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…

Check out this Call for Entries from La Fototeca & Guatemala.com (Guatemala) for Guatephoto 2015. $25 entry. Printing & exhibit costs are covered.  And winners get a ticket & hotel for the opening!  An excellent int’l opportunity…

Niche market foods abound.  Don’t you ever wonder who decided, “I want to grow lavender mint microgreens when I grow up”?  But someone grows lavender mint microgreens.  I used to wonder if there was a place for me in the market to make goat cheese for a living, but I have dismissed feeling like the market was too small to support my goat cheese obsession.  But now the idea of raising goats and making cheese sounds like I want to be an agricultural giant by comparison to lavender mint microgreens, eh?  This next Call is all about the niche market.  Take a look…
