00:45 I want to spend my life
00:51 Mending broken people
01:08 Hello and welcome to our 3ABN today,
01:11 cooking program.
01:13 We are the "Micheff Sisters."
01:15 I'm Linda. I'm Brenda.
01:17 And I'm Cinda.
01:18 Wonder why if anybody wonders
01:20 why we always say it in that order?
01:22 Do you know?
01:23 They might be guessing about that.
01:25 I don't think it's important.
01:26 Oh, yeah.
01:28 Are you wondered why we always say--
01:30 All right, all right, I'm the oldest.
01:33 And I'm the middle.
01:35 And I'm the baby.
01:37 Actually it somebody asked me that recently--
01:39 Oh, my.
01:40 When I was speaking in Toronto, Canada and they said,
01:44 "Why is that that you girls always do it the same way?"
01:48 And so I told them they said,
01:49 "well, you got to share that sometime."
01:51 I said, okay, well, "Next time, I will."
01:53 And actually Linda named me,
01:56 because when mom was pregnant with me,
02:00 it was Linda and Brenda
02:03 and Linda just started calling mom's new baby,
02:07 Cinda and mom liked it.
02:09 So now you know,
02:12 probably more information than you wanted off.
02:15 But something that I do know
02:17 you're gonna be wanting to know,
02:18 is what are we fixing today?
02:20 What is on the menu?
02:22 Shall we tell them?
02:23 Oh, yes.
02:24 Soup and crackers.
02:27 Daddy's favorite.
02:28 That's right.
02:29 And momma's favorite for crackers.
02:31 Well daddy's favorite is actually sandwiches and sou.
02:33 That's right.
02:34 But-- so we'll please both dad and mom today.
02:37 That's right, because mom loves the crackers
02:39 and dad loves the soup,
02:40 so we got soup and crackers.
02:41 And I don't know about you, sisters,
02:43 but I really had a hard time
02:45 narrowing it down to one recipe to share for soup,
02:48 because we're doing one recipe for soup
02:50 and one for crackers.
02:51 And I really had a hard time
02:53 because I've so many soups that I love.
02:55 I love butternut quash soup.
02:57 I just love.
02:58 I love the creamy soups and I love the--
03:01 I love the hardy vegetable soups and--
03:04 I love it all.
03:05 I just love soup.
03:07 It's such a comfort food.
03:08 My husband loves the chunky soups.
03:10 He wants lots of vegetables, little broth.
03:13 I like lots of broth and little vegetables.
03:16 So we get along, great.
03:19 And so today, I think we each chose something different
03:24 obviously because we think, so much alike,
03:25 we have to share with each other
03:27 what you're doing,
03:28 because we'll end up doing the same thing.
03:29 Well, it's, whoever gets the recipe done, the first--
03:31 Ends up with and celebrate it now.
03:33 And submit it first--
03:34 That's right.
03:36 Well, I have to confess--
03:39 Yes.
03:40 To--how I came up with my recipe--
03:43 Is I had-- you know,
03:44 I always have a lot of people over. Yes.
03:47 When I'm home,--
03:48 She's "Ms Entertainer of the year."
03:49 My house is full of people.
03:51 And so I had a lot of people over
03:52 and I had bought a lot of broccoli.
03:57 And so they left, I mean, I'm saying,
03:59 I had bought a lot of broccoli.
04:02 And so I looked-- How much was that?
04:05 A lot of broccoli,
04:08 and I went-- I think I'll make broccoli soup.
04:14 And it's delicious.
04:15 Why don't we just share it then
04:17 what we did make? Yes.
04:18 Are you curious?
04:19 I know, I am, I want Linda's recipe.
04:21 Well, our first recipe that we're gonna be starting with
04:23 is Linda's recipe-- Yes, right--
04:26 Which is?
04:27 It's my Tomato Black Bean soup.
04:29 And that is delicious.
04:31 And then next on the agenda is Potato Mushroom Soup,
04:35 and that's beautiful creamy base soup.
04:38 And it's delicious.
04:39 And then I'll be preparing--
04:41 Creamy
04:42 Creamy broccoli soup,
04:44 and then-- I have Savory Saltines to share.
04:48 That's right.
04:49 And then I have--And then Whole Grain Crackers.
04:51 And I have, Wheat Thins.
04:53 Wow, so we have three different types of crackers,
04:56 three different types of soups.
04:58 I think we're ready to go.
05:00 Which one of we're gonna start with, right here?
05:01 The tomato black bean.
05:03 All right, do you want to read the recipe?
05:04 All right, I'll read the recipe.
05:40 Now, if you didn't get all that
05:42 don't worry don't panic.
05:43 In fact, just relax back in your--
05:45 Right.
05:46 In your chair and put your feet up
05:47 and just enjoy the program,
05:49 because you can get those recipes online.
05:51 You can go to 3ABN.org,
05:53 click on recipes you can get in there,
05:55 and you can also visit our website,
05:57 mischeffsisters.com.
05:59 And you-- all of the recipes there,
06:01 and we also included picture of the recipes,
06:02 so you know what it's supposed to look like
06:04 when you're done.
06:05 So don't worry about copying down the thing,
06:07 just enjoy the program.
06:10 And if you like other vegetables, actually
06:12 you can put them in this soup.
06:14 Just add a little bit more water
06:16 and you can add a little bit pinch more salt
06:18 if you want to make the soup.
06:21 So if you can add other vegetables with that--
06:23 I just like it simple.
06:24 So that's why-- Well, mom always taught us
06:26 whenever anybody was coming over unexpectedly,
06:29 just put a little more water on the soup,
06:31 just do a little more seasoning in to it,
06:32 and you're good.
06:34 In fact, I have three cups of water in here,
06:36 but say if I was gonna-- this cooks down
06:38 and it gets a little thick,
06:39 so like you did have company coming over,
06:42 you want it to thinner,
06:43 you just put a little more water
06:45 with some more seasoning in it,
06:46 just put it in, and it's fine.
06:49 Or could you turn this into refrigerator soup.
06:52 You know, refrigerator, you just dump in every thing
06:54 you have left--
06:56 Oh, I was wondering what that was.
06:59 Well, I could, if I knew what it was.
07:03 Whatever is in the fridge, just dump in there.
07:05 Whatever is in the refrigerator put it in the soup.
07:07 Well, sis, can you turn that fire on?
07:09 I can.
07:10 I know, spaghetti soup might be pretty interesting.
07:13 Do you know what?
07:14 I have put that in soup before,
07:16 and people have loved it.
