The Year in Food
Today's site, from photographer and cookbook author Kimberley Hasselbrink,
offers an enthusiastic food blog chronicling the adventure of cooking during
the year. Gentle Subscribers will find inspiration and substance in this
inviting look at the elements which can make cooking more than mere nutritional
sustenance.
"The idea behind this site is to use food as a lens to chart the course of the
year through creative cooking and eating with an emphasis on seasonal fruits
and vegetables. And while it is about what's in season, it's also about the
moments and the meals that mark those seasons. So it's also about the people
that bring us that food. And it's about photography. And a little bit of
travel. And the things that inspire me."- from the website
One of the more notable food blogs, Ms. Hasselbrink lends a precise
photographer's eye to her globe trotting and her cookery. A recent excursion to
Cambodia yielded both a splendid photo essay and images of Cambodian foods and
cuisine. Under the site's primary Categories tab can be found A Guide to
Seasonal Foods, Brunch, Eating Well on the Road, the always essential Drinks
and Cocktails, as well as specific seasonal delights, among others. One of the
sections serves up the dramatic "Color Studies" -- vivid images of foods
usually in their natural state. Tempting recipes, striking photos, and engaging
observations infuse the blog with an appealing ambiance.
