ラーメン Ramen||Utah Food Photographer||

–Utah Food Photographer–
Have you ever tried making ramen?! Well, I have to say that this is one of the most time consuming meal to prepare, but Oh! it's so worth it! I bought the soup and ramen (OK. I cheated a little), but the meat and eggs and all the other preparation took a long time. I'm not sure if I will make this soon, but it sure was tastey and very filling!

When I was out of town one weekend, I came home with this: Homemade Hamburger. I don't know why, but do you think when your husband cooks food for you, it looks and tastes extra better? I think so! On top of that, homemade hamburger is healther and all you can eat!

Ingredients:
Lettuce, Tomato, Mushroom (My favorite), Groud Beef, and Cheese

Manicotti: Provo, UT |Food Photography|

Lately, I am being a pasta girl. Not just boil pasta and put tomato sauce kind of a girl, but like Manicotti girl. I stil can't say it right. It took longer to cook than I thought (Let's not include the time to set up to take pictures of warm Manicotti), but I loved my new recipe! I got full so quickly and had enough left overs for the next day. I used my scarf for the background and used my NEW family member, Nikon D600! This is the first picture I took with my new baby. Oh boy! I can't stop smiling :)

Manicotti: from Recipe Girl (I didn't use all the cheese from the recipe and used cheese we've already had instead. I think as long as the inside cheese is good to go, it still tastes good)

Wheat Bread and Clam Chowder Soup: Orem, UT | Food Photography |

This bread making class was an attempt to revenge my first homemade bread failture. I made my first homemade bread last year and it did not turn out the way I wanted (OK. Outside looked pretty good, but...you know). I asked a chef Stephen to help me out with another project: Homemade Bread. Because he is so talented and thoughful, he let me make clam chowder soup for dinner. Delicious! You can judge what you think about this wheat bread, but I feel good about it after seeing my husband eating my homemade wheat bread with no hesitation.

お寿司 Sushi, Japanese Food: Provo, UT | Food Photography |

This is one of our favorite foods to make when we want to eat fish. Yummmm... We get tuna fish from Costco (It's usually around $15 and will feed two people).

Here is the insturction for those tuna lovers:

1. Put tuna in the freezer over night
2. Cut tuna the size you want 
3. Heat up the pan beforehand
4. Sear tuna just around the edges
5. Serve it with sesame dressing (Get the Japanese sesame dressing. It is the best!)

Cheesecake: Provo, UT | Food Photography & Lifestyle Photography |

Yes, I decided to take a leap of faith and decided to bake a cheesecake A-gain for Valentine's Day. Uncle Stephen is a master baker, and he was kind enough to let me come over to complete this secret mission. This cheesecake was two-day process. First, you make the cheesecake and let it sit in the fridge over night. Then, you make the cherry topping the day of. I took this mission very seriously since I was present with a chef. I don't know if I can ever replicate this, so why not show off when my cheesecake looks professional looking? AND, I challenged myself to do more food photography. Enjoy. Happy Post-Valentine's Day, everyone!