07:17 It is delicious.
07:19 I've put left over spaghetti in my soup before--
07:22 And they were like-- wow, this is really good.
07:24 It gives it a wonderful flavor.
07:26 I am gonna put the tomatoes in.
07:28 Okay, sis, you're on.
07:29 I'm gonna make it for you.
07:31 All right.
07:32 All right.
07:33 And then I'm gonna put the tomatoes
07:35 with the green chilies that gives out
07:36 just a little bit of punch to it, spice.
07:40 Okay. I like punch to my soup.
07:43 You do? Okay.
07:45 A right cross, a left cross.
07:47 Okay, and then we have the celery
07:50 and the carrots.
07:53 And notice that we do have some color going on in here,
07:55 these onions are pre-cooked,
07:57 so I'm putting cooked onions in here.
08:01 I just like it better, I don't always put it in soups,
08:05 but I do like it really done.
08:06 If you watch from any of our cooking programs
08:08 you soon realize that not any of us like raw onions.
08:11 So we got our--
08:12 So whatever onions we do use-- we love onions,
08:14 they just have to be really dead.
08:15 Now, we've got our black beans.
08:17 Now, we're gonna put in our Bragg's Liquid Aminos,
08:20 which is an unfermented soy sauce. So--
08:23 Can I use garlic in it?
08:24 Yes, you can put the garlic in,
08:26 and then we have our McKay's chicken seasoning.
08:29 It's-- that's one of my favorite seasonings.
08:32 I'll get it.
08:33 Well, that's squirt it out there.
08:35 And then we have our, a little bit of cayenne pepper.
08:36 You can leave it out, if you don't want it.
08:39 Okay, thanks, sis.
08:41 Let me add a little cumin,
08:44 and then we have our half a tea spoon of salt.
08:46 Did I leave some in there?
08:48 You did. You know what?
08:49 I know mom's watching,
08:50 so I think you got to get your better job there.
08:53 We grew up very poor,
08:55 and mom-- Was very good.
08:56 Did not waste anything.
08:58 No.
09:00 And so it has been set in our minds for all these years.
09:04 Do not waste.
09:05 In fact, we were visiting mom and dad in this--
09:08 and someone came up for the church and she said,
09:10 "We just want to know, we watch your girls cooking,"
09:12 she said, "Do you really look, watch and see
09:15 if they're getting everything out the bowl?"
09:17 Mom says, "I sure do."
09:22 But you know what?
09:23 They didn't go in debt--
09:25 No.
09:26 They lived within their means with five children and--
09:29 So there's something to be said for sometimes
09:31 being through ruins and you know,
09:32 not being wasteful and you know, it's--
09:36 And mom taught us how to be creative
09:38 with our cooking, too, because she used what she had.
09:42 You didn't just go to the grocery store and say,
09:44 "Oh, I'm gonna make this."
09:46 She looked in her cupboard
09:48 and then her refrigerator and said,
09:49 "Now what can I make from this?"
09:51 I remember when daddy came home from work one time,
09:54 he saw some little sausages and he goes,
09:58 "Wow! Sausages."
10:00 And so, it were vegetarian ones, you know,
10:02 but he picked one up and ate it and then he goes,
10:04 "Beans, they're beans."
10:08 Mom says, "Well, I just thought
10:09 to shake them a little tempered
10:11 and I'll bake them in the oven."
10:15 We thought they were good.
10:16 Well, something that is good too
10:18 is my Potato Mushroom soup.
10:21 Well, first of all-- Oh, yes.
10:22 Can we show them what it looks like
10:23 Let's show, when it's all done, it's all thick.
10:26 Good job, sis.
10:28 And you can see how that did thicken up.
10:30 It's a thick, hardy soup.
10:31 It is a thick, hardy soup.
10:33 It is.
10:34 It's beautiful and I love that little garnish on top.
10:37 Now, we're gonna show you and let me read the recipe
10:39 for my potato mushroom soup.
11:26 Now I absolutely love mushroom soup. So--
11:29 and I love potatoes.
11:31 And I love potatoes, too.
11:33 And I actually had never
11:35 put this combination together before
11:37 but when we were getting,
11:39 you know, our soup ideas together and I've thinking,
11:41 what can I do?
11:42 I haven't done before.
11:44 And it just, you know--
11:45 You said, my sister Cinda loves potatoes.
11:48 I did think about that.
11:50 I absolutely think about that.
11:51 Anytime I look at a potato, I do think about you. So--
11:54 Because I look like potato.
11:55 No, you don't look. And I love mushrooms.
11:57 But I know how much you love them.
11:59 And so, what I do is,
12:00 I look around my house when I'm creating,
12:01 what do I have in my fridge?
12:03 That's what I do. What gives me and idea?
12:04 What I have in my cover?
12:06 What I have here that I can throw together
12:07 and create a recipe?
12:09 And so that's how I just came up--
12:11 Because that's what mom taught us.
12:12 With potatoes, I had mushrooms on and I was like,
12:13 I have not made a potato mushroom soup, let's try that.
12:17 So I have for, for time sake, already pre-cooked them,
12:22 potatoes and the celery and--
12:26 Onions.
12:27 May be just, may be this is hot,
12:28 so let me put this over here.
12:30 And the onions. And onions.
12:31 So what I've done here, it's all cooked,
12:34 because I wanted to be able to show rest of the steps,
12:36 when we prepare this.
12:38 Linda has got mushroom sautéing
12:40 in a table spoon of soy margarine.
12:42 You're gonna sprinkle that with a little salt.
12:44 And I have chosen to go with the margarine
12:47 for the flavor.
12:49 If you don't want to use the soy margarine,
12:51 and you say, "I don't like using that."
12:52 That's not a problem, use a drizzle of olive oil,
12:56 or you can use the nonstick cooking spray,
12:59 even if you want.
13:01 But I like the flavor.
13:02 So that's what, I went with that for the flavor for this.
13:05 And she's gonna cook those up
13:06 and really get them nice and golden brown,
13:08 and while that is happening, you can see, I've got,
13:11 let me get another spatula over here.
13:14 I've got the-- potatoes are all cooked.
13:16 And what I did when I started this was I put my water
13:18 in the pan, put the onions and the celery
13:21 and you let that all cook and get nice and tender.
13:26 You have to go through this step first, because,
13:28 otherwise when you add all your rest ingredients
13:31 in any type of cream soup, you don't want to cook it
13:33 for a whole long time in there
13:34 because it gets kind of crudely in,
13:36 you don't want to want that, it's not gonna be great.
