Flavors of Florida | Dinner DeeAs

Описание: Celebrate the Sunshine State with a fresh, plant-based feast! ☀️ In this episode of Dinner DeeAs, we welcome food journalist and podcaster Dalia Colón, author of the new hit The Florida Vegetarian Cookbook. Dalia shows us how to transform local Florida produce into three show-stopping, make-ahead dishes.


Inside the Florida Vegetarian Kitchen:
Cool & Crunchy Ramen Salad: Throw away the salty flavor packet! Learn how to use crushed dry ramen noodles to add a satisfying crunch to a fresh cabbage and broccoli salad. Dalia shares the secret of how the lemon dressing softens the noodles perfectly without ever turning on the stove.


Ruby Red Roasted Beet Hummus: Turn a humble beige dip into a vibrant, earthy showstopper. This nutrient-packed hummus uses roasted beets to achieve a stunning color and deep flavor—perfect for charcuterie boards or healthy wraps.


"No-Mess" Mexican Street Corn Salad: All the flavors of Elote without the cob! Dalia explains how lime juice and salt "cook" the fresh corn for you, creating a tangy, creamy salad that’s easy to share at picnics or beach days.


Pro-Tips from Dalia Colón:
Acidity as Heat: Discover how lemon and lime juice can act as a cooking agent to soften tough vegetables and raw corn.


Kid-Friendly Kitchen Tasks: Why crushing ramen noodles with a tiny hammer is the perfect way to get children involved in meal prep.


The "Little Black Dress" of Dips: Why Tahini is the essential foundation for any custom hummus recipe.
