CALL for ENTRIES: Emotion

love

I am emotionally attached to goat cheese. I recognize how very irrational that is, but the fact remains that “I love goat cheese.”  I dream about it.  Eating herb-crusted goat cheese on freshly-backed foccacia with a few capers is the height of emotional eating for me.  It can take away almost ANY bad day.  No joke.  Luckily, my bad days are not too frequent, ha.  This next Call wants to know about your Emotional quirks.  Don’t miss this chance…

Check out this Call to Artists for Emotion from the Linus Galleries (California). The exhibit offers an online listing as well as the possibility for a showing in one of their brick and mortar galleries. Take a look…

a cab

I would hurt someone for a pepper-crusted cut of ahi right now. Understand, ahi is not a common food in my house.  I’m too cheap, and Gatlinburg isn’t really known for more exotic varieties of fish.  But some days you wake up and you just want what you want.  You know what would be even better?  A big glass of Cabernet Sauvignon to go with the ahi tuna.  Okay, the Cab I can pull off pretty easily.  This next Call gives you a perfect reason to sample a little Cabernet Sauvignon as well.  Take a look…

STUFF!

I eat more cake than I’d like to admit.  In my household, it is most often in the form of cupcakes.  It is not because I prefer the taste or portion control of cupcakes.  But I find that cupcakes are easier to freeze and store.  Did you know that freezing cake (or cupcakes) before they have completely cooled traps some of the moisture in the cake?  It also makes them easier to cut or decorate.  This next Call will test the depth of your taste for the sweet stuff.  Take a look…

You know I love tiny foods.  We’ve talked about micro greens, baby vegetables and amuse bouche more times than I can count; however, sometimes a smaller size is just practical.  I am addicted to spaghetti squash, and I am constantly on the hunt for the smallest one I can find.  How much food a spaghetti squash produces is just crazy.  This next Call is all about size…regardless of the reason.  Take a look…

I had salmon “en papillote” tonight.  Fear not, it just means “in parchment”.  Contrary to what you might think, it is not the French-cool-factor that leads me down the path of parchment cooking. (Okay, maybe a little.) The real reason is because it is healthy since it requires so little fat.  Okay, that’s a lie too.  The truth?  There is virtually no cleanup.  No dirty saute pans.  Yep, laziness has lead to French cooking.  Go figure.  This next Call is all about the paper too.  Take a look…

Is it too early for mulled wine?  Don’t tell me that you don’t know what mulled wine is either.  It is usually a great red (I prefer merlot), gently warmed with mulling spices–usually allspice, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, star anise and various dried fruit peels.  Try it; you won’t be sorry.  This next Call may be best read with your own glass of wine.  Investigate…

Louis Singh says, “St Ives in the 1970s was a somewhat lazier place than today. Late morning deals were customarily made with cigarette in one hand and glass of sherry in the other. Back then my father had the Wills Lane gallery which ensured my mind was constantly flooded with images of the St Ives School as soon as my eyes had opened.

“When I was ten my parents opened the Beaux Arts gallery in Bath which continued to nurture these Cornish roots. These days with a sister gallery in London, minus the sherry, not much has changed. I busy myself by keeping the gallery from growing old by steering some youth and raw contemporary talent, towards its doors.”

cross the road?

The best part of hitting the open road is, of course, the FOOD.  My practice is to spend a little time surveying the locals of where we are about the best place to eat.  Inevitably, I get a significant number of people that refer me to the same place.  And it always ends up being “the best breakfast” or “the best burger” in town.  Getting eggs right isn’t easy, folks, and I always appreciate a good reference.  This next Call is all about hitting the road.  Investigate for yourself…