13:38 So you cook until your potatoes are tender.
13:40 Cook it until potatoes are tender and Cinda had--
13:43 Then you don't-- No problem checking,
13:44 she actually tested this to make sure
13:46 the potatoes were tender.
13:48 And they're tender.
13:49 Oh, yes, she loves potatoes.
13:50 you don't drain the water.
13:52 I don't.
13:53 The leftover water you leave in there.
13:54 That's right.
13:56 And sometimes it won't be leftover water,
13:57 so you will just be all, it'll soak,
13:59 you know, cook it right up.
14:00 But now we've got our unsweetened almond milk,
14:03 and just so you know, in the recipe,
14:05 I should have put in there, and separated it,
14:07 should've said slurry
14:09 ingredients, because you might--
14:11 there's almond milk listed twice and you might go,
14:13 why is there almond milk listed twice?
14:15 There should've been a separate thing
14:17 that said slurry, and then you know,
14:19 the two tablespoons of the orange starch
14:21 and two tablespoons of the cold almond milk,
14:23 that was for your slurry to mix up.
14:25 So don't-- I'm sorry about that confusion.
14:28 And so sis, would you dump all
14:30 the parsley in and the celery, salt?
14:33 And so here we go--
14:36 Is she making the slurry down there?
14:38 And, Cindy, can you make the slurry?
14:40 Okay.
14:41 And--
14:43 And the reason why you do this is because
14:46 we're putting cornstarch into a liquid
14:49 and anytime you add cornstarch to a liquid,
14:52 you need to make sure that the liquid is cold.
14:54 That's right. You can get lumps.
14:56 You put cornstarch into a hot liquid,
14:57 you're gonna immediately have lumps
14:59 and you will have a really hard time getting them out.
15:02 That was totally right.
15:04 Lumps are not good.
15:05 And it gives that such a good flavor.
15:07 Yeah, now I just added the tofutti
15:09 better than sour cream
15:10 and it's just a vegan substitute for sour cream
15:14 and it does give it a nice wonderful flavor
15:17 and you look at that,
15:18 how beautiful that looks in there, already.
15:20 And you can see that it's a little bit thin.
15:22 Linda, can you go ahead now?
15:23 Now, I want you to take a look at these mushrooms over first.
15:26 Can we just take a look at these to see how golden
15:29 and nice these just turned out to be?
15:31 Look how nice and golden.
15:33 So now, sis, you're gonna just put all those in there,
15:35 just tip them in here, and that's it,
15:38 nice, that's good.
15:39 And then we can just put that over there.
15:43 And now I've got the mushrooms in there--
15:46 Looks so good.
15:48 Are you ready for the slurry?
15:49 Ready, now watch.
15:50 You can turn the heat up on this for me, sis. And--
15:53 Make sure you scrape the sides with your fork or your whip,
15:57 because-- You want to make sure that powder is--
15:59 Right.
16:01 Okay, all right.
16:03 Now, as I'm stirring I just add that slurry
16:06 and you can see it thicken up almost immediately,
16:09 and sometimes I do like this to just get
16:11 the little-- less bit of that out.
16:14 And it just thickens up right away,
16:18 and I don't even have to put the lid on
16:20 and do anything after that,
16:21 it will just thicken up and be ready to serving it.
16:24 And it's ready to eat, at this point it is ready to eat--
16:27 Really? Your potatoes are done.
16:28 Really?
16:29 And your-- oh-- okay,
16:34 well, there you go.
16:40 Here we go.
16:42 I mean, I hear the sentence ready to eat,
16:45 I need to try it.
16:47 That's your-- well, it hasn't as thick as it needs to be,
16:49 yeah, because as you can see it,
16:51 I was trying to set at high as it will go.
16:53 It is as high as it goes.
16:55 All right, well, it will start bubbling.
16:57 As soon as it starts to bubble a little bit, it will thicken.
17:01 That is a delicious flavor.
17:03 Very-- oh.
17:05 Well, I want you to see what it does look like
17:06 all thickened up and there it is right there,
17:08 and I just put a little sprig of parsley over the top of it
17:13 and little parsley flakes and garnish,
17:16 that's all you needed.
17:17 That is delicious, sis.
17:19 And our next recipe, is yours recipe, sis.
17:24 Creamy broccoli soup.
17:26 Let me read the recipe.
18:04 Well, to save time I've already--
18:09 I'm gonna tell you what I've done ahead of time.
18:11 You're gonna take and put one tablespoon of--
18:15 and you can use canola oil or extra virgin olive oil,
18:19 and saute your onion and your celery.
18:21 And then, put your water in, and then put the potatoes in.
18:26 Let the potatoes get cook about halfway,
18:29 and then add your broccoli.
18:31 And if you can see inside this pot,
18:33 I've a lot of broccoli in here.
18:35 Do you want to turn down, sis?
18:37 And we turn like that, I have a lot of broccoli.
18:39 Can you turn the heat up a little bit?
18:42 And that's because I have a lot of broccoli left over.
18:46 But honestly, I love it with that,
18:51 its just--once you see how I blend it up,
18:55 you need all that broccoli, okay.
18:58 So you want your vegetables to be tender,
19:01 and that's what they are.
19:03 So at this point, I'm gonna add some margarine
19:08 and you can leave this out if you want
19:11 but it adds flavor.
19:13 And I wanted just that little bit of flavor.
19:17 And then I'm going to add
19:19 the McKay's chicken style seasoning and broth,
19:23 and this is a vegan and seasoning
19:27 and it's also no MSG.
19:30 So it is one of my favorite seasoning.
19:33 It's my favorite too.
19:34 I know, it's we all three of us and we get that from mom.
19:36 And it was mom's favorite too
19:38 I know we get that from mom.
19:40 We got from-- we grew up with it.
19:41 So that's why, you know,
19:42 we are just all comfort with it.
19:44 It's our go to.
19:45 Yes, it is.
19:47 And now I'm gonna add my nutritional yeast flakes.
19:52 I love those too.
19:54 It gives it a really nice flavor.
19:59 And make sure that's stirred up good.
20:03 When you add your water in your cooking your vegetables,
20:06 make sure you add your salt at that time
20:09 and I put one to two teaspoons or to taste.
20:13 And I actually do taste the water after I add the salt,
20:17 because you don't want too much salt,
20:19 but you want salt.
20:20 And you're right.
20:22 It makes a difference--
20:23 When you cook with the salt versus adding it later.
20:24 It's just not incorporated into the vegetables.
