    This entire episode is just iconic. The raisin ageism, tying it to women, this salad as a metaphore for life, a party, a personality, the communal spoon story....I love everything about it.

    i love how Carla goes on a completely unhinged metaphysical tirade about the salad and somehow everybody's here for it. I just can't stop watching her videos. They make my day!

    If Sunkist can rebrand prunes as "dried plums," then I can celebrate our elders through raisin appreciation.

      Didn’t expect a boost to my morale along with a great recipe, but Carla delivers it anyway! Thanks, from a job searcher who is more than a decade past needing your app. 💋

      Isn't it strange that plums and grapes received new names for their dried state of beings.... but everything else is just dried (fruit name) . When I'm aged and have some wrinkles I hope they don't plan to give me a new name. On another note why is it that we can bake a potato but not roast a loaf of bread?

    I adore golden raisins. My mom adds them to her biryani and chicken korma, and those little bursts of sweetness are unbelievably delicious in savory dishes. Yes to raisins!!!

    Omg the 3 million adjectives are giving me life in this video. I wish I had Carla to 'adjectify' my life every day, what a dream 🤣🥳🥰
    And no, I won't ever disregard a raisin ever again. Or any dried fruit for that matter... 🥗🥗🥗

    I used to be anti-raisin but I have come around in the past couple of years. I still really dislike them in sweet foods (NO to oatmeal raisin, NO to raisins in carrot cake!), but in a savory dish? Surprising, uplifting, gorgeous.

    I like the golden raisins for a recipe like this because it does provide nice sweet chewy texture. Apricots may be a good sub too.

    • @jeanniewahine5443
      @jeanniewahine5443 2 роки тому

      Yes! I've been saying that to the comments recommending dried cranberries (those sound good, too). I think dried apricots taste very similar to golden raisins.

    Oh Carla, bless you for making me laugh in these bizarre and painful times! Your videos are seducing me into buying your book, in spite of the fact that I already have shelves full of cookbooks. BTW, I had no idea dried fruit aversion was a thing. I love dried fruit, but I am old, so maybe I am predisposed to have an affinity. 🤣

    I feel like dried cranberries would be a great sub for the raisens. They are red, so they provide that color contrast and they are sweet, and a little sour.

    Hi. I just bought your big yellow cookbook after two weeks of finding your UA-cam channel. Can’t wait to make something !
    Suggestion- maybe put in your future cookbooks a scannable QR code on each recipe so when scanned it takes you to a list of apps that have this recipe being made. And then the reader can select UA-cam t watch that recipe being made as well as have the book
    Thank you for the entertaining and informative low ingredient recipes

How?! Also, Carla taught me how to make a perfect pot of beans and I'm forever grateful. Also, I'm making this salad and my raisin hating husband will have to deal with it!
