in a PICKLE

I’ve been studying food preservation, from pickling & water-bath canning to vacuum-sealing & salt-packing. I’ve run across a huge amount of admirable testing, experimentation and success amongst food-enthusiasts, homemakers, homesteaders, preppers & gardners alike. I am open to almost anything culinary at least once, but some folks are out there just purposely trying to make food, well, wrong. Koolickles. I am almost beyond words this time. Koolickles are created by soaking dill pickles in a mixture of Kool-Aid® & pickle brine. Being open doesn’t always work in my favor, but this next Call definitely does. They are open to almost anything, and it doesn’t have to be Koolickles, I promise…

TAMALE

I love tamales. My life has been dotted with expert tamale makers–the Mexican version. Then I tried Guatemalan tamales. Oh my. The differences are subtle, but important. In Guatemalan tamales, the corn used to make the masa (dough) is not sweet, and they are usually wrapped in leaves, not corn husks. Tamales can come in red & black varieties, both sweet & savory, both large & small. If are the winner of this next Call, they pick up the tab for your ticket & hotel to the opening. Be sure to pick up a tamale while you are in Guatemala! Take a look…

EGGPLANT

My kiddo just turned 16. For his birthday, he didn’t ask for pizza or burgers; he wanted Indian food. So proud. Since his palate took a huge left turn a couple of years ago, eating out with him has been a voyage of firsts. The first taste of Baingan ka Bharta (a spicy mash of eggplant & tomatoes) & Goat Korma were adorable. And hopeful. Finally I can rest knowing that I might have put another foodie out into the world that is willing to eat adventurously. This next Call could be a first opportunity for you at the first show for this gallery. Investigate…

DOUBLE
garden duty

We all eat massive amounts of corn. Since my husband’s Celiac diagnosis, we are a gluten-free household, and it took a lot of work. But, now it is second nature and, really, no big deal. But corn? If I had to try to cut corn out of our diets, we would starve; it is in EVERYTHING. In 2012, the USDA claimed 88% of U.S. corn is GMO. I’m not okay with that, so we are planning an attempt to grow our own soon. Meanwhile, did you know that corn does excellent double duty as a trellis for growing peas? Plus, the peas supply much-need nitrogen to the soil for the corn. Don’t you just love nature? It is in the nature of this next Call to offer DOUBLE the prizes. Make us proud…

A home can extend beyond structural walls to include yards, streets, and the culture of a whole town. Everyone, for better or for worse, has a place they think of as home, a place where personal histories are shaped and life is lived. For ‘At Home,’ Don’t Take Pictures seeks photographs that explore the wide array of environments that people call home.” –donttakepictures.com

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…