20:27 Right.
20:28 I can tell a pasta, or a vegetable,or a potato
20:33 that has been cooked, boiled without salt,
20:37 I can't eat it.
20:38 It just tastes...
20:39 But if you're on a no-salt diet, or a low salt diet--
20:42 You make those changes in your body.
20:44 Probably, they're accustomed
20:45 your pallet is already accustomed to it,
20:46 you're probably gonna be just fine.
20:48 Right.
20:49 So and then, can I have that whisk, please?
20:52 I'm going to-- this is my cornstarch,
20:56 and like we've said previously,
20:58 you always add it to a cold
21:03 and so I'm gonna add that,
21:04 and also if you like a thinner soup,
21:08 you cannot put it quite as much cornstarch.
21:13 I like it thick and my husband likes it thick,
21:16 so I've put in the extra.
21:22 If there's-- its some sort of soup,
21:23 there's some soups I really preferred to be a thin soup,
21:26 there's other soups that just taste good
21:28 if they're a little bit thicker, hardy.
21:30 And in some you want a brothy,
21:32 more brothy and not a creamy soup.
21:35 I like a nice thick creamy soup.
21:37 Yeah.
21:39 And it gets thick, pretty fast.
21:42 So, I'm gonna take and pour it in, now,
21:47 and this is our almond milk,
21:50 make sure you get all that in. I like--
21:52 You can-- there's people that--
21:54 if you don't have almond milk and you have soymilk,
21:57 you could probably use a substitute,
21:58 it's just a flavor.
22:00 Use your favorite,
22:01 'cause everybody has favorites. I mean--
22:03 I hardly-- I don't even buy soymilk anymore,
22:06 my family just loves the almond milk
22:08 and so that's why, what we drink in our home,
22:10 so it's usually what I cook with.
22:12 But I will tell you-- is that up high?
22:15 I will tell you, I don't-- Use like the coconut milk,
22:20 I save that for different recipes,
22:22 but this is a real savory recipe
22:24 and I didn't like the flavor,
22:26 and so I did a-- that's why I did
22:28 the almond or the soy,
22:30 'cause you don't want the flavor of your milk
22:32 to overpower your soup.
22:34 Make sure when you're getting your milk
22:35 that you don't get the vanilla flavored almond milk-
22:37 Yes, yes.
22:38 You know, that's kind of a problem.
22:40 Yes, I said original flavor.
22:42 And I use sometimes the vanilla flavored ones,
22:45 like when I make cookies or cakes or something like that.
22:49 Right, and for the sweeter ones
22:51 you don't need the unsweetened.
22:52 So right. Right.
22:55 And this just-- as it heat, it's going to get
23:00 a little bit thicker and then what I do,
23:06 is I take an immersion blender.
23:08 Now, if you do not have an immersion blender,
23:12 there's a couple ways you could do this.
23:14 You could get a masher, and mash it up,
23:18 because your vegetables are tender,
23:20 and so they-- what I'm trying to do is,
23:22 break it up and incorporate it into some of the liquid,
23:26 because it just gives you a really rich flavor.
23:30 Or you could take, like two cups of it,
23:34 or may be, depending on what your blender will hold
23:38 and you want to be careful, because it's a hot mixture.
23:42 So you would want to take it one to two cups at a time,
23:45 put it in your blender, blend it up,
23:47 and then put it back in here.
23:49 But I don't do all of it,
23:51 because I want a little bit of chunky,
23:53 but I want a lot of it, smooth and creamy.
23:58 Yeah, that's where we get our creamy.
23:59 And it is delicious.
24:01 Let me have that spoon one more time,
24:02 I want to see it that's--
24:04 because when this starts, you want to make sure--
24:07 It'll thicken, even if it's blended.
24:08 Oh, it'll thicken even if it's blended up, exactly.
24:12 So I'm gonna take my immersion blender--
24:14 I love my immersion blender, and you just turn it on,
24:19 if I could... and blend and start blending.
24:23 And you're gonna, I don't know how much
24:25 you can see of this, but you're gonna see that--
24:28 yeah, sis, go ahead, tip that a little bit,
24:30 so they can see it.
24:32 And see how it's blending up.
24:34 Yeah.
24:35 Okay, go ahead, back down.
24:37 All right.
24:38 I need to get those big broccoli florets
24:43 and mix them up
24:48 and you can hear that every time
24:49 you hit a piece of broccoli.
24:51 Well, when you bring it back up to the surface,
24:54 but you see how it's getting different colors,
24:57 and I'm gonna have a little bit of chunks in it
24:59 but not a lot and I'll show you how
25:03 it gets up to be a rich green color.
25:07 And the potatoes, in there, give it fullness too.
25:13 They get to help to thicken as well.
25:15 And now you'll just want to cook a little bit,
25:18 and I'm gonna tip it a little bit,
25:20 so you can see it.
25:21 Can you see inside?
25:23 See how nice and rich that got,
25:24 and that's really pretty green color.
25:26 And so now you would want,
25:28 at this time baby sit this.
25:31 Yes-- Seriously.
25:32 You don't want to burn the bottom of your pan.
25:34 You want to stir it, until it gets thick,
25:37 because it gets thick--
25:38 It'll ruin your day, let me tell you.
25:40 Right, all of a sudden, it gets thick--
25:41 Then there done that.
25:43 And it will scourge and you cannot get
25:45 that flavor out. So--
25:46 Of course, if you do it once you won't forget. So you know--
25:49 Yeah, yeah, then I prepared some ahead of time,
25:52 and I'll show you what it looks like.
25:54 And she just garnished with just a little red pepper
25:57 and some rosemary sprigs and a little bit of paprikas,
26:01 our grandmother Micheff would say.
26:03 Yes.
26:04 Well, we finished our three soups
26:06 and we're gonna show you some three crackers.
26:09 And I think it's the savory saltines.
26:13 All right, why don't you read the recipe for them, sis?
26:35 I love going over to moms, because a lot of time,
26:38 she'll have, homemade crackers.
26:40 And I really like mom's crackers better than anybody.
26:43 They're my favorite. I do too, mom.
26:44 But I love my sister's crackers too
26:46 and the ones that I'm making now,
26:48 my family likes them really well,
26:50 but mom just has a knack, for making crackers.
26:53 She inspired all our recipes.
26:55 We had mom on the program, with us,
26:57 once before, for Mother's Day program.
26:59 We need to do that again sometime.
27:00 Wouldn't you like to have mom on the program, with us?
