Comments on: Pot Roast Isn’t Pretty, But… http://www.blakemakes.com/pot-roast-isnt-pretty/ a food blog Thu, 09 Sep 2010 10:19:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Blake http://www.blakemakes.com/pot-roast-isnt-pretty/comment-page-1/#comment-114 Blake Sat, 29 Sep 2007 15:33:01 +0000 http://69.89.31.129/~blakemak/?p=53#comment-114 Hey Heather, I'm revealing an entirely new design to Blake Makes next week. After then, I'll do a post and let you know how I capture my pics. But for now, my secret is the sun and a setting on my camera. I have a small kitchen with one window. Mid-afternoon, the sun is perfect, so rule #1 is have good light. Rule #2 involves the Macro setting on my camera. It's not that I have an amazing camera (Canon Powershot Elph SD450), but I discovered the digital macro setting which allows me to get really close to the food. I always like to get in the face of the food. I'll post more next week. Hey Heather,

I never really use seasoning mutations (not that there's anything wrong with them, I've just never used them). I may sprinkle some Tony's over the occasional dish, but this pot roast is just salt and pepper and a sprig of thyme. Simple, but delicious. bk I’m a hard core, whole food believer.

Anything else like garlic pepper or onion seasoning? My MIL uses the onion soup packets, but I find that sometimes the roast comes out too salty.
