Food Family - Part1
Jul 16 2007, 12:17 PM EDT For anyone reading this that is already in the Food Industry you will already know this and probably have similar stories to tell, but for those of you outside the food family, you don’t know what you are missing. Now you might have noticed that I used the terms – Food Family – well, that’s because, that is what it is. In many ways the Food Industry is just one big extended family, with all its ups and downs, its crazy relatives and - its sense of belonging. Now I was having an off day on Friday and just couldn’t get myself out of this “Bland Gravy” day I was having, now that in itself is rare because I am definitely a “Life is Peachy” type of guy. Well, it was a typical day in every other aspect, which meant I was moving like a bean in a coffee grinder, and I really didn’t have time to sit and ponder why I felt like a soufflé that had just fallen. So I was at one of my first stops, a great little Farmers Market at the Pearl Brewery here in San Antonio, when I ran into Margaret from “Al’s Gourmet Nuts”, great gifts and really fun to cook with, who quickly realized that the only thing spicy about me that morning was the handful of Al’s CINNAMON PECANS that I had in my hands. Next thing I know she is talking to me about helping them with recipes and maybe even being their Demo/Corporate Chef, well, if you know me, that was like the Caramelize sugar on a wonderful Vanilla Bean Crème Brule`. That gravy was beginning to taste a little better. Do you find this valuable? |
