BEET SALAD FOR CYCLISTS

Welcome everybody to another episode of kosher.com. I'm here with a good friend of mine, Rabbi Truly Freed, director of Kalifi New Jersey. >> Yas, I'm going to interrupt you. You know, I've spoken in a lot of places, >> but it's always been my dream to be on your show. So, what an honor to be on closure.com. Hey there, I'm Yasu Rice and welcome to my home where the hustle and bustle of shopping, cooking, and cleaning all week is our way of preparing the chabases. So when that special moment arrives, we sit back, take a deep breath, and say out loud, ahm says shabas. Rabbi Freed is director of high lifeline. He is the director and producer of Bike for High. We're here. It's the middle of the summer. Bike for is just around the corner and we're making beet salad today. Now, beets are really good for you if you're cycling. So, for this episode, we're going to make the beet salad. Rabbi is going to tell us why beats are good for bike riding. It's bike fai season. Everybody's up with bike cam simka. I've been there multiple times. I've been on the ride. Some of my followers have followed me along on the ride. This is the way we're going to do it. I'm going to make beet salad. Rabbi F is going to talk about bike forkai. As you can tell, Yasi is an avid cyclist. For those of you questioning his physique, please understand that bike forkai is the only sporting endurance event in the world that they say you gain weight on the ride. So, so Yasi has been involved in um bike from its inception. Yes. Um from when it left the first year when David Edgard left in 2009 from the Lifeline Lakewood actually was in front of the first Yasi store, Yasis Deli on Clifton Avenue and since then it has evolved to become the number one. You >> remember the sporting? Yes, I do. the charity sporting event in the world. And again, as you can tell, Yasi is an avid cyclist. But what does that have to do with beets? Look at this. We're cutting up this most delicious beet salad because bike we know is 180 mi ride. And you need that oxygen and you have to have that endurance. And for avid cyclists, they know that if you eat beets 2 to three hours before a ride, it increases your endurance. It increases your oxygen throughout your body and thus your output would be the same with a lot less energy. So this is the salad we should all be cutting up right before couple hours before. So if we're riding on a Sunday morning at 10:00 a.m. we can be eating beet salad at 7:00 a.m. or if you're riding at 5:00 a.m. obviously you're going to be eating your beet salad with your rain during malava mala. So, not only that, you're making fun of me that I'm an avid cyclist. When it comes to cycling, it's all about speed. >> I'm sorry. I'm sorry. >> It's all about average speed. >> Now, when it comes to downhill, I'm the one that will always win. Okay, guys. Just remember that. >> Okay, cut. That's it. Enough. >> Okay, I spoke enough. >> You spoke enough, guys. Guys, >> get rid of me. >> No, no, no. I want to finish the salad. That's it. >> I'm making fun of you ways. >> It's okay. Okay, Robert's still talking. I I cut him off. We're going to finish the salad. This is going to be a yummy beet salad. Eat it before you ride. If you're not riding, get into cycling. You'll have the time of your life. I can tell you that. I've been there, done that. >> Yassi, yiasi. Are there carbs in these beets? >> So, carbs come with the pasta party. We don't eat carbs. This is before the pasta party. Can I please finish, please, >> guys? Some Tuscanini, extra virgin olive oil. Let me finish the salad cuz I want it to be good. While you're riding, you have 180 mi to think of nothing. So, what you're going to think is that beet salad you had. And then we're going to add some silan, which is pure date syrup, which is yummy. No honey, pure date syrup. It's actually from the shasam also here over here. You see that? Now, for a little spice, a little hot honey. Now, again, I used the geen cooked beets, which is a great great product. You can find them in Costco. You can find them in all your local supermarkets. If you want, you can cook your own beets. I have yellow beets. I have red beets. I have whatever color beets that is. have beets with the dazz have all different types of beets. I'm going to add a little bit of candied pecans, a little bit of pomegranates, parsley. Rabbi, I don't know if you know, give me a reason why pumpkin seeds are good before riding. You have any reasons, Rabbi? Pumpkin seeds, >> please. >> You explain you're the food, not me. >> A little shaman spice, a little cumin. I need a knife. I don't know where my knives are. I'm using my kala knife, guys. I'm sorry. I'm g a little lemon, a little lime. You know, you know, Rabbi, before we continue, I think we should take a break on some Baron Herz. >> Please, let's make the reason I chose Baron Herz melo over something else is because of Manchester, the color of the beats. >> And as team Lakewood will tell you, drinking before a ride is very healthy. Does that go specifically to team Lakewood or >> Oh, that's just the champion. >> To a successful ride. Make sure >> ride to a safe ride. >> A safe ride. Successful ride for the children. Looking forward to seeing you all at the world's greatest finish line. >> Where's it going to be this year? >> This is the first year ever at the raceway in Monteello. >> Oh, really? So, for all of you that want to know, when you're up to mile 80, 85, 90, and I've been there, and I've done that, you start talking to yourself, okay? Cuz it gets hard. And it's like, okay, can I drink more? >> Yeah. No, no, give me I'm going to talk. You're going to drink. And you start talking to yourself. You're like, okay, this is all for the kids. It's all for the kids. This is my 80, my 85, my 90. Okay. Then when it comes to mile 100, you forget about the kids and you say, "Okay, this is all for the cold beer when I get there. This is all for the cold beer when I get there. That cold beer that I had after 100 miles." >> So why don't you do it again, Yasi? >> Okay, we're going to talk about it. I free. Here we go. That's for me now. Give me one for you. And we're going to taste the zagazent. Everybody got to get back to work. Don't use your fingers. What are we using? Forks. Here we go. You also made a No. Did I? >> Definitely feels like I can ride 180 mi now. >> Absolutely. No sugar with this, right? Salon. We don't do sugar. Bike riders don't do Oh, I forgot the sea salt. Rabbi, come here. You know why I just see salt? You know the cyclists have uh salt pills before they cycle cuz that helps with the water. You would think it makes you more thirsty. It doesn't. It's good for later. Right. Talk to me about the salt pills. Can >> I get doubles? It's delicious. To all you cyclist, have a safe trip. Remember, it's all for the kids. Here's Rabbi Sie Freed and he approves this message. >> This beet salad pre-ride and don't forget be riding early Sunday morning, you can't eat the salad, you can count your as your pre-ride endurance food. >> Thank you very much everybody. Until next episode. This has been real. Thank you. It >> absolutely is delicious. Looking forward to serve you my new restaurant in Lakewood. Raaba Gripas.
