CALL for ENTRIES: Surviving the Storm

FOOD
for survival

New Orleans is one of my favorite cities for food. I really believed that Hurricane Katrina would put an end to the complex palate of taste that defined this beautiful town for me. I had the privilege to visit a mere 2 years after the tropical disaster. I was amazed. You can’t keep New Orleans down then, now or EVER. This next Call wants your perspective on the impact–maybe even culinary. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Humans vs. Nature

Posted on April 22, 2015April 22, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

to MEAT or
not to MEAT

I am not currently a vegetarian, but I think I could be without that much difficulty. It is a personal choice that I have examined over the years. As Jon & I head toward a more agrarian lifestyle, I recognize that I am unwilling to take the life of an animal living on my farm (chickens, rabbits & goats). Instead, I leave that job to my husband who has less of a debate with it than I do. Does that mean I should not be willing to eat them–since I couldn’t kill them? This is my current philosophical internal dialogue. These animals offer my family the best way to get protein, but the chickens & goats can produce protein in the form of eggs & milk without it resulting in their demise. Should we choose NOT to kill them? I know both sides of the argument. Do I choose not to eat it if I cannot kill it? The war of human versus nature rages in my mind as it does in this next Call from F-Stop. Take a look & offer your best…

simple
STAPLE

I have grits for breakfast 3+ days per week. I have a favorite brand of organic, non-GMO grits that never cease to inspire. On a busy morning, it is scrambled eggs over the top of cheese grits. The next morning, the refrigerated left over grits are cut into cakes that are sauteed and used as the base for Eggs Benedict. This morning it was Charleston-style milk grits with a poached egg & chorizo. There is no end to the independent spirit of this simple staple. This next Call is an inspiration of grits proportions as well. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Embracing our Differences

Posted on October 15, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

sweet or
SOUR?

There’s a battle brewing in my house. We live within 15 miles of two apple orchards. We only have room for a 5lb. bag of apples each week. This time of year, Crispins (green/golden apples) get my vote, while my husband seems single-mindedly obsessed with Braeburns (red apples). I don’t care what color they are, but red apples tend to be sweeter. We’ve finally taken to trading off weeks. On my weeks, I get to eat my slightly sour raw green apples; on his weeks, we make apple tarts, pies & crisps out of the red variety. I’m trying to embrace our differences–like the them of this next Call. Take a look…

TAMALE

Apparently, I’m a hot tomato. Yep. I have a friend from Honduras for whom English is a 3rd language. And she likes to call me a hot tomato. She uses it in reference to my writing and singing style, and I’ve decided to take it as a compliment. The first few times I heard it, I gently reminded her that she meant ‘tamale’ not ‘tomato’. But eventually, I came to think she may be right. I look good in red. I am occasionally rounder than other times. My insides are squishy, but the contents vary from sweet to acid–determined by environment. This next Call is looking for all thinks tomato–apparently including me. Love this theme…

JAM
not jelly

Chia seeds are fascinating. I have started using them to make raw, small-batch refrigerator jam from overripe fruit. Yum. The seeds are hydrophilic, absorbing up to 12 times their weight in liquid when soaked. While soaking, the seeds develop a mucilaginous gel-like coating that gives my jam a fantastic texture. I feel a little like a mad scientist every time I use them, ha. Here’s a science (& art) call for the Chicago area. Investigate…

FRENCH FRY

I’m fascinated by the prospect of using veggie oil as an alternative fuel for powering cars & heating homes. I’m not ready to jump to the change; however, I do have some fundamental questions. Are fast food joints going to start get paid for their waste oil? Will traffic jams smell like french fries? What about the pesticides used on the crops from which the oil was processed? The name of this next Call probably doesn’t indicate the heating source, but we can always hope, right? Always investigate…
