nikondiments?


double post! this one is mostly about showing off the fact that chris finally worked out how to use the nikon in less-than-perfect lighting. hurrah! this was friday night's quick chicken burger dinner. we raced home after a late evening at the good ship lollipop and stocked up with supplies en route. alas it wasn't till we got home that i realised we were outta mayo. chicken burgers without mayo? no way jose! luckily i had my new skye gyngell book on hand and, armed with my new mini food processor, we whipped some up together.

it went like this:
3 x egg yolks in the machine with the juice of a lemon, 2 teaspoons of dijon and a pinch o salt n pepper. then, with the motor running, a steady (and fine) stream of olive oil goes in until you've fed it about 200ml. genius!

Two words:

tri. pod.


You're taking pictures of food. It doesn't move. You can take a 5 second exposure. And no worries about blurry stuff or grainy stuff from jacking up the ASA or whatever.

The even have little cute tripods you can put on the table.

By the way, it's been too long since I have eaten your food.
