FILTERED

Mellow, slow-cooked flavors are not usually just a product of slow cooking. There are special ingredients that help meld flavors, that calm individual ingredients like onion into more flavorful combinations with other foods. Home-made broths are excellent, and even a quality Worcestershire sauce can make a stove-top dinner feel like a slow-cooked delicacy. My favorite is still sherry vinegar. It is the penultimate calming pan de-glaze much like the neutral density filter, for which this Call is titled, is the most under-appreciated photo filter. I know–segue, right? 🙂 Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from ND Magazine for the Neutral Density Photography Awards. Enter for as little as $20. Win as much as $2500. Investigate…

MILK
or not

It’s that time again. What would I be if I had to portray myself as food? This week I choose kefir. I am fascinated. My new gluten-free regimen had increased my dairy intake, and my son has dairy sensitivities. Enter milk kefir. Kefir is simply milk that is fermented at room temperature with kefir grains for about 24 hours. It has many wonderful health benefits, a great flavor and is also usually tolerated well by the lactose intolerant. I’ve been buying it commercially for $4 a quart, but now I’m going to make it myself. Think of it as a self-portrait…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Woman Made Gallery (Chicago, IL) and juror Carla Williams for The Photographic Self. Self-portraiture of women by women. Don’t miss this chance…

HORSEY-radish

My kid used to be a finicky eater too. I made him try everything–over and over and over. Now he eats spinach and beets and horseradish; so, just hang in there. It’s like my kid, truly KNOWN only to me and my husband, suddenly revealed his human side, the part of him that is a person in his own right. He is proud that he eats foods that his peers don’t. I’m proud too. This next Call wants to see your view of The Human Side. Entry fees don’t get much cheaper…

CHICKEN, anyone?

Fast food is fast, but I sometimes wonder about the food part. Like you, I am frequently too busy to cook or even shop for food for that matter. But, I have found a lazy alternative to fast food, the rotisserie chicken. In my version, I have it over romaine with a little Parmesan, a few croutons, Italian dressing and a couple of pepperoncini on the side. This next Call for Entries, also has a contingency plan for running out of time… the online entry. You have plenty of time until this deadline, but just in case…

Check out this Call for Entries for the 8th Art of Photography Show which is being held at the San Diego Art Institute this year. The cost to enter is about average; however, last year, 1700 people attended the reception, and the award are spectacular. That’s a bargain…

ROAST my CLOVE,
please!

There is something special about the first taste of something special. Chances are good you have no clue the first time you tasted garlic because it is hidden in food as early as Chef Boyardee.

However, it would be surprised if you didn’t remember your first taste of smooth, nutty, creamy roasted garlic. This next call is your chance to be involved in a first for Gallore Gallery.
