Curtis, I just want to say 00:16 that we're gonna start off by making the dough, 00:18 that's gonna go with the franks, okay. 00:21 Okay. So, why don't you go ahead and start putting it. 00:22 Well, let's may do the recipe first okay. 00:24 Okay, let's go look at the recipe and see what we 00:26 got first as far as the ingredients is concerned. 00:28 Okay, let's do it. It calls for: 00:48 Curtis, okay now. 00:53 Okay and you know, how I was getting excited 00:55 because I was.

Okay, let's. 01:09 Now you try and get out of work, okay. 01:11 Let's put the pastry flour in. 01:13 Okay. And, we got the unbleached flour with 01:15 a germ, we can use that, this is your spatula there. 01:17 Oh! Okay. It will be easier. 01:18 Alright. Okay. There we go. 01:20 Yeah, I was just wondering why. 01:21 We got our baking powder. Okay. 01:24 Okay. And, we're gonna put in the salt. 01:28 Salt? And, this is your favorite thing 01:30 I know you like to do this and that is 01:32 we will stir up little bit. Stir up with the fork. 01:34 Yeah. Okay, Stir it up little bit and once again 01:37 we got that cold margarine, 3 tablespoons 01:39 of cold margarine. I'm gonna go ahead 01:40 and start slicing that in. Umm! Umm! 01:42 Okay. Now, why cold honey, why cant' you just melt 01:45 melt the margarine. Well, if it's melted 01:47 it's not gonna crumble up like. Oh! You need a. 01:49 Like a cornmeal. Okay. I see. Okay. Okay. So, let me 01:52 let's get that, I want that off here. 01:54 Now, are we gonna get back to Frank or I mean why not 01:57 Bill was in here, I mean. Why we call 01:59 a Franks in a Blanket, it's just people recognize that 02:01 as hot dogs as a matter of fact on this program. 02:03 Oh! Franks, okay. When using a smart dog, that's put up 02:06 Lightlife and it's a veggie protein link. 02:10 Okay. There is no meat at all, 02:12 it's a real good substitute and for those who does 02:14 still like hot dogs, 02:17 it takes a place of, so Frank's is just basically 02:18 the word for another word for the word hot dog. 02:20 I see. It is a zero fat and it has a very, no 02:26 cholesterol whatsoever. No cholesterol or zero fat. 02:28 And, it's very, very low in calorie. 02:30 And, no saturated fat. No saturated fat, okay. 02:33 So, it's a good one to use. I really like 02:35 this particular hot dog and it's very good 02:37 for this particular program itself. 02:39 So, you're crumbing that all up. 02:40 Yes, I'm. Put that in a crumble and then for me, 02:42 what I'm gonna do is that I'm just go ahead 02:43 and take an add in your milk. Just a little bit more, 02:47 little bit more and let me help you with that. 02:49 You want to help me? I don't take that, alright. 02:52 I wasn't doing fast enough. No, you can use a pastry 02:55 blender also to do the same thing. 02:57 Okay. Okay, and let's go ahead on now and I'm gonna 03:01 start pouring the milk in very slowly, as you can't, 03:03 and keep on, Yes. Mixing it. Kind of move it around, 03:06 just keep on stirring. Okay. And, I usually sometime, 03:11 you might have to use additional amount of milk 03:12 because we are now talking about a pastry flour 03:15 and an unbleached which sometimes, okay. 03:18 And just do one more there and have some extra flour 03:21 on this side just in case. Okay, hold on, hold on. 03:24 Oh! And we don't want to create too much gluten. 03:26 I'm getting too excited. Move your, 03:28 move your fork out of the way. Okay. 03:29 I got kind of carried away there. 03:31 Umm! Umm! Okay, now I like this, this particular recipe 03:35 and we have been working on this for a while to get. 03:39 I like stuff that is normal things that people like to eat. 03:43 Yeah. And they just say, there is no way you can 03:45 change that into anything. No way. 03:47 More healthy, no way, no way. And, no meat in here, 03:49 I mean this is not from animal product at all. 03:52 Right, what I gonna do... Soy base. 03:54 put some flour on my hands and then put some 03:56 flour on the board, okay. So, now you're about 04:00 to make the blanket, is that correct? 04:01 Now I'm getting ready to make the actual... 04:04 Biscuit is gonna be covering all this. 04:06 Okay. Okay. Put that there, let's get a spatula 04:11 and let's get it out. And, you made this of course 04:14 you made this for the show last night. 