hey y'all welcome to what's cooking with
0:02
Paula Deen today I am back here with
0:05
Naomi Whittle and she is helping me to
0:10
understand to look for those good fats
0:15
get rid of those bad fats so I was on
0:20
the right track what and I know me I got
0:22
rid of everything white for me to lose
0:25
that initial but now I need to learn how
0:29
to really take advantage of all the good
0:33
fats now does that kind of fit in
0:36
absolutely Paula I was so excited when
0:39
we started looking through your cookbook
0:43
and connecting it with my book Glo 15
0:48
and how we put the two together because
0:50
everything that you have in here like
0:52
just these most delicious delicious
0:55
recipes right so let's even take any one
0:58
of these the choices let's take the
1:00
butter bacon burger right so delicious
1:03
and what you add to it as far as the
1:06
bacon and the different the mayonnaise
1:09
which comes with the good fats in it
1:12
everything is homemade mayonnaise are
1:15
still about mayonnaise
1:16
well I'm a big fan of homemade
1:18
mayonnaise me too my grandfather in
1:22
France actually taught me how to make
1:25
homemade mayonnaise and like you were
1:27
saying you know you're using the good
1:28
fats in that so you can be using the
1:31
olive oil which you have throughout this
1:33
entire book so I just love the fact that
1:37
you've got the good fats in here and
1:39
then you're using your airfryer it's
1:42
phenomenal so we've just got to leave
1:46
off those bad fats that's all we have to
1:49
do and replace them it's not about
1:51
depriving our side or taking away from
1:54
the delicious and wonderful cooking I
1:57
know it I know it nobody wants to think
2:00
and I think that's why people lose
2:04
weight and then they gain it right back
2:05
because nobody likes to think I'm never
2:09
gonna be able to every
2:11
you know nobody nobody wants to live
2:16
that way and when you think about the
2:19
way that you first learned how to cook
2:22
from your grandmother right yes what did
2:26
she teach you about butter like how did
2:28
you know all of this
2:29
I don't know hmm I don't know I just
2:34
knew that margarine was one of those
2:37
things that was but uh early in my
2:40
marriage I had to buy more and I
2:42
couldn't afford butter oh and I knew I
2:46
shouldn't violate the pocketbook
2:49
you know just wouldn't allow me to do it
2:52
but isn't that amazing
2:54
that you knew that and everything that
2:56
you've been doing just aligned so much
2:59
with what our bodies want right so our
3:02
bodies want the good fats every day
3:05
because the good fats activate the
3:08
natural process of youth inside of
3:11
ourselves so it's a whole biological
3:13
thing and by eating good fats that
3:18
little Pacman is in there cleaning
3:21
things up cleaning up the junk and the
3:24
thing about bad fats that we just don't
3:26
realize is when we go to restaurants not
3:30
every restaurant is like your
3:32
restaurants right you provide such a
3:35
blessing to all of your customers
3:37
because you're cooking with peanut oil
3:40
yes and it's more expensive but right I
3:43
would be willing to say there's not many
3:45
restaurants out there there are not that
3:47
do bad we could go out and do a test and
3:50
I do this every day because I try so
3:52
hard to avoid the bad fats and what most
3:55
restaurants do is they'll use the bad
3:58
fats because you can't taste them and
4:00
they're trying to cut down on on on the
4:03
costs and it's an easy way to do it and
4:06
nobody has knows the better for it
4:09
right right nobody gets hurt nobody gets
4:13
hurt or so we think think right that's
4:16
right that's right tell us how to get
4:20
started how do you excellent how do you
4:23
get started well
4:24
I think a great was I am start Monday
4:27
starting this Monday I think the first
4:30
thing you do to get started is to make
4:32
sure you have the right good fats in
4:35
your kitchen so number one is to do
4:38
exactly what you've done all right name
4:40
me some good fat
4:41
okay so olive oil peanut oil is a good
4:45
fat you can use coconut oil as a good
4:48
fat there daughter-in-law uses coconut
4:51
oil it's a great it's a great one you
4:54
can use something called tea seed oil
4:57
which comes from the green tea plant
4:59
it's a little bit more unusual avocado
5:02
oil we've mentioned these are some of
5:05
your really good ones we can chew
5:07
something that you can chew that's a
5:09
good fat well not so well lots of lots
5:13
of the good high-quality fatty meats
5:16
right so you can chew right off the bone
5:18
all sorts of delicious meats you can eat
5:22
that marrow that you share that's a
5:26
great way to get a lot of the good fats
5:28
so I think if we eat the way our
5:31
grandmother's our our grandmother's ate
5:35
on our mother's side it's the very best
5:37
thing we can do for anti-aging for
5:40
health and well-being all right how
5:42
about lettuces sure so with lettuces of
5:46
