00:22:35.88\00:22:40.02
especially for Sabbath dinner.
00:22:40.06\00:22:41.92
We find ourselves,
there's a cup, maybe less.
00:22:41.96\00:22:45.66
Are you sure? It may
need a little extra love.
00:22:45.69\00:22:48.23
This is our holidays, y'all.
00:22:48.26\00:22:49.60
Okay. There you go.
00:22:49.63\00:22:50.97
So we're going to blend that up,
00:22:51.00\00:22:52.33
do the same thing
that we did before.
00:22:52.37\00:22:53.70
Now this is too easy.
00:22:53.74\00:22:55.10
It's very easy. Too easy.
00:22:55.14\00:22:56.47
People will be like
"Oh, you got to make jam,
00:22:56.50\00:22:57.84
you got to mash dish,
you got to hold it there,
00:22:57.87\00:23:00.31
and you got to
put it like this."
00:23:00.34\00:23:01.88
And I'm like, you know what,
let me just go and buy some.
00:23:01.91\00:23:03.41
Yeah, yeah.
00:23:03.45\00:23:04.78
But if it's this
easy like... Okay.
00:23:04.81\00:23:06.61
So all we're doing is
just go ahead and blend it up.
00:23:06.65\00:23:08.95
All right. So then we
mix it up a little bit there.
00:23:17.06\00:23:19.03
Okay.
00:23:19.06\00:23:21.16
Or you can add just
a little bit of water.
00:23:21.20\00:23:23.06
A little bit of
water could do the trick.
00:23:23.10\00:23:24.77
So I'm looking at that
00:23:28.74\00:23:30.51
and that is
getting a little thick.
00:23:30.54\00:23:32.97
It's getting thick
because we used the frozen ones.
00:23:33.01\00:23:36.24
But you just mix it up.
00:23:36.28\00:23:37.61
This is going to be
the fruit right here.
00:23:37.65\00:23:41.25
All right, so you have a
little water there for me.
00:23:41.28\00:23:42.75
Yeah, so check this out.
00:23:42.78\00:23:45.69
Man, but I
wanted this with just...
00:23:45.72\00:23:47.69
Can I try it one more
time? Okay, try one more time.
00:23:47.72\00:23:49.39
You know, I don't like
watered down business, you know.
00:23:49.42\00:23:52.26
So, all right. Let's try.
00:23:52.29\00:23:55.63
We need to add a
little water here.
00:23:59.03\00:24:00.37
Go ahead and add a
little bit of water.
00:24:00.40\00:24:01.74
So we're going to add a
little bit of water to it.
00:24:01.77\00:24:03.30
But can you imagine, if
we add a little bit of water
00:24:03.34\00:24:05.81
when these things are
done in a factory and stuff,
00:24:05.84\00:24:08.18
they might add so many
other different things to it.
00:24:08.21\00:24:11.08
There we go. Here we go.
00:24:11.11\00:24:12.91
It almost feels
like we're making...
00:24:12.95\00:24:15.25
Well, I guess
because it's frozen peaches,
00:24:15.28\00:24:16.95
so if it was the fresh
peach, it'll be no problem.
00:24:16.99\00:24:18.85
There you go.
00:24:18.89\00:24:20.39
Okay, there we go.
00:24:35.64\00:24:37.04
So let's pour that in there.
00:24:37.07\00:24:38.41
What happened
was, I was enjoying it.
00:24:38.44\00:24:40.58
Okay, so go ahead
and pour it in there.
00:24:40.61\00:24:41.94
What happened to
the taste task again?
00:24:41.98\00:24:43.31
Oh, my bad.
00:24:43.35\00:24:45.15
There you go.
00:24:45.18\00:24:46.51
You know, I've
never eaten this much
00:24:46.55\00:24:47.92
on the program before.
00:24:47.95\00:24:49.32
Hallelujah.
00:24:52.69\00:24:54.02
You feel like you're in Georgia,
00:24:54.06\00:24:55.39
eating a southern peach.
00:24:55.42\00:24:56.76
I will go back
again but, you know,
00:24:56.79\00:24:58.13
I want everybody
else to have some so.
00:24:58.16\00:24:59.49
So we're going to
pour that in there.
00:24:59.53\00:25:01.33
Now remember, if
we were canning this,
00:25:01.36\00:25:02.96
we would not pour it
all the way to the top.
00:25:03.00\00:25:06.70
But we're going to
have to eat this right away.
00:25:06.74\00:25:08.14
Look at that. Look
at the color, you guys.
00:25:08.17\00:25:10.74
Look at the color.
00:25:10.77\00:25:12.11
Fill it up and let it over flow.
00:25:12.14\00:25:13.48
I'm telling you.
00:25:13.51\00:25:14.84
Okay. So we're gonna do...
00:25:14.88\00:25:16.21
What happened, we didn't
do the bread test though.
00:25:16.24\00:25:17.58
Oh, we didn't do the bread test.
00:25:17.61\00:25:18.95
Okay. Hold a
minute. Hold a minute.
00:25:18.98\00:25:20.32
Yeah, this is
really, this is really good.
00:25:20.35\00:25:21.68
Work it out. Work
it out. Work it out.
00:25:21.72\00:25:23.05
Watch it. Watch it.
You're gonna hurt yourself.
00:25:23.08\00:25:24.42
Oh, sister, you got
to be a little generous.
00:25:24.45\00:25:26.09
It's the holidays.
00:25:26.12\00:25:27.82
There you go.
Now I tell you this.
00:25:27.86\00:25:29.92
The other thing that
you could do with this
00:25:29.96\00:25:31.29
is put it over your pancakes.