27:03 Well, for this I'm gonna put
27:04 all my dry ingredients together,
27:06 my unbleached flour,
27:08 my half a cup of whole wheat flour.
27:10 I'm going to put my baking soda and it is aluminum free,
27:16 so we kind of use in home, and this is my sea salt here,
27:21 yep and I have McKay's style chicken seasoning.
27:26 And so I'm gonna mix this all together.
27:30 All stirred up.
27:35 Okay, we're kind of make a well in the middle,
27:37 and I'm gonna put my--
27:39 that's just for the variant and the season salt,
27:43 this is optional.
27:45 And I'm gonna put my water in here
27:48 and depending on the types of flour,
27:50 you may need a little bit cold water,
27:53 but I have some over here, just in case I might need it.
27:57 Well, different flours are different.
27:59 Yeah, some take more.
28:01 And the flour correction is different as well.
28:02 Also, depending on, like, you have to always check the store,
28:07 the bag, before you buy it.
28:09 Because there's an expiration date
28:10 and if your flour is out of date,
28:13 it is not gonna be good.
28:15 And you can smell flour. Smell if it is fresh or not.
28:18 If you smell, it smells a little bit rancid,
28:21 you know immediately that you got that you know,
28:25 bad flour, old flour.
28:28 Okay, with these crackers here,
28:31 we're gonna just put it in here
28:33 and you don't really need to spray the pan,
28:36 sometimes I spray my hands.
28:39 But I think I'll use some gloves, this time.
28:41 Is that, so you can go, like this, like lick your hand?
28:44 No, no.
28:47 I don't think so. Okay, we're gonna--
28:50 I'm gonna put on my gloves,
28:51 'cause this will go a lot faster
28:52 and they won't stick to my hands that way.
28:55 Even if I have washed my hands, it just works better.
28:58 Okay, now I'm gonna push it in.
29:00 I'll put it like here and you just work it to the sides
29:03 and you make it as thin as you want.
29:09 Okay.
29:12 And that's also personal thing to,
29:13 if you want thin crackers or thicker crackers.
29:16 Some of my crackers I like them thicker
29:19 and then there are some types of crackers I like thinner.
29:24 I'm pretty much a thin cracker girl, I love crackers.
29:27 Well, there's something--
29:28 There's some I like thick.
29:31 It's almost like a wafer or a biscuit.
29:33 I do like my biscuits.
29:39 Well, this is something as we say all the time,
29:42 this is a family thing.
29:43 You can get it to this point,
29:45 and if you're making too batches of crackers,
29:47 you can hand this off to your kids
29:48 and they can just pad it in place.
29:51 You know, I remember, as kids, we've done that.
29:54 Yes, that's what mom would do.
29:56 Because she'd have to make quite a bit,
29:57 so she was double batching a lot of stuff.
30:00 And she had our brothers in, too.
30:02 All five of us, were in the kitchen,
30:03 cooking with her,
30:05 and she gave each one of us jobs.
30:07 Do you know, one of the things that,
30:09 as I have-- every year I get older,
30:11 I think, I love mom more and appreciate her more.
30:15 And I don't think I ever truly appreciated her,
30:18 until I had children of my own.
30:20 I never realized how much work she did.
30:21 That's what I'm saying.
30:23 She made it looked easy.
30:25 So I didn't think anything till about it.
30:26 But I think about mom, how she was so patient.
30:30 I think about how, you know, she was,
30:32 you know, to have five kids
30:34 and keep us in the kitchen working with her.
30:36 That requires a lot of patience.
30:37 It'd been so much easier for her to shoo us outside,
30:39 and let her just do it.
30:41 And, but we wouldn't have learned anything.
30:43 But you know, sis, this morning,
30:44 just in fact, just this morning,
30:46 when we were getting ready to come over here--
30:49 We were talking about mom and both of us said,
30:52 all three of us said,
30:54 "We can't remember, mom, ever, ever"--
30:58 Not ever. "Thinking of just herself."
31:00 No, she didn't.
31:01 Like doing something for herself.
31:04 She had her every thought, every single day, was,
31:07 "What can I do first for, you kids?
31:10 What can I do for your dad?
31:11 What can I do for the neighbors?
31:13 What can I do for the church?"
31:14 I mean she was always thinking about
31:17 "What can I do for others?"
31:18 And I've never seen mom make a selfish decision.
31:20 Ever.
31:21 Even that, you know, even think of herself,
31:23 for a small thing.
31:24 I mean, she just, she doesn't.
31:26 I thought she was--
31:27 I didn't realize that she never got new things,
31:29 I mean, if we needed something,
31:31 we were the ones that got it,
31:34 but mom would without, smiling,
31:36 wearing the old same thing, every Sabbath,
31:38 I just thought, she liked the dress.
31:39 I didn't know.
31:41 Didn't know, and she just is, she really--
31:44 She never said, "Ah, kid, I need some me-time.
31:48 I need to get away from my,
31:49 you know, you guys, go in there and play
31:52 or I'm having someone coming."
31:54 I mean, she never did that.
31:55 Do you know, I've never had--
31:56 Hold your thought, just a minute.
31:58 I'm gonna cut it into, a 10 this way,
32:00 and like, I divided in half and I'll put--
32:03 cut five cuts on each side,
32:05 and then I'm gonna go this way, and I'll do six.
32:07 So you get like 60 crackers, so about this big.
32:11 Okay. Now, keep going.
32:12 I was just gonna say that I've never had an earthly hero.
32:17 I was never one of those teenagers
32:19 that had a poster about my bed or some kind of thing.
32:22 But if I was to have an earthly hero,
32:24 it would be mom.
32:25 Absolutely.
32:27 She's been such a, just a tremendous.
32:30 Hands down. Yes.
32:32 Hands down, all three of us.
32:33 And when I was speaking in--
32:37 At Philip island in Australia, mom went with me,
32:41 and it was first trip that mom and I had gone anywhere
32:43 and done anything together.
32:45 And I was so blown away, with the reception mom got
32:49 from the ladies there.
32:50 I mean, they were so excited to see her.
32:52 And one lady came up to her,
32:54 and I thought she was coming up to me,
32:56 we're both sitting on the front row,
32:57 and the lady was making a b-row,
32:59 beeline for us, and she came,
33:02 and I thought she was coming to see me,
33:03 and she got down on her knees in front of mom,
33:06 and tears were just rolling down her cheeks,
33:08 and she was giving mom a gift, and she just took mom's face,
33:11 and she just kissed both cheeks and she just said,
33:14 "I thought I would have to wait to heaven to get to meet you."
