- Y'all. This is my good friend, my good buddy, Donna Foltz.
0:04
Donna and I are gonna go on a picnic today,
0:06
Next, it's a spinach and strawberry salad
0:09
made with the freshest ingredients in Georgia.
0:12
- [Donna] I know you're a taster.
0:13
- You can use my mouth to taste with any time.
0:17
I want you to start peeling that cucumber.
0:23
- I'm going to measure out
0:25
about a third of a cup of slivered almonds
0:28
that we're going to roast in a pan.
0:31
- [Donna] And how much cucumber would you like?
0:32
- I would like for you to seed and peel-
0:36
- That whole cucumber please.
0:40
So, you've got your spinach leaves over there.
0:43
I've got about a quart of strawberries.
0:45
- [Donna] Now, I didn't ask you.
0:46
I'm assuming you want me dice this?
0:48
- Dice, yeah dice it up, you know, fairly small.
0:53
- And we're not going to dress our salad
0:55
before we leave on our picnic because you know,
0:58
it would make our spinach go limp, and we don't want that.
1:03
And you can cut these strawberries down any way you want to.
1:06
You can slice 'em, quarter 'em, half 'em.
1:08
- [Donna] They're so fresh.
1:09
- Aren't they? These are beautiful strawberries.
1:17
All right, so I'm going to
1:18
just toss our strawberries in there y'all.
1:22
And you can just throw those cucumbers on in here.
1:25
- [Donna] I know you're a taster. I'm a taster.
1:29
- And not only am I a taster, everybody in my kitchen,
1:31
when they come to the front door, they come for dinner.
1:33
I'm like, okay so here.
1:37
- Here, let me get that closer.
1:40
You can use my mouth to taste with any time.
1:44
All right, now we're going to make a wonderful,
1:47
sweet little dressing for our salad.
1:50
So we've got just a little screw top jar.
1:53
We're going to use a third of a cup of sugar,
1:58
the juice of a half a lemon,
2:01
about a teaspoon of poppy seeds,
2:05
two tablespoons of white wine vinegar,
2:14
and then we're just gonna shake, shake, shake.
2:19
- [Donna] That's perfect.
2:20
- Yes, and just that quick.
2:21
Now Donna, when I go to shake these things,
2:24
I put a rag on it just in case.
2:27
- 'Cause I've had 'em leaking, they'll all go all over me.
2:30
- Sometimes they don't seal.
2:31
- That's right, okay.
2:32
- [Paula] So, I'm just going to shake this up.
2:35
So we just want to dissolve that.
2:37
- Our almonds are toasted now, so we'll just toss those in,
2:42
and we'll just taste the salad a little later.
2:47
- [Paula] Let's taste our salad.
2:49
- That looks so good.
2:50
- All right, let me know how you like it.
2:56
And the vinegar made it a little tart.
3:03