00:25:31.33\00:25:34.40
Put it over your waffles.
00:25:34.43\00:25:37.43
You can put it over oatmeal,
whatever you want to do.
00:25:37.47\00:25:40.04
This thing is so good.
00:25:40.07\00:25:41.40
You'll be
feeling for stuff here.
00:25:41.44\00:25:42.77
Yeah. Okay.
00:25:42.80\00:25:44.14
So the last recipe
we're going to do is,
00:25:44.17\00:25:45.81
same thing, strawberries.
00:25:45.84\00:25:47.18
What's the recipe, guys?
00:25:47.21\00:25:48.94
It's just nothing but
dehydrated, there you go.
00:25:48.98\00:25:51.61
We're gonna jam
some strawberries.
00:25:54.88\00:25:57.12
As simple as that. This
is some good stuff here.
00:25:57.15\00:25:59.22
So now we're gonna
do the strawberry jam.
00:25:59.25\00:26:00.59
We're gonna do the strawberries.
00:26:00.62\00:26:01.96
All right. So we have this.
00:26:01.99\00:26:03.79
And you can either
use frozen strawberries
00:26:03.83\00:26:05.49
or fresh strawberries
which we've already washed.
00:26:05.53\00:26:07.60
We already washed
that, so it's all good.
00:26:07.63\00:26:10.97
See if you want to
try with the fresh.
00:26:11.00\00:26:12.73
So we try this, a
little bit with the fresh,
00:26:12.77\00:26:14.30
maybe you could drop
in one or two frozen.
00:26:14.34\00:26:15.70
Okay. Okay.
00:26:15.74\00:26:17.07
And we need
about, what, two cups?
00:26:17.11\00:26:19.31
There you go. That's about it.
00:26:19.34\00:26:20.68
That's enough.
That's enough. All right.
00:26:20.71\00:26:22.04
So go ahead and enjoy this.
00:26:22.08\00:26:24.08
Okay, here we go.
00:26:24.11\00:26:25.45
And with the
strawberry one though,
00:26:25.48\00:26:27.62
the coolest thing about
this, you say sometimes,
00:26:27.65\00:26:29.15
these things are on sale.
00:26:29.18\00:26:30.52
They're on sale.
00:26:30.55\00:26:31.89
And so, what do
you do? Buy them.
00:26:31.92\00:26:34.56
You buy, literally, she says
she buys almost all of them.
00:26:34.59\00:26:37.49
So you could get
a phenomenal deal,
00:26:37.53\00:26:40.90
you know, sometimes
they about two dollars...
00:26:40.93\00:26:42.86
And my bad, what
was the recipe again?
00:26:42.90\00:26:44.57
The recipe was the two cups.
00:26:44.60\00:26:46.53
And two to one, two to
one, as simple as that.
00:26:46.57\00:26:49.14
And you can buy
that whole thing.
00:26:49.17\00:26:50.74
And what you do
when you buy all of it?
00:26:50.77\00:26:52.47
I buy all of it and
clean them, and prepare them,
00:26:52.51\00:26:55.81
and put them, freeze
them, whatever you wanna do.
00:26:55.84\00:26:57.58
You can freeze
them or you can start
00:26:57.61\00:26:58.95
making some strawberry
jam, that's all I guess.
00:26:58.98\00:27:00.38
So here it is.
00:27:00.42\00:27:01.75
This is how
simple it is to make.
00:27:01.78\00:27:03.12
There you go. All right.
00:27:13.13\00:27:15.10
Now almost, they're
like a strawberry smoothie.
00:27:15.13\00:27:17.13
Almost a strawberry smoothie.
00:27:17.17\00:27:18.60
Almost. But we
have the strawberry jam.
00:27:18.63\00:27:20.14
So what are we gonna
do? We just gonna pour it.
00:27:20.17\00:27:21.64
We just going to
pour it in there.
00:27:21.67\00:27:23.00
Oh, we forgot to do the tasting.
00:27:23.04\00:27:24.37
Look at the color.
00:27:24.41\00:27:25.74
You don't even have
to add any preservatives
00:27:25.77\00:27:27.11
or anything like that in there.
00:27:27.14\00:27:28.48
Okay. Check it
out, check it out.
00:27:28.51\00:27:29.84
Here's our clean spoon
because we don't double dip.
00:27:29.88\00:27:32.41
At home we do.
00:27:32.45\00:27:34.35
Here you go, here
you go, here you go.
00:27:34.38\00:27:35.72
That's why you say extra prayer
when you go to people's houses.
00:27:35.75\00:27:38.35
There you go.
00:27:38.39\00:27:39.75
It just keeps getting better...
00:27:39.79\00:27:41.22
That's all it is. And better.
00:27:41.26\00:27:43.46
So three recipes, easy breezy.
00:27:43.49\00:27:45.63
You know what you're gonna do,
even with those cakes and stuff
00:27:45.66\00:27:47.70
that you make like a
tofu cheesecake or whatever,
00:27:47.73\00:27:49.70
you can use this as a what?
00:27:49.73\00:27:51.07
You can drizzle that in there.
00:27:51.10\00:27:52.43
I wonder if we could
make ice cream with this.
00:27:52.47\00:27:53.80
Probably even make
that ice cream as well.
00:27:53.84\00:27:55.47
So here are the simple
things that you can do.
00:27:55.50\00:27:58.11
And make sure you
jam it up with some jams
00:27:58.14\00:28:00.68
for the holidays
and for every one.
00:28:00.71\00:28:02.78
And have that
peanut butter and jelly.
00:28:02.81\00:28:04.58
Enjoy. Enjoy.
00:28:04.61\00:28:06.35