33:17 She said, "I wanted to meet you."
33:19 So mom started crying. And it was so precious.
33:23 Now, you poke it, just poke it with a fork,
33:25 I do like about three or four pokes, per cracker.
33:31 And this is the fun part.
33:33 And there's one over there, you can do it.
33:35 Ah, there's the fun thing, just poke along.
33:37 And I have-- we have some already made,
33:39 so you can see what they're like.
33:40 But on this one-- How would it be baked?
33:43 I bake it at 350, for about 15, 20 minutes approximately,
33:48 or until it looks like that kind of a golden color.
33:51 And on top, sometimes, I might sprinkle season salt,
33:54 sometimes I want an onion flavor,
33:56 so I'll sprinkle onion, powder on it--
33:58 Before it's baked.
33:59 Before it's baked, sometimes I'll sprinkle
34:01 before it's baked, I'll put garlic powder.
34:03 So you can put any seasoning you want it.
34:05 Your favorite seasoning on top, whatever you want.
34:08 That's it. Now, that's great.
34:09 That's just it. Well, you know what?
34:11 Brenda has a cracker, and sis, why don't you read
34:15 the recipe for your crackers?
34:16 Exactly, "Whole grain crackers,"
34:18 for this you'll need...
34:41 I'm the one that likes really crispy, thin crackers.
34:45 And so-- I like them too.
34:46 Any cracker I'm gonna make, is going to be thin.
34:48 I mean, I like them too.
34:49 It's just I like some thicker ones, too.
34:51 I just don't like the thicker ones,
34:52 that's my problem.
34:55 So this is gonna be a nice thin.
34:56 I got a little trick up my sleeve here,
34:58 to, you know, yeah, she sure got to check my sleeve out.
35:02 She does.
35:04 So first, we're going to take our water
35:07 and our oil, and Linda if you'd mix that in there
35:09 and you're going to whisk that together
35:10 and just to emulsify those two together.
35:13 Sis, you're going to just put all these ingredients in bowl
35:17 and this is our wheat germ, look how much wheat germ.
35:18 That's our white whole wheat flour
35:20 and the white whole wheat flour is,
35:22 every bit of nutritious as a regular whole wheat,
35:25 it's just a lighter flavor,
35:27 and also lighter texture for baking.
35:29 And then, put our flaxseed in, our ground flaxseed,
35:32 our sesame seeds, and also our sugar,
35:36 and then I'm going to-- can you mix that up in there,
35:40 because as soon as she adds up,
35:42 I'm gonna put my trusty kitchen gloves on here.
35:45 Is that good enough?
35:47 You got to whip it together really good,
35:48 and I want to emulsify that really well.
35:51 Makes a nice sound, too.
35:54 Okay, I'm gonna just get my gloves in here just inside.
35:57 Okay, now, Linda, I'm gonna have you,
36:01 just I'm gonna make a well in the middle.
36:04 She's having too much fun, tell her to stop.
36:07 Okay, lets make a well real quick here.
36:14 Okay, and let me just start with this
36:17 and I'm going to...
36:20 just till you want to mix until all the moisture is...
36:26 corporated into the dry ingredients.
36:29 And so, sometimes I just get it started with this
36:33 and I'll get my gloves in here and do it by hand.
36:38 There you go, and I'm just going
36:41 to just mix that up really good.
36:45 And this takes no time.
36:46 You can see how fast
36:48 it is to make these cracker recipes.
36:51 You can make your recipes at home faster
36:54 than you went to the store
36:55 and pick and bought it off the shelf,
36:56 and it'll taste a whole lot better to you
36:59 and better for you.
37:00 And it's a lot cheaper.
37:02 And a lot healthier, because you know,
37:03 what's going in those,
37:05 and you're getting all the, you know--
37:07 The ingredients with that big long words
37:10 that you can't understand.
37:11 That's right, now, you see,
37:13 how I'm gonna take half of these
37:17 and this is, may be a little more than half in this one,
37:19 because this is a little bigger pan
37:20 than your normal size pan.
37:22 And this is my little trick up the sleeve,
37:24 I was telling you about.
37:26 If you use a regular rolling pin on this to roll it,
37:29 because of the size of this, it will not--
37:32 well you can show it.
37:33 See, it won't go far enough.
37:35 I actually have a little rolling pin at home.
37:37 I know you do, I love your rolling pin.
37:39 But if you don't have one of those rolling pins,
37:41 like Cinda, guess what, I've got a can of corn.
37:46 Who doesn't have a can of corn?
37:47 But she hasn't opened the can.
37:48 Did you see that can come right out of my sleeve?
37:50 Did you see that? I did.
37:52 So all you gonna have to do, and if you don't like corn,
37:55 try a can of peas, or green beans, or whatever.
37:57 Just make sure you wash the can first.
37:58 Exactly, see so--
38:00 I actually use can of jalapeno peppers for mine.
38:05 And so all I'm gonna do, is gonna just keep...
38:10 Doing like this just-- You're getting them thin.
38:13 Yeah, I've to have mine thin.
38:15 I got to tell you that, I don't need a thick cracker,
38:19 I just don't like them, but I love crackers.
38:21 So let's see here. Here we go.
38:28 Just look how nice and smooth, that is.
38:33 And this is probably like-- this is an oversized pan.
38:37 So you're really looking at...
38:41 at probably I think I can put
38:42 a little more dough in here, Cinda, on this side,
38:44 because this is a little bit bigger pan
38:48 than a normal size.
38:51 It's just more like
38:52 a commercial grade booking, baking pan here.
38:56 And let's see, this is coming together?
39:01 Not bad, is it? Looks good.
39:04 They were yummy crackers too, I snitched them.
39:09 Now, the truth is told.
39:12 Now I can tell you, I got a little too much, may be now.
39:16 I got ahead of myself, sis--
39:18 Because you really don't like thick crackers.
39:21 No, I don't.
39:24 They got to be thinner;
39:25 I just don't like eating them. So here you go.
39:29 I guess I just like eating.
39:31 Yeah.
39:33 Look how, this soup can did that for me, see.
39:38 And I'll just touch up.
39:39 Well, you know, we can just put that soup can--
39:41 Or a corn can. We can leave that--
39:43 Oh, yeah, that's a corn can, I'm sorry.
39:45 Thanks for keeping me honest there.
39:46 You can just leave that corn can right there,
39:47 because I'm gonna use it next.
39:49 But isn't that also--
39:51 And who doesn't have a can of corn lying around you know?
