on 2 wheels

If you work on a bicycle (cop, messenger, etc), how do you bring your lunch to work?  It isn’t as though bike messengers ride around on trikes with baskets on the back.  Are they, by nature of their transportation, doomed to eat out for lunch everyday.  I’m going to assume they make a special lunch bag just for cyclists.  This next Call is all about the bicycle as well.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Theater Art Galleries (TAG in High Point, NC) for THE BICYCLE: Art Meets Form.  This theme is not as uncommon as you might think, so if you’re looking for inspiration…

The hot-fresh-now doughnut purveyor is very popular during tourist season in the Smokies.  Summertime often means a car line for the drive thru stretches for a 1/4 mile down the Parkway.  I don’t understand.  I’ll stand in line, or sit in line, for a lot of foods, but why doughnuts?  Donuts with a K are everywhere aren’t they?  What makes them so special while you’re on vacation?  It baffles me.  This next Call does NOT baffle me, and the name is all about the lines.  Check out the gallery and/or online show choice.  Interesting option…

What’s your favorite edible flower?  Most of us have had a lilac or rose petal infused whipped cream.  But I want to encourage you to try a little Calendula in place of saffron or peppery Nasturtium salad.  Just remember that blooms used in cooking must be orgainic–no exceptions.  Also, be sure to wash them well to remove all traces of fertilizers like manure.  This next Call is all about blooms, edible or not.  Take a look…

I am addicted to salty crunch–but not in the way you would think.  It isn’t potato chips, although I do love them dearly.  No, I am newly addicted to bananas with peanut butter and chunky sea salt.  Odd, I know.  It was a happy accident, really.  We buy unsalted natural peanut butter and salt it ourselves.  And, when my salt grinder started acting up, I ended up with HUGE salt boulders on my bananas with peanut butter.  Now, they HAVE to be boulders.  This next Call might just appreciate my happy accident.  Check it out…

DARKER

I usually like to get food as close to the source or source process as possible.  But, I cannot bring myself to love Mexican chocolate.  Most of the world uses a conche for varying lengths of time to incorporate cocoa butter within chocolate.  The longer the processing, the smoother the chocolate.  But Mexican chocolate is still often stone-ground which produces a gritty texture.  I am addicted to dark chocolate, but I want it smoooooth.  This next Call offers the opportunity for you to be dark and either smooth or gritty.  To each their own…

Olive oil seems quintessentially Italian to me.  But, did you know that the top producer of olive oil, by a fairly wide margin, is Spain? I always think of it as Italian or Greek.  This next Call is not just about oil, but water too.  Take a look at this opportunity…

trick

Fresh fish is so close I can almost taste it.  No really, my husband literally goes around the corner to fish for brook trout that my municipality stocks the local river with from the government-run hatchery to ensure tourists can fish.  You can’t make up a story like that.  Well, yes, you can, but I didn’t; I swear.  No lake trip necessary.  But a trip to the sea would make for great inspiration for this next Call.  Here’s another opportunity…

weirdness

As I become more food wise, I also become more food wary.  Even proven combinations like chocolate & peanut butter or mozzarella & balsamic become tiresome.  And as I get bored, I start branching out and trying foods together just out of curiosity.  Watermelon with olive oil & basil is delightful, by the way.  That combination is as good as the combination award for this next call.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from SlowArt Productions for A Show of Heads at the Limner Gallery (NY).  The awards for this show include BOTH a gallery show & art publication.  Great combo…

Knife skills are important if you are interested in becoming a commercial cook or chef.  However, I think the ground floor of cooking well, of understanding HOW to cook well, lies in sauce skills.  Once you understand how to make the 5 French mother sauces, you’ll understand the art of balance and the science of how food works.
