0:13

0:16
cooking with Paula Dean this week and
0:18

0:27
bye-bye so as I was saying y'all
0:30
uh welcome to what's cooking with Paula
0:33
Dean today is all about uh questions
0:36
I've got a stack of questions from uh
0:39
our listeners and our viewers out there
0:42
and I'm so I'm trying to to get their
0:44
questions answered and I was calling
0:47
Linda but you know this may be this is a
0:50
Monday so everybody may be hard at work
0:54
but I'm going to try to answer her
0:56
question anyway and her question is what
0:59
is the most important ingredient that
1:01
you like to cook with well hands down
1:03
honey that's got to be
1:07
butter my food would not be the same
1:11
without
1:12
butter
1:14
and they have done
1:16
studies after studies after studies and
1:20
they're now telling everybody that
1:23
butter is really not bad for you well
1:27
I've been trying to tell them that for
1:29
years but they never call me and ask
1:31
me but listen it's pure it's from the
1:35
cow that God gave us uh I don't do
1:39
margarin but enjoy your pure butter you
1:44
know yes do we need to use moderation
1:48
absolutely but if you're going to eat
1:51
eat the pure thing and they're even
1:55
saying now that uh butter
1:59
does less damage to you than Olive Oil
2:03
so you know these studies they're
2:07
constantly changing their mind on things
2:09
but right now that's the current
2:11
information and I was so happy to hear
2:15
they verified what I had been saying so
2:18

11:19
question uh hey Vanessa it's Pauline I'm
11:22
sorry you were unavailable to take your
11:24
call I would have loved chatting with
11:27
you girl but thanks for your question
11:31
bye-bye so y'all here was our question
11:34
how do you make your double layer
11:37
pineapple upside down cake well I've got
11:40
a recipe out there uh for a double
11:44
pineapple layer cake and I'm trying to
11:46
remember the last time I made it um it
11:50
seems
11:52
like uh I don't mean to be a name
11:54
dropper but uh few years back uh uh
12:00
Oprah asked if she could shoot a show
12:03
with me at uh at my house and I said
12:06
yeah girl I'd love to have you she said
12:09
well Gail's going to come with me I said
12:10
I'd love to have her too y'all come on
12:14
but seems like it was
12:16
Gail that said she wanted a pineapple
12:19
upside down cake that that was her
12:21
favorite and it this may have been
12:24
somebody else but I'm thinking it was
12:26
Gail Oprah's friend and so I had a
12:30
layered up pineapple upside down cake uh
12:34
it's been a few years so I can't
12:36
remember how to do it so I would go on
12:39
the
12:41
website uh I'd go to pen.com and pull up
12:47
uh a double layer or a layered pineapple
12:52
upside down cake and it'll be there and
12:55
you've really got my brain to going oh
12:59
Vanessa on that question so I'm going to
13:01
have to go find it because I've been
13:03
thinking every day I was going to make a
13:05
pineapple upside down cake oh my
13:08
goodness and that one was so good it was
13:11
so big and it was so dense and it was a
13:14
dadgum delicious so I'm telling you go
13:19
to the website see if you can find it
13:21
I'm going to do the same thing cuz I
13:24
would like to remake it and until next
13:27