39:54 Look how nice and smooth that is.
39:56 Isn't that nice and smooth?
39:58 All right, so now, I'm just gonna do
40:00 the same thing Linda did.
40:02 And you can cut these in any size you want.
40:06 I'm probably gonna make a little bit bigger cracker.
40:09 Let's see here, and just it, there's no rhyme or reason,
40:13 if you like big crackers, little crackers,
40:15 if you even like bigger than that.
40:16 Let me guess.
40:18 You like, not only like thin crack--
40:21 crispy crackers, you like big thin crispy crackers.
40:28 Well, that could be the case.
40:31 Now, see, now I need some regular table salt,
40:34 some sea salt.
40:35 All right, I'm on it. And here we go.
40:41 And this is how your salt has to be on--
40:43 You pricked it at all? I do.
40:45 But I'll go ahead and just sprinkle at this point,
40:47 and I'll just sprinkle my salt, like this,
40:49 and I like sea salt, I was not on board
40:52 with all the gourmet, sea salts
40:54 and Himalaya salts and everything, until...
40:59 my daughter Linda Kay was-- you know,
41:02 had these beautiful pink, you know, Himalayan sea salt
41:05 and stuff and she goes, "Mom, taste the difference."
41:07 Oh, well, I thought,
41:08 oh, they're all salty, you know, it's good,
41:10 but you know what, I tasted a soup course
41:12 one time, and it tasted almost metallic to me.
41:14 And I think, "That's really nuts, that's crazy,
41:16 how come I've a metallic taste in soup?"
41:19 And then I remembered what my daughter said,
41:20 you know, she goes,
41:22 "Mom, sometimes you get that metal taste."
41:23 I'm like, "I don't know, there's metal taste for salt."
41:26 Oh, boy, did I hear it, see it, taste the metal--
41:28 I knew, what she was talking about.
41:30 I'm a believer, I took all the old salt out of my house,
41:32 I only use sea salt now.
41:34 So I sprinkled in-- I use sea salt.
41:36 If you do not have to use it at this point,
41:38 but if you're gonna put salt on it,
41:40 do it before you bake it.
41:41 You're going to bake it at 325 degree oven,
41:46 for about 20, 25 minutes,
41:49 sometimes longer, depending on your oven.
41:51 My oven, at home took 30 minutes.
41:53 So you want it to be, cracker, crispy.
41:57 So if you-- I'll take an edge and I'll bend a little bit,
41:59 if it bends too much, I know,
42:01 I have to bake it a tiny bit more.
42:02 And I do put the pricks in as well, just like Linda did.
42:07 So we already shared, we showed you how to do that.
42:09 So it's the same way.
42:11 Won't bore you with that, but, right now,
42:13 I already have some, already crispy,
42:15 ready, sis, you want to go, try one of those for them?
42:18 Do I even need to be asked?
42:21 Well, Cinda, is our official taster,
42:23 so, you know, I got to have her taste,
42:25 I got to tell those story on you first, sis.
42:28 I was speaking at a church recently,
42:31 down in Sanford, Florida, at the Spring Meadow Church,
42:34 and the lady come up to me and she goes,
42:35 "You know, I watched your cooking show, this last week,"
42:37 and she said,
42:39 "I'm not trying that dish you made."
42:40 I said, "Why?" she said,
42:41 "Cinda didn't try it, if she didn't try it,
42:43 it can't be that good."
42:45 And I think, "Oh, dear."
42:48 So please, try my crackers.
42:51 Well, I'm gonna see, if they're crisp when they break.
42:54 Listen.
42:58 You heard that. Yeah, yeah.
43:01 I hear it too in the crunch.
43:04 Well, it gets, eight plus on crispy,
43:08 eight plus on crunch, eight plus on thinness,
43:13 well, it might get a C-minus on size.
43:19 I need a lot bigger next time.
43:21 Well, our cracker, that I know,
43:23 you're gonna give an A-plus too,
43:25 is, Cinda's, next recipe, Wheat thin crackers.
43:29 You want me to read that recipe, sis?
43:30 She's got her mouth full right now, just a moment.
43:33 For this you'll need...
43:57 And that's it.
43:59 I'm calling these wheat thins for Brenda,
44:02 because she loves wheat thins.
44:06 And I'm actually gonna roll them out
44:08 a little thinner than I usually do.
44:11 But you can either roll them out thick or thin.
44:15 Crackers, as you can tell, are really simple.
44:18 So I really encourage you to get your kids involved.
44:23 In fact, I and Brenda, at Brenda's--
44:27 this is Brenda's creation,
44:30 I've just finished taping a week,
44:33 then I got a couple more weeks to tape,
44:35 but taping a brand new cooking show,
44:38 for Tiny Tots, in the kitchen.
44:40 Well, can I just interrupt you a second?
44:42 'Cause it's not my creation.
44:43 I really believe, it was Holy Spirit inspired.
44:45 I was praying and praying,
44:47 and I know that we needed more programs for Tiny Tots,
44:50 not just programs for, you know, the older kids.
44:54 You know, to have one program for Tiny Tots,
44:56 that's not enough.
44:57 And so I believe, God really impressed me
44:59 to ask you to do that, and I think he impressed,
45:01 Cinda, to say, yes.
45:03 It's a 15 minute worship program that she taped,
45:05 and a 15 minute cooking program,
45:08 so there's two new Tiny Tot programs
45:10 coming out in the next few months,
45:12 and I'm really excited about it.
45:13 And she did an incredible job. Yes, she did.
45:16 Just an incredible job on it. And so did the crew and--
45:18 God was with us all.
45:20 Directing the set, we did an amazing job so.
45:21 But where I was going with all of this?
45:24 You wanted to know this, right?
45:26 Is, this week is a little bit different cooking,
45:29 because I actually did crackers,
45:31 with the tiny tots, but I had a two year old here,
45:36 and a six year old here, and I had a three year old here,
45:41 and a six year old there.
45:44 So if Linda and I suck our thumbs,
45:45 will you feel better?
45:46 No, Tiny Tots are not like that,
45:48 they have to wash their hands first
45:49 and they're not allowed to have their hands in their mouth--
45:50 Good plan. And, but it--
45:53 Miss Cinda, do you want to do the whip?
45:55 That's, that's it, and if I ask you to help--
45:58 I got to go party. Oh, now, that happened a lot.
46:02 And I would say, we had a little two year old,
46:05 she was just as precious as she could be,
46:08 and I would say, "Cadence, would you like to help?"
