Yet again, another lovely meal Koko. Wish I had some tuna right now,
as I would make it for breakfast. Some days I struggle to decide what
to make (like this morning). Bonus point for utilising eggs, I have
more than I know what to do with and can't even give them away at the
moment as most everyone else has the same 'problem'.

Thank you JeBus, it's been a while since I've made this, and now I'm
wondering why because it's so darned good <pssst...just between you
and me, a little of your favorite mustard it is pretty darned good on
it too.>

Some dijon sounds like a good idea.

When we kept chickens and had a glut of eggs I used to crack them,
beat them in batches of four or six, and freeze them. Defrosted raw
beaten egg is fine for scrambling, making cakes, custard, omelette,
batter etc.

When we got really over-run with eggs, all the dogs and cats ate a raw
egg every day.

Thanks Janet, good idea and I'll do that.

Yep, the dawg gets a couple of eggs a day, the cats OTOH won't touch
egg in any form... why I don't know.

I've been meaning to get down to the docks and buy a whole albacore tuna.
I pay $2.25 a pound for them!

When I clean one, I take out the four "loins" but there is always some meat
left over around the fins, behind the head, and along the spine which I
scrape off with a spoon. That meat makes an excellent scramble and I have
also made pretty tasty meatballs with it.

Indeed. Most of her pictures are way too bright with whacked out white
balance. All that care put into arranging the food and taking the
photos all for naught.

Well I think you are mean! I love that koko shares recipes as she does. It
makes a lovely change from those who are only here to be nasty!

Yeah koko is awesome. Pretty much everything she shows off here I would
love to eat, and I am picky as heck!

Keep it up koko.

Whine, bitch, complain. People post pictures you hate them. Don't post
pictures, they don't cook. You can't have it both ways. Please provide
proof you're a professional food photographer.

As if his pictures are all perfect, which they aren't. If they want to change the characteristics of the pics all they need is a FREE copy of IrfanView. They can change nearly every aspect of the pictures that they want.

I see Brookie is still using those gawd-awful plates for his pics yet...never learns...too bloody stubborn.

I love Irfanview.

My problem (which I don't really consider a problem in the grand scheme
of things) is camera manuals suck. For the longest time I couldn't
figure out how to turn the flash off.

Flash issues aside, not everyone has a picture-perfect setting with
exact lighting conditions at the time the meal is ready.

I don't generally take pictures of food. First and foremost, I'd rather
eat it than try to make it look perfect for the critics. Meanwhile, the
plated food gets cold.

look through the viewfinder and move your body or the camera around
until you get a view that is better, has better color and lighting.
You don't have to just point and shoot.
