Red Onions as Fireworks, Union Square Market, NYC – 3:09PM Wednesday, June 24, 2009
I couldn’t help but think of the 4th of July, post processing these puppies. It wasn’t until a “root mask” was made and the contrast boosted that these absolutely incredible roots revealed themselves, metaphorically, as a trajectory of sparks. Later in the week I whipped up a stir fry with these guys – some fresh broccoli, snap peas and carrots and a nice chunk of broiled salmon marinated in mirin, garlic, ginger and soy sauce on a bed of somen noodles. I have to learn to plate this stuff. I can cook. I can’t plate. Maybe I just need a stylist.
Happy 4th.
