Pappardelle Alla Casa Mia

Got to try this. Like your images well presented. You need to put this in the “Food group”

Wow John what a lovely photo and good cook you must be.

And he cooks too!. WOW…. Now that makes me hungry….and few things seem to make me hungry these days!. :) xx

A very well presented food image John. Looks like Chef quality. I agree. Simple foods often look & taste the very best… There is such a large niche for this kinda image.

Excellent !!! :)

This look delicious!!!! I appreciate you added the recipe. I sauted some morals last night as a side dish with pasta. First time tasting morals.

The taste was rich, but a rubbery consistency I didn’t expect, is this normal?

Two of my favourite things. Photography and cooking!!! I am going to try this but I think I will add some chorizo or torn chicken!! Great picture too!

oh wow, when can i eat.great work

Excellent capture John.

I agree with David, and maybe add some Chorizo.

Point taken ‘Chef’ LOL

beautiful layout…one of my favorite dishes…..you have it perfect…terri

Excellent shot. Jon I would had sprinkled some chopped parsley on the tagliatelle.
Bon appetite Hans

Now you make me hungry…& thanks God you’ve given the recipe. I’ll be busy cooking today…yummmmm!!!

Congrats John on your wonderful yummy looking gorgeous image.

Oh yum yum, my cherry tomatoes and chillies are ripening nicely so I should be cooking this delicious sounding/looking recipe by about the end of this week. Thankyou very much John, and I feel the competition has a worthy winner:-)

That’s very kind of you to say so Jenny, bon apetitto!

I’m getting hungry John….....great image,fine details,well presented…....what sort of light did you use if I may ask ??

Thank you for kind your comment Hans, believe it or not this is just diffused daylight (overcast) through my kitchen window. Couldn’t have done better if I had used studio flash!

wow this is such an appealing image, it looks so inviting and i hope you don’t mind i printed off the recipe as it sounds so delice and for sure i would enjoy this dish. thanks so very much, excellent job, P

I’m nowhere near a good enough cook to try making this, but you’ve made it look so delicious, I’d love to get a chance to eat it! Excellently photographed with wonderful colours, composition, lighting and textures!

Thank you for your comments Gerda. I’m sure you could cook this. Tomatoes, garlic, oil – bung in oven, add mushrooms after ten minutes. Cook pasta, chuck in handful of spinach at halfway – serve!

Damn, Now I am hungry, Thanks for your art!

I wanna be just like you when I grow up.

Pay attention if one day you will prepare it for me, I am italian.
Buon appetito! Not Bon appetitto.
Cheers

John you are very kind, to be in London for me is possible this year.
I will keep you updated.
Sorry if I correct your “appetito” but now the description is perfect like the picture.
Please don’t be very severe with my broken English in the future :-))
I have been delighted to see your old pics for many reasons, I will explain it to you in a bubblemail otherwise we go OT. Some locations I have clearly identified, very easy, they are in the quarter I live.
Great pleasure John.
Cheers

You Should add this to the Recipe group.

Feb ‘09

John, this looks wonderful and of course sounds wonderful…both jobs are excellent…congrats on your well deserved feature!!

This looks sooooooo good…i am licking the screen!!!!!!

Very creative and wonderful layout of ingredients and final product, looks so colourful and yummy!

Thank you for a such a kind comment Judy. I think this works because of the overhead viewpoint which seems to put us in closer contact with the food, rather than the conventional three quarters side on viewpoint. Likewise, the wide angle 20mm focal length lens gives a more “in your face” perspective making the pan “jump out” at you. Must follow my own hints more often, lol! :-))

Beautiful image…lighting perfect…and the food looks delicious!

Beautiful comp and light….it looks so yummy…I love this series…says she licking the monitor lol!

Wow riquisimo! Delicious! It looks almost 3D or is it just my imagination?

Wow! Love the colors and lighting. Looks absolutely delicious! :)

You could add it to the challenge here

Oh you have been busy, another luscious looking meal, the colours are so rich too, fantastic presentation John, you’ll be publishing a cook book next LOL