course I want lots of green leafy
5:49
vegetables but I love the collard greens
5:52
that you make all the dark green leafy
5:56
vegetables and we cook them in ham hocks
5:59
yeah just what gives them that wonderful
6:02
flavor y'all but that's good cuz it's
6:07
about fact it's the best right so the
6:10
ham hock is providing so much additional
6:13
nutrition right into those wonderful
6:16
collard greens and that together is one
6:19
of the best things you can do for your
6:21
health
6:21

6:24
break and we'll be right back I've got

7:25
3300 hey y'all welcome back to what's
7:32
cooking with Paula Deen I'm here with
7:33
Naomi Whittle and we're gonna we're
7:36
talking about
7:37
I asked Naomi to list me some good fats
7:41
that I can cute I think I know what they
7:45
are but I just want to hear it from her
7:50
so yesterday we were talking about
7:53
frozen vegetables yes they are so good
7:56
now because they're flash frozen and
7:59
it's just like they're out of the fields
8:01
there's so much more fresh compared to
8:05
even fresh vegetables the nutrient level
8:07
is at the highest so you're getting like
8:09
two for one when you use the frozen like
8:12
I love frozen black-eyed peas butter
8:15
beans crowder peas Lady peas ladyfinger
8:20
piece all of those are such good
8:22
products and that corn gets a bad rap
8:25
doesn't it it does and I used to be one
8:27
of those foods you should never eat
8:28
right I personally prefer to eat other
8:32
foods but by all means so many people
8:36
love corn oh but I think that you know
8:38
in moderation like what you were saying
8:40
to me yesterday mm-hmm our Silver Queen
8:43
corn in June and
8:45
is so delicious so good and I hear
8:52
there's some great corn in New Jersey in
8:54
the state of Jersey have you heard that
8:57
have heard that as well yes yes
9:00
so naturally potatoes are off the air on
9:04
the table my favorite food in the whole
9:06
world
9:07
oh but I can have one once in a while
9:11
that'll be all right
9:13
and it's that butter that you put on it
9:16
you were you were mentioning to me with
9:20
your with your grandkids and and how you
9:22
know eating a scoop of butter is
9:24
something that you allow them to do and
9:27
he cuz I so good I would have a bowl of
9:31
butter bombs and little Jack would come
9:36
in and he'd crawl up to the table he'd
9:38
reach and then getting my whole bowl and
9:40
just eat it
9:41
uh-huh and my his mother was almost
9:44
attacked it is it's God's gift like you
9:50
were saying God's gift yes and there are
9:54
you know you think about those little
9:55
butter balls they're literally energy
9:58
balls from our help and their fuel for
10:01
our body they're filled with so much of
10:03
the good good clean fat and yesterday we
10:08
ate some of the fat bombs she has fat
10:12
moms yo and you would not believe how
10:16
delicious especially for you dark
10:19
chocolate lovers because the ones that
10:22
you may have brought they are so dark
10:25
right along with your glass of red wine
10:27
I know one of our girls loves red wine
10:31
with yeah together
10:34
she got a nibble on her chocolate yes
10:36
and these were so good y'all and they
10:42
only said you can have three a day which
10:46
that that's great have one in the
10:49
morning and an afternoon snack and for
10:52
some reason I want something sweet right
10:54
before I go to sleep which is which is
10:56
if you have like month after day
10:59
the little fat bomb so we know that the
11:01
fat bomb is opposite of like what a
11:04
normal sweet treat is there's no sugar
11:07
so you use an alternative like stevia
11:10
and there are no carbohydrates so you
11:13
might be using almond butter or
11:15
macadamia nut butter or coconut like the
11:19
lemon ones that we had yesterday and
11:21
they're so satiating they give us so
11:23
much energy oh my god and help us to
11:26
lose fat and after I ate that that
11:29
little fat bomb I mean I was good yeah
11:31
you know right I was just good you feel
11:34
good I you know it was feel satiated
11:36
yeah that was plenty for me and now can
11:42
we order those or they don't have to
11:45
make them we have to make them right now
11:46
but I'm hoping that you make them for
11:48
all of us because only you Pollock could
11:52
make them so delicious and thank you I
11:55
would certainly try hmm we had so much
11:59
fun when I first started with the bag
12:02
lady making gooey butter cakes
12:05
I bet between the team and myself we
12:08
came up with 75 ways Wow to make a gooey
12:12
butter cake and so I'd love to do that
12:15
but the fact I think that would be
12:17
amazing incredible because we're giving
12:21
ourselves yes a treat that's so
12:24
delicious and yet it can really help to
12:27
improve our help
12:28
it doesn't make sense right it doesn't
12:31
make sense but when you explain it to me
12:34
in the scientific way I can understand
12:39
that
12:40
yeah and understanding that what
12:41
happened thank you now thank you so much