46:11 Because she was measuring like this, I'd say,
46:14 "Okay, you want to put the wheat germ in?
46:16 Okay, now, we got to get our measuring cup."
46:18 And I'd have her measuring cup, and I'd say,
46:20 "Okay, put your measuring cup."
46:22 And my director is, Rodney Laney,
46:24 and so I have an ear piece in my ear,
46:27 where he can talk to me,
46:28 because there's so much going on,
46:30 it helps me to know, what all the kids are doing.
46:33 So I'm over here, helping in, and he goes,
46:35 "Cinda, you might want to help, Cadence."
46:38 And I look over, and she's going,
46:41 "One cup, two cups."
46:51 And then I would turn to help her, and it'd go,
46:55 "The little two year old on your right,"
46:57 yeah, "She's pouring that"-- and I'd be like,
47:01 "Oh, oh, honey, we need to not take our whip,
47:04 and put it in our hair, because that's where they go."
47:08 So is that little saner...
47:11 So this is really different.
47:15 But they love it.
47:17 I can't wait for you, to see the program.
47:18 It is really-- they're awesome.
47:19 They loved making crackers.
47:21 And I like to sneak in healthy ingredients.
47:27 So we have whole wheat flour, we have wheat germ,
47:30 we snuck in flaxseed, and--
47:33 This is the toasted wheat germ, and they liked them.
47:37 And I put in-- oh, here's the flaxseed,
47:40 I put in the flaxseed, and I put in,
47:42 just a little bit of brown sugar
47:45 for sweetness for them, and they--
47:49 this is how, I mean,
47:50 I would tell them to use their hands,
47:53 because I had them wash their hands, they love it.
47:56 The little-- they would giggle,
47:58 even the six year olds would giggle.
47:59 I don't think, you could probably find any gloves
48:01 that would fit those little fingers.
48:02 No, no, they had so much fun and this is so--
48:08 I really encourage you,
48:09 to get your kids involved in helping you,
48:13 your grandkids.
48:14 You know what?
48:15 If you look in your church,
48:17 there might be a single mother,
48:18 there might be a busy mom, I mean,
48:21 they're too busy parents,
48:23 who work all the time and don't have the time
48:25 with their children, that you could say,
48:27 "Hey, you know, would you like to bring your kids over,
48:30 and I'll take them for couple of hours?"
48:31 That's right.
48:33 What're we gonna do, with this over here?
48:34 You know what? What a ministry.
48:36 Will salt go in here? Okay, salt would go in here.
48:38 Okay.
48:40 I'm gonna make sure we get all that out.
48:41 This is our agave nectar. No.
48:43 That's a little bit of oil. Okay.
48:46 And also I wanted to tell you, I wanted the flavor of this,
48:50 so I'm gonna add the oil in the center,
48:52 I'm gonna add all my wet ingredients into the center.
48:55 If you don't want to use the margarine,
48:57 you can use olive oil, if you want.
48:58 You let the water in here?
49:00 And you can use-- yes, you can use oil,
49:03 you can use any kind of the oil you want,
49:05 and if you want to sneak in healthier oils,
49:08 you could even use a walnut oil.
49:11 With your moment over here, I'd try to help you out.
49:14 And you want to--
49:16 again, mix to incorporate, all of this--
49:21 you want to get all your dry ingredients, incorporated in,
49:25 to the liquid, until it makes a ball,
49:28 and at this point, I'm gonna get my gloves on.
49:31 These things are wonderful kitchen helpers,
49:33 I'll tell you that.
49:34 Yes, all last week, I didn't wear gloves,
49:36 because I didn't have any little enough,
49:38 for the tiny tots enough.
49:40 If I'd have put the gloves on, they would've wanted it.
49:44 And so, we didn't do it that way, in the tiny tot kitchen.
49:50 Linda, hosts Tiny Tots, and so, Linda,
49:54 have we spent 13 years,
49:57 together taping Tiny Tots and we've been in the--
50:00 I'm always having Linda in the kitchen too with us,
50:03 on the regular Tiny Tot program.
50:05 So she knows what it's like to have the tiny tots.
50:09 It's fun.
50:10 So what I'm gonna do, this is getting
50:12 all incorporated into it,
50:15 and also, if you don't have to watch the Tiny Tots,
50:20 if they want to taste the dough,
50:22 because you don't have any harmful ingredients
50:24 that they can't just taste.
50:26 You know, what's interesting to me, too, just like bread,
50:28 there's so many different kinds of bread recipes,
50:31 and with basic same ingredients
50:34 and yet all the bread turns out differently--
50:36 I'll take that corn, please.
50:38 Oh, there you go, one corn can coming up.
50:41 And just like the bread recipes that vary from
50:44 whatever country you go to, they're same basic ingredients,
50:48 all different kinds of tastes and textures of bread.
50:50 Same with crackers, you know,
50:52 there's lot of similarities in the ingredients,
50:54 but they're all different.
50:55 They are. They taste different.
50:57 They taste different, the texture is different,
50:59 but like I said, you can make, these crackers,
51:04 you can change, make them to your taste,
51:07 you can add olive oil, if you add olive oil,
51:10 it'll be a little bit different.
51:12 You know, and so you can do that too.
51:15 Sometimes I make a sweet cracker,
51:17 so I don't put as much, like oil in, I will substitute,
51:22 pure maple syrup, and put some of that in.
51:25 I like that, too.
51:27 Well, you know, we have, my sisters and I have
51:30 six cookbooks out, and--
51:33 Before you tell them that, can you tell them,
51:35 how to bake this?
51:36 Oh, I guess, I should tell you that.
51:39 The cookbook will tell you. No.
51:44 You're gonna roll this out--
51:45 I am gonna roll this out thin.
51:47 I'm gonna square it just like they did.
51:49 I don't sprinkle, on the top with salt, but you can,
51:53 and I bake them at 325 for 15 to 20 minutes.
51:58 They're gonna look like this.
51:59 But baby-sit your crackers, too, because,
52:01 if you would not roll them out, evenly,
52:04 part of the pan will bake faster.
52:06 Thinnest part will bake faster.
52:07 The ends, I usually take out first.
52:09 And so you don't-- you want to make sure,
52:12 you're there in the kitchen to watch them, okay?
52:15 And baking it how long? For 15 to 20 minutes.
52:19 Bakes at-- 325.
52:21 There you go.
52:22 So now, back to the cookbooks, we're going to show you,
52:24 how you can get your cookbook.
52:29 If you've enjoyed the recipes, you've seen today
