Using fresh raw onion will protect avocado from browning - when we have some opened avocado to store, we put it in a sealed container with a few onion slices - and it really slows down the browning effect. (It never lasts long enough to brown in our house). It would work really well in the avocado dressing - but consider who is eating it. Some people can't handle to raw onion, even if it is blended into the source.)

You can also add some cold water 💧 to a dish & put your avocado 🥑 face down in your dish of water. 💧 You can also smooth down your Guacamole & add some cold water to the top layer, 💧 then when you are ready to use it again, just dump the water, stir & enjoy! 😉

Chocdaisy's Rad Plant Living It’s a genetic thing that affects certain olfactory receptors in some people. To some of us, it tastes like soap due to that receptor picking up the aldehyde in the cilantro. Aldehyde is also used in making soap. Apparently, it is also found in some insects, so some people say cilantro tastes like a stink bug. I really want to know who is eating stink bugs to be able to make that comparison.

[@seeworthyglass2880]

Love you channel Derrick, found it about 2 weeks ago. I’m not a vegan (yet) but I did help start a vegan cafe because I love veggies and the cuisine. Thanks for all the awesome content you put out. You may already know this but I noticed you didn’t point this out for your hummus sauce, and maybe the vita mix is such a beast it doesn’t matter, but hummus is one of my favorite snacks so I wanted to share this tip. Shell your garbanzos/chick peas before you drop them in the blender. I’ve made a lot of hummus and never knew why I couldn’t reach that creamy store bought consistency. Dump your can or soaked beans in a big bowl covering them with water, and massage then with your hands. This pulls off the clearish husk that’s on the beans. Get 60-70% off and it will dramatically help the consistency of the final product. Again maybe not necessary with a vita mix but could help some. Keep up the great work and inspiration!

@@jemimahkendall6579 we eat a varied source of food, humans around the world are over all the most diverse species' on the planet, some people in other regions can tolerate other foods than others, like meat, dairy, vegetables whatever. However, the foods that are junk are processed saturated in fat, sugar, caffeine all of which are stimulants for the brain and they are found in pretty much all foods unless you grow or raise your own in your back yard. These processed, junk foods were designed to be addictive. So my point is that this just makes raw healthy food seem disgusting. Those raised in tribes or natural environments as apposed to Western ideals of food may be used to fresh veg and none processed meat etc. Hopefully my point is a valid response

@@jemimahkendall6579 They're talking about junk food, not meat. Also, I used to be really picky about meat as a kid (and I'm Mennonite so I was surrounded by meat haha) and not picky about most vegetables and fruits. I'm not vegan or anything, but using "kid pickiness" as a metric to judge the health of a food is pretty silly. Plenty of things kids are picky about (especially since they're more sensitive to bitterness) are incredibly delicious to most/many adults. Eg. wine, beer, asparagus, olives, weird meats, seafood, liver and onions, etc. I used to hate broccoli and now lightly sauteed broccoli in pasta is one of my favourite things.

Kobe Lambert facts

[@ariannapflederer]

Jemimah Kendall my kids started out eating meat, and meat was the thing they were always picky about. Veggies on the other hand they always ate without a problem. And now at 5, 4, and 1 they still eat any veggie you put in front of them. My kids will even eat celery, which I don’t get 😂 It really has to do with what your taste buds are used to. Many families just don’t do a lot of veggies, and so their kids aren’t getting them regularly. Very quickly parents are feeding their children processed snacks instead as well. My husband grew up in a house that always had vegetables and he grew up liking them all. I on the other hand grew up rarely eating them, and I had huge texture issues and I did not like any cooked vegetables except corn. Fast forward going vegan and my taste buds have changed entirely, texture aversions almost completely gone, and now I’ll eat a whole plate of cooked broccoli for a snack just because! 🙂

These sauces look like they rock! I'm going to try them. One thing I noticed, though. You never lick the spoon and then tap it back into the batch! LOL

[@aNewCreation2cor517]

IKR?! 😬 Yikes! Even if he's the only one using it, saliva naturally breaks it all down, and in a few hours the remaining sauce will be thin and runny. Anyone that's saved a jar of baby food or partially eaten yogurt will know this. Yuk

[@julieowens7095]

Yeah, this kinda freaked me out. The bacteria from the mouth can multiply quickly in left over sauces (food).

Thank you! Dressings are key to a great salad bowl. 👍🏻😊

To make them low fodmap, you can sub maple syrup for dates, sub garlic infused oil for garlic and onion.

HAha. One of the first cultivated foods for a reason. ;)

[@sidilicious11]

Jordan Commander my grocery store keeps downsizing the box size of medjool dates. First I could special order 11 lb boxes. Then they cut it down to 2 lb containers, now they won’t carry boxes more than a 1 lb container. Grrr

rick steve's bong soak and agitate the sprouts in a bowl of water and most fall off. I’m sure there are other ways to go about it, but that usually does the trick for me.

I put the avocado sauce over black beans w/yellow rice topped with cilantro, green onions and diced fresh tomatoes. Pooh yum!

Valentina is my FAVORITE hot sauce.

[@scwheeler24]

This is a great recipe that you don't have to cook, basically needing cashews and Nutritional yeast. I love that. But, for me and others who may like to eat very low fat, well, I can't be to liberal with it, and we like our sauces, it takes an ordinary bunch of veggies and potatoes to another level. So I experimented with it and tried using some leftover potatoes I had in fridge. I doubled the recipe and subbed potatoes for the cashews, half of it. Came out delicious. Couldn't tell there were potatoes in it. This week I had no LO potatoes, but I had oatmeal, so I subbed 1/2 of the cashews with 1/2 oatmeal. Delicious, can't tell there are oats in it. I add quite a bit more lemon juice, I like it tangier. This sauce is a hit. 5 stars

[@sevenstarred]

i think my life would be miserable wihtout sauces, so i soak everything just in case XD i think i'll replace cilantro with basil and a bit of parsley, i'm not a huge fan of cilantro, especially not in this quantity X)) great video as always, thx for the recipes

[@Simnettnutrition]

Emese Balogh ohh that’s a great idea! I should have tried some different herbs.

[@miaalbani1640]

Emese Balogh can also substitute fresh dill for cilantro

[@dthedad7330]

Liked just for the cilantro! Yum!

Green onion would be a good substitute if you don’t like cilantro

I actually love the fact that you use whole foods and not just anything technically vegan. A lot of people think if something is vegan it is healthy but it isn’t. When I started switching to plant based diets I just found that a lot of people just made vegan recipes that didn’t tackle nutrition but only no animal product. Thanks!!!

Thank you! I turned mostly to Asian cooking to get more taste to vegetables but your giving me another flavor option. Hello salads again, sorry I called you boring. Here's flavor! I want to try the avocado one over oven grilled Brussel sprouts and red cabbage. No, red clover greens and dandelions. Or fried turnips fingers and radish greens? Let's just try them all!

The absorption thing is overblown. You only need maybe 4 g of fat or so with a meal for adequate absorption. You can get that without any added fat.