04:16 And, I'm going to half a cup. And, while you were sleeping 04:19 honey, I almost ate one of these bad boys. 04:21 I'm so glad, you did not. I came very close. 04:23 I'm so glad, you did not Curtis, 04:24 I know you didn't. Oops. Yeah, okay. Okay. 04:27 They didn't hear that. They didn't hear. 04:28 No they didn't. Okay, let's get little bit 04:30 more flour, this wants to come out. 04:31 Okay. Now, we're gonna do. Now, they are the other types 04:36 of soy base links as well, but we like this one 04:41 in particular, the Lightlife. But there is other ones out 04:43 there on the market as well. 04:44 Right, right. People can use and they can get that. 04:46 Now, at your regular grocery stores. 04:48 You don't have to go through the regular health food store. 04:53 See the regular grocery store. Regular grocery stores, yes. 04:55 What we gonna do is we gonna to notice 04:57 that I got flour, everywhere. Because you're baking baby, 04:59 you're cooking so. I'm baking it. 05:01 We would not trying to be neat here. Okay. 05:04 Okay. What am I do, is I'm gonna go 05:05 ahead on and put on. 05:12 get this out of the way. And we're gonna take our 05:14 rolling pan and it become roll. 05:16 This is only for a couple of hot dogs, 05:20 I just did half of it, so you can get the idea 05:22 what it is at the end of the show, 05:23 you will get a chance to see, what happens. 05:25 And, we're now producing the blanket for frank. 05:29 And, you can take the glass and or a biscuit cutter. 05:33 Okay. Alright. We're gonna use glass on this one. 05:35 Alright. And, we just gonna place it down 05:36 and we're going to just create. 05:39 Oh! Very good. Like that. Let's do a second one 05:43 that we have two there. Alright. 05:45 Okay. And this is the blanket. This is the blanket 05:48 and would you get me the hot dog. 05:51 And, the smart dog. And I like this because you can actually 05:53 stretch it out little bit. Okay. Then we're gonna. 05:55 That by in a lengthwise. Lengthwise, okay. 05:57 And, we're gonna bring that over. 05:59 So, now the frank is nice and warm in his blanket. 06:03 And, I like to rub it a little bit, roll it little bit. 06:05 Okay. And, then we're gonna just put it seam side down. 06:10 Same side down, let's do one more bad boy, okay. 06:12 And let's do one more, let's do one more. 06:17 Alright, that was kind of fun. Well, for you, 06:18 not for me, okay. Alright, So, nice and warm 06:20 the blanket. Now, we are gonna have a pillow with 06:23 with the blanket or just a blanket enough. 06:25 Not a pillow. Not a pillow, just a blanket. 06:26 Not a pillow. Not a pillow. I like to roll it 06:28 that way it gets nice and even. 06:30 Yes. Fix it round, all the way around. 06:32 Okay. And. Once again we're gonna actually 06:34 just lay it down. And, this is goes in the oven 06:36 seam side down once again, it's gonna go in the oven 06:40 at 425 degrees for just about 15 minutes. 06:45 You want to check on it, because it is 400 degrees 06:47 that actual blanket as Curtis calls it, it's gonna turn 06:51 to nice golden brown and you will actually see it. 06:54 Well, our program is over. I like this one because. 06:57 It has 8. 8 Franks in here. 8 comes in a package, okay. 07:02 Okay. So, basically when you roll this dough out, 07:04 you should be able to get 8 actual blankets. 07:08 Okay. Now, what can we eat with this 07:10 Okay. Now, what can we eat with this other than just 07:12 that less got few seconds left. Okay, 07:13 I would serve this with a nice let's say a nice tomato soup. 07:16 Okay. Or you can actually serve it up with a salad. 07:19 Because remember now we're trying to also make sure 07:21 we don't have lot of calories. How about one of those 07:24 who will have 45 calories in it. Well, okay. One frank. 07:27 One frank. And, by the time you add biscuit to it, 07:29 it's gonna be less than 100 calories. 07:30 Right, this is whole wheat. And, it's also thin. 07:31 Yes. A thin crust, so, Okay. You know, what we're going 07:34 to do that is we gonna to go ahead 07:36 and put that in the 3ABN oven. 07:37 And, when we come back you will see the finished products. 07:41 So, we want you to stay by. |
