Interview with Dave Cronen: I am not a big fan of yard sales per se but I have to admit when you lump them all together for 400 miles (from Michigan to Alabama), they do have a draw. Once a year, usually in August, on a secondary road called Route 127, buyers and sellers meet to buy and sell their wares. One thing I have noticed is the inordinate amount of kitchen stuff. One is an item, 15 is a collection. I’ve enjoyed photographing the patterns and shapes and the colors of America throughout my career as a photographer.

Jenn Oliver writes our column Culinary Chemistry. She has a Ph.D. in science, where she explains the scientific aspects of what really goes on when you cook (the next Harold McGee?). She’s been running a gluten-free blog, Jenn Cuisine, since 2008 and her kitchen is more like a laboratory than a kitchen. She’s focuses her chemical calculations and experiments on figuring out how to make traditionally glutinous food gluten-free.

Alessandro Guerani‘s food photography approaches true art.

Photo courtesy of Alessandro Guerani.
Food is not, after all, only a story of taste. It is about texture and how it feels in your mouth. It is about whether it looks appetizing, how it is presented on the plate. It is about the smells coming from the kitchen, gently seducing you to the table, and the taste you have while it’s in your mouth and the aftertaste that lingers. It can even be about sound, for example, when the alcohol goes up in flames as they flambé your crêpes Suzette.
Guerani manages to bring all the senses together in a single photograph, even though the smells, texture and other senses are not concretely present. It remains, after all, a photograph, but a photograph like none other, because though visually beautiful, it takes you beyond the confines of visual.
Take a look and let us know what you think.
You can see more of Alessandro’s photos on his website, Fotografia.

Rosa Mayland ponders on the meaning and significance of food in everyday life in her column Rosa’s Musings. She has the advantage of growing up in an incredibly multicultural environment and speaking many languages. She runs the site Rosa’s Yummy Yums. “Terroir with TLC” is the word chez Rosa — quality ingredients, regional and seasonal produce, made with tender loving care — and this is reflected in the recipes she creates.
Rosa recently started photographing in black and white and we find them delightful. This is her first one-woman show of B&W food photography.

Prerna Singh runs the award-winning food blog Indian Simmer, which was a finalist in the prestigious Saveur Best Food Blogs this year. Her photos are at the same time sophisticated and rustic, giving a natural yet polished look to the simplest of foods. She grew up in India, but now lives in the U.S. with her husband and daughter.
Prerna uses a Canon 50mm f1.4 lens and photographs in natural light, occasionally using reflectors.
